I always think about the word 'mortgage' and its root words. 'mort' meaning dead and 'gage' meaning pledge, well pretty much leaves you with a 'death pledge'. Ouch.

Getting out of debt really does make you feel free- free to save, free to spend responsibly, and free from worry about how you're going to pay off those debts. I highly recommend it!
