No, this isn't some ad or pitch for a new age debt reducing program. I'm about 2-3 months away from being debt free. Possibly sooner. I will have about 11k of revolving debt and loans lifted off my shoulders and it's almost an unreal feeling. I don't know what I'm going to do with my self then. I have no desire to buy anything like a house or car, so that eliminates 2 future big budget burdens right off the bat. You guys talk about the women created matrix some of us men live in, but I feel like the financial matrix is the real mother****er. The last 2 years have been extremely shatty for me as far as finances go, so I've learned which traps not to fall into again.
What would some of the more frugal members here suggest? Other than donating some money, I'll probably just end up putting most of my income into savings. I've been told by multiple people I should buy a house and rent it, but it really hasn't registered with me. My current salary is 72-75k a year, so I'm guessing I could go out on a limb if something worthwhile comes along. Hmmm...decisions, decisions.
