How I paid off $34,000 in student loans in three years

Posted by Lisa Fontaine

📍 St. Louis , MO


Moved to a lower cost of living city. Took on freelance work on weekends for 18 months. Lived on 60% of my income and threw the rest at the highest interest loan first. Did not have a car payment. Used a budget every single month. Was not fun. Is now done. Net worth positive for the first time.
