Small victories in life are often the sweetest! As of about 10 AM today, I paid off my car loan. The taste of freedom being being debt-free is so nice.

Selling my house and cars and everything was the best feeling ever for sure.

Both our vehicles were paid off this summer. We've been eyeing the idea of purchasing a 3500 series diesel for a 5th wheel trailer.
But I ain't gonna pay $85K+ for a truck.
The used vehicle market up here is nuts right now. Any truck for sale doesn't get below 70% of retail unless it's a wreck.
And yes, it is a good feeling.
We're putting the extra cash flow into fun things with the fam.

My next goal is building some general savings. I'm putting a good bit away for retirement, but I need to increase my more liquid savings that's easily accessible in case of hardship.

Make sure you plan appropriately...
Below is best case IMO.
I'd aim to put enough away to have $3M+ minimum by 2053.

@obsolesce I've been investing a bit in rental real-estate. I call it my triple play:
- Hedge against inflation
- Life insurance policy
- Retirement plan

Every house for sale around here gets snatched up by companies for rental property. Quick lipstick reno, $2k a month for a 3/2. Which is why my house has doubled in value in 6 years of ownership. My neighbor turned down a cash offer (as is, no inspection) of nearly 300k, probably triple what he paid 12 years ago.
