<prompt> Human: Heres a graph showing my debt and payments over time just for my federal loans associated with my bachelors degree. Im sharing this because 1 Im proud of myself, 2 I want to share good news with the community who helped me out along the way, and 3 motivation for others.I followed the avalanche method as explained in the wiki. Some things to consider when looking at the numbers in my pic: In 2011, I made 12hr and living expenses rent, water, electricity, waste, food, gas were roughly 800month. I also enrolled back in school to get my masters degree. In 2012, I made 18hr and living expenses stayed at 800month In 2013, I made 25hr for the first half of the year while living expenses stayed at 800month. I also received my masters degree shortly after June of 2013. Masters degree cost me on average 5,000 a semester roughly 25,000 in total for tuition only In 2013, I took a job offer that doubled my salary and moved me to an area that more than doubled my living expenses. I used this year to pay off my 10k of credit card debt while starting savings for a 6 month emergency fund and heavily funding my 401k and ROTH IRA In 2014, I received a bonus and raise which allowed me to aggressively pay off my debt in the graph thats where my monthly payments jump from about 200 to 1,000 From 2011 to 2014, I cooked 95 of everything I ate shout out to rslowcooking. I also rarely purchased new or expensive personal items, and when I did it was for friendfamily experiences like music festivals, holiday vacations, etc.I do want to acknowledge that I feel very privileged how this all turned out...the fact I was able to put myself through school by borrowing money from the gov, kind organizationsindividuals who helped with scholarships and grants, living in a relatively cheap area of the western US before relocating, having a supportive group of friends and family who helped via odd jobs paid under the table for additional cash, random acts of meals, occasional lending of vehicles, etc. I think this entire adventure was a 333333 combination of hard work by myself, help from others, and just plain old luck. Like anyone else I had ups and downs but in the end Im grateful and thrilled to be debt free for now. Good luck to everyone else out there!  <response>: Nice work
