<prompt> Human: Now just six more to go...But shit, its a great feeling to make that kind of progress and to know that it can in fact be done. Really encouraging for us.Main tips: 1 If you have more than one loan with a company Sallie Mae at least call and speak to a manager to ensure that you get your online payments split up so that you can choose exactly where your money is going. This was surprisingly easy. 2 Get caught up on any back interest on a specific loan thats where any money that you think is extra will end up going. 3 Throw everything at that loan whenever you can, no matter how little, multiple times a month.  <response>: I felt great when I finished mine, but Will always feel that they got the better of me for years as I paid all that interest. Ugh.
