<prompt> Human: I graduated last summer and have worked since then. After building a nice emergency fund during my grace period, I put every single dollar I didnt spend towards the loan. I expected the last payment to be a load off my back. It doesnt much feel like it though. I think its largely because Im a bit too focused on my long term financial goals. In the grand scheme, this loan is a relatively small step. How do you celebrate your intermediate goals knowing theres an even more daunting task ahead?Assistant: Use half of next months extra money to buy yourself something nice. What that is depends on you, could be a trip, an evening out, a computer game, new clothes. Enjoy it as much as is possible. Then get back to work :- Human: Thats a good idea - Ill try to find some splurge that Im holding back on because of money and go for it.  <response>: definitely reward yourself. youve earned it.
