[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is one penny less than 100k. We paid it down to that, and purposely put it at 99,999.99.

Minimum is $600ish, but we will keep at 36k per year (3k per month).

It’s related to dh’s career, not doctor, but extremely career-specific debt. Everyone in his career has it. Unless they came from wealthy families.

So, it’ll be done in 4y or less, whew!

Income now 120k Take home. Stands to rise this year.[/quote]

Why did you purposely put your loans at 99,999.99?[/quote]

Is there something special about that number?[/quote]

It’s not that interesting, but since it’s a funny number I’ll answer :)
We pay $3k/month usually. Especially during the pause. We got to 100k, and decided to stop about there for a few months, pick it back up this month. It was pretty much dead on 100k, so we were going to make it 100k exact. At the last second we joked, one more penny to make it 99,999.99. So it has been sitting there since July. [/quote]
