All I can lend you is moral support, because I'm in the same position. I spent eighteen months doing the Debt Snowball, getting rid of the easy debt, and now I'm left with my colossal home-equity loan (which is really a holder for all my old credit card debt). It's $20,000 with an interest-only minimum payment of $150. I'm proud that I've paid $350/month this entire year, but that's still only knocked it down a thousand bucks. I have a <em>long</em> way to go, but I'm going to keep plugging at it. You're right: slow and steady wins the race. <em>Financial Reflections replies:  That's great!  Keep at it.  You are an inspiration.</em> Keep at it!
