And I was calling because my wife and I were in baby step number two, and we've made some pretty good progress.

But we've made it to our final, we call it the big dog.

It's our final big payment, and it's a student loan of $118,000.

That's one loan?

Yeah.

Yes, my wife's an occupational therapist, and that was her graduate, like, degree.

That is a big, big dog.

Yeah, that's why we named it that.

But to name my question is, it's at a 6.1% interest rate, and it makes me sick to look at the balance, and, like, it goes up, like, I mean, like, from the last time I checked it was sometime this week to, I think, last night was, like, $70.

Do I save any more money by, like, paying that weekly or –

Monthly, okay.

We're fixing their taxes, and we made around $140,000 in 2025.

Well, she's PRN-OT at the hospital, which we just had our first baby back in July.

And she was born a little early, so she's needed a little extra love, we call it.

And so she kind of put her hours back.

But she made like $29,000 this last year.

But the year before, before we were having the baby, she had made like $65,000.

Well, our daughter's fixing to, like, we're waiting for the next doctor's appointment to come up.

We're hoping that, like, she can come off, like, breathing treatments and whatnot so we can hopefully free up Mama to be able to work some more.

How much are you making?
