And then the lender, also things like the original amount that you borrowed and how long you've had the loan for.
Because if you've had a loan for 15 years versus two years, very different options.
And then, excuse me, on the table, we also have the repayment amount, how often as well.
And then any notes that you want to give us.
And you might find that even writing that list for yourself gives you a really clear idea of where you need to start.
Sometimes the hardest part is just writing down everything that you owe.

But it can also help you plan really well.
You know, you might say that there's one that's really close to being finished.
And then you can just put an extra $10 or $20 on that debt and get rid of that and then add that original repayment onto the next one.
You might decide, oh, look, that one's only $300 left.
I'm going to sell something.
