Let’s Throw Some Money at Our Problems: April 2015 Check-in

It’s time to check in on our debt payments and savings goals again. If you’re joining us for the first time, you can read about our decision to publicly keep track of our debt here.

Pull up those balances!

Logan’s paying off a Citi Card, which currently has an APR of 19.99 percent, and a minimum monthly payment of $47.

March 2015 Balance: 3,538.29
April 2015 Balance: 3,779.64 (Logan says she has had to use the card for work and is waiting to file expenses, hence the increase.)

I’m paying off a private graduate student loan currently serviced by Discover. The interest rate on this loan is 2 percent, and the minimum monthly payment is $147. The original balance on this loan was $22,377.

March 2015 Balance: $12,197.41
April 2015 Balance: $12,041.18
