Hello World!

The purpose of this blog is to track my journey climbing out of my mountain of student loan debt with my tips and tricks learned along the way.

So who am I? The deets:

Age: 28

Sex: Male

Job: Employee at an major US bank

Salary: about 80k +/- 5k due to bonus fluctuation

Resides: Major East Coast City

I plan to use Mint.com to track my spending, income, and investments (yes I have a little saved too!)

I save enough to get the full match at work. I use the Roth 401(k) option and am lucky to have a 6% dollar for dollar match.

My other savings are in online bank accounts in the form of cash and a small amount in a Roth IRA.
