Sure, we have some lingering debt (a few smaller CC's and a few student loans. We could, pay all that stuff off with the bonus (the CC's will be paid off first as they have the higher interest rates) and deal with that negative equity from the Edge ST to the Explorer ST. That's all still TBD, probably will revisit once she gets that bonus in the bank (usually it's early March).
Yep, and you could convince her that you pay all debt down this year and with saving and next years bonus you could buy a car with the cashes! Or you will like how much dollar dollar bills you guys have saved in a year and want to keep doing that, so she keeps the car for another year or more. Then a few years down the line you pay the house off, and then you really feel rich without ever “buying” anything.
