We have been debt free now for six years and now being myself 55 and unemployed I am so glad we were able to do that. I have an AAS in my chosen field (Electronics Technology) and 14 years of experience and I have not been able to find a job of any kind since 10/30/08. My wife is still employed and we are blessed financially. I would say becoming debt free is real good advice in this present economic environment.

Sounds like you made some very wise choices Cary! I wish I would have been smart enough to do that myself. Good luck with finding a job...surely things will turn around sooner or later and open up some opportunities.
