re: #93 Decatur Deb

Yup. It took us 24 years to pay off from first house payment to last. There were some wild times reselling and good times refinancing. The day we clocked the last mortgage payment made it all worth it. And it made retirement doable.

I (we) own and I consider it a dream come true. My parents never owned their own home and now I do and my boys do also (in a few years.) I look at that as success. Congrats!
