That's worth about 5 meals right there. My gf and I survived on pasta and sauce, along with peanut butter and jelly for about a year.

In regards to credit card debt, I had a few thousand after graduating college. I sold my car to pay it off and rode a bike/car pooled to work for a few months. It sucked but you gotta do what you gotta do. Now I've got zero credit card debt and $13k in loans left. No TFB though . She's got $28k in loans...
Ive gotta admit man, thats really cool you are active in reducing your debt. Most people wouldnt give up their car or other luxuries for the life of them. Im sure when all your debt is completely gone it'll be a sweeet feeling!

On that note I know some people with $50,000 in debt or more and they just dont care...
