I put my first payment down on my student loan - that is, the first payment I've ever made on purpose, without the NSLSC taking it out of my account. At the monthly payment rate I'm set at (almost $400 a month) my loan will be paid off in just over nine years. I can make payments whenever I want, of course.

Original Repayment Amount: $32,449.36
Amount Owing at the NSLSC: $32,133.84

Only nine years to go. I'll make it a thing to do before I'm 40.

It strikes me that most of the things I've always wanted/planned to do were things that I saw myself doing in my twenties. When I was a teenager, I always had an idea of what my twenties would be like. But I have no idea what life will be like in my thirties. No clue. It's grand.
