re: How much did you save for retirement in 2019?

We're in the same boat. We did a restructure with a bank here in New Orleans. This was all arranged before SoFi, Commonbond, etc... really became popular and available. It's structured like a ballloon note, so that's why I'm sticking away so much cash. We currently pay $2,510 a month for the loan. More than my freaking mortgage.
If we weren't doing something overly expensive, I.e. having a nanny, I would probably refinance and let them ride. I'm just ready for them to be GONE! That $30,000 back every year will be a significant boost to my after-tax investing opportunities.

I haven’t heard of that kind of arrangement for student loans. Is that specific to docs or attorneys?
We just moved in to our “mid term” house and our newborn is in a nursery so our expenditures are high. If we can make it another 18 months, our student loans will be manageable and our car notes will be rolling off. That will give us some more space to pay down and invest....assuming we don’t have another child. You’re right, those student loans are an albatross that keeps my family from reaching the savings rates I would like to hit at this point.
