Voting by My Actions

So, even though we need to focus on savings and adding money to our 2016 IRA (in 2015 we saved nothing in our IRAs), I find myself doubling up my monthly payments for my nused car (purchased in December of 2015).

Why am I doing so?  Well, we paid off Mr. Sam's 2013 truck in full as of last month.  That means that I have an extra $500 a month.  So, rather than using that $500 for savings I sent it off to Chase for my auto loan.  I'd frankly be better off putting that $500 towards our linger credit card debt (now down to $1195).

So why do I make these choices?  I much prefer killing debt than saving money.  Now don't get me wrong I love saving money and watching the balances grow in our retirement accounts.  But, I seem to get more satisfaction paying off debt.  I also am not a fan of car loans.  I'd prefer to pay cash for cars, but over the course of 2013-2015 we found ourselves buying a new truck for Mr. Sam and a nused car for me.  I seem to dislike car debt more than credit car debt, etc.

I agree paying off debts first is a better option then wondering if you should pay he debt from saving and be done with it.
