It's a good path to be on, financial freedom is so rare in this debt fueled economy...stay strong and keep stacking, you are way ahead of the game now!

I took a similar route after everything fell apart unexpectedly years ago. Surprised myself that I stuck to that for a few years now. I find it much less stressful and the piece of mind it brings looking back and seeing the savings instead of debt that has built up instead of mountains of crap we don't need. Since getting into precious metals, a lot of my mindset has changed for the better even helping being more mindful of spending in general.
