Things that have changed my life in the last 12 months
-
My 2016. Paid off all our unsecured debts (credit cards etc…), and a big chunk of mortgage. My wife was made redundant from a job she hated and now works in a job she loves which is much closer to home, and I now volunteer my spare time to coaching kids football which, considering how irritating I find kids, is extremely rewarding.
Hope all the forum people had a great year, and have an even better one next year

2016 has been a good year for me. After being out of work for 3 years:

I had an exciting year. In chronological order… moved back to the US, got a new dog, got engaged to my gf of 9 years, finished my PhD, got married, got a tenure track job at a research university, moved across the country and started the new job. I'm grateful for everything but also hoping for a less eventful, less stressful 2017.
