Debt update.....

It's been an exciting seven months for us here.

We decided to get on board with Dave Ramsey's debt reduction program in April and we went cold turkey.

We actually quit spending money and went on a budget. We were huge free spenders.

Since April we have paid off a significant amount of our debt. And now we actually have a great budget and have added entertainment and eating out to the budget!!

From April to September we actually didn't go out to eat like we used to. Now we have a budget for it!!

Last night my husband paid off the last of our Home equity loan.

The only debt we have left is a credit card, a second mortgage and our house.

We will be debt free within a few years!! We are very excited about that prospect!!

We have about six weeks left of our FPU class.

The poor are ruled by the rich,
and those who borrow
are slaves of moneylenders.
