I LO...Welcome, Vanessa!!! Thanks for commenting :)<br /><br />I LOVE Dave Ramsey. I'm so glad my husband and I took FPU; it really changed the way we look at money. Good luck with your plan, it might not be easy, but it'll be soooo worth it!<br /><br />PS - Your son is so stinkin cute!!! That's a great picture of the two of you!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10541303894363720054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-668857818442178009.post-37572927765708015882013-03-01T14:14:00.234-05:002013-03-01T14:14:00.234-05:00Basically we are super cheap!

Basically...We're using Dave Ramsey's plan. Basically budgeting every month and assigning each dollar a job. I used to give ourselves "cushion" but realized that I would over spend anyway. I needed to learn discipline to stay on track so that works better for us (for now, anyway!).<br /><br />We've also started tithing more. Not as much as we should, but we're working on it =)<br /><br />If we stick to our plan, we're on track to pay off everything by the end of next year! <br /><br />Congrats on reaching your financial goals =)<br /><br />PS- new follower from I Choose Joy's FB postVanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17554832916785604228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-668857818442178009.post-55666597779352896032013-03-01T13:42:54.518-05:002013-03-01T13:42:54.518-05:00Thank you for your wonderful comment, Sara!

The thought had never occurred to me but it made total sense, once I thought about it. Even if it doesn't come in the form of a traditional paycheck, everything we have comes from the Lord.<br /><br />Love this, and all your financial posts. Thank you so much for your willingness to let us peek in on this part of your life!Sara Evanchickhttp://www.saraevanchick.comnoreply@blogger.com
