We’re Taking the Plunge!

My husband and I have decided to jump on board with Dave Ramsey’s help, to become debt free!  Sure, it’s gonna be hard, and I’m actually kind of nervous about living on a budget, but we really have to do this now before life gets away from us any more.

We’ll have a child driving in less than 4 years, and then we’re looking at college a couple of years after that, and how can we afford that??  So, it’s now or never….. I will be occasionally posting updates on our successes, as well as failures, to kind of keep me accountable in a way.  But for now, we are set on accomplishing Baby Step #1, wish us luck!

Anyone else have any kind of advice on budgeting or getting out of debt, and what methods have you used/tried?

My Daddy and Janiece have been doing the Dave Ramesy thing for
they say using the cash envelope system has helped them a ton.

Good for you! Brand and I have lived by Dave’s Rules for years.

It’s not always fun to live like no one else, so later we can live like no one else.!

Enjoy!

We did Dave Ramsey almost 2 years ago. Best thing we ever did. It was hard at first, but got easier. Good luck!! (Dave makes it so fun!)
