    Default Whew!

    I am happy to say that we paid off one small credit card ($300) and have our $1000 emergency fund BANKED! I have also been saving all my change in a money jar too! Small steps for many here but BIG steps for us to get out of debt!

    Congratulations!
    Bank of America is THE godfather of Hell with Wells Fargo running neck and neck. When the world ends the only things that will be left are cockroaches, Walmart, Wells Fargo and Bank of America. Not necessarily in that order. The order remains to be seen.
