    Default New Goal

    I'm setting a new goal for myself. Our total CC debt and car loan is $12,250.13. I am giving DH and myself ONE YEAR. We ARE going to pay all of this off and be debt free except our mortgage. I'm putting every extra penny to pay off our debt! Right now I'm reading The Complete Tightwas Gazette and I've been listening to Dave Ramsey every night (he's on 10-midnight here) to inspire myself. I'm getting really excited about the idea of doing this. When we're debt free I can quit my job and have another baby so I'm GOING to do this!!

    You can do it! We are paying off the rest of our debt this year as well.

    It's actually fun trying to think of new and creative ways of doing things that you would normally pay for.
