    Thumbs up He's Finally Sees It

    I sat down today and wrote it all down and showed fiance expenses money brought in and he figured it out.
    He finally said I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
    He jsut thought we were so in deep we could not shovel our way out..
    Baby step 1 will be stepped up now.
    Thank Goodness

    That's great news! It's much easier to work with someone against debt instead of trying to do it all yourself.

    That is the greatest thing getting your husband onboard. It will be easier now getting out of debt.

    That is how I got my hubby turned on to this, as well. I wrote it out, how much we get, what we'd need to get by, and wrote down the snowball on our debts. When I had an actual date written down that we'd have no payments the lightbulb went off.

    So very happy for you, Holly!!!
