    Default Starting my snowball

    Babystep #1 is completed and I'm moving onto Babystep #2. YAY!

    It's time to sit down and really look at our debt. I've added it up and it's scary! DH and I are going to sit down and have our first budget meeting to set the budget and write out a schedule for our snowball. Hopefully, we'll be on the same page and there won't be a lot of arguing. I really want to be able to work together on this...I've been carrying the burden of the finances by myself for too long.

    Wish us luck!

    I wish you the best. My husband and I are doing the same thing after 19 years of marriage. I guess it's better late than never. We had a long talk with my husband's father, who is excellent at saving money. My husband is the opposite. We are doing okay, but we want financial freedom. It will hard tightening that belt but worth it in the long run!!!!
