    Default I'm new too!

    Hello Everyone... I'm a single gal who has been dreading the "B-word" for several years now, but at 3:45 this morning, I decided that I can no longer spend the rest of my life in this financial quicksand!! I immediately signed up 'cuz I need y'alls help!

    I want to try this "no-spend" and "CC debt" countdown that I see on everyone's signature...

    Where do I start???

    Thanks in Advance!!
    ~Alam

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    How did you hear about frugal village? a link this morning
    What interests you here? to be debt free (and lose about 50 pounds)... and learn how/what to cook (my kitchen is used as storage/office space... d'oh

    What will you contribute? ... yet to be discovered

    Do you know any other members here? Nope

    How many kids? Ages? 3 Yorkies, do they count?

    Occupation? government

    Married or single? single

    Interests and hobbies? no one believes me, but I crochet... and do arts'n'crafts... I volunteer for several organizations, and I go "out" a lot which will have to be moderated now that I see that most of my money has gone to new outfits and cocktails...

    In user cp (upper left hand corner in darker blue strip) you will see where you can create your own signature. That's where you can type out your goals and update them as you kick some debt butt. Good luck!

    Welcome!! If you haven't read Dave Ramsey's Total Money Makeover, I would recommend RUNNING to the library and checking it out. It really helped me in my journey. Good luck!
    Debt free thanks to Dave Ramsey!

    ^scratch that...we have a mortgage now.
