Hello... Again!
After hitting a very, very rough patch last year and into this spring.. I'm back! I loved this board when I lurked and I'm getting back into a nice game plan. I have about $15,000 in debt I would like to pay within the next 12-24 months and I also want to start throwing money into an emergency savings account, at least 3-6 months worth to start and keep going uphill from there.
This site was SO motivating to me I don't know why I walked away, especially when I did. I need it now! Look forward to more lurking and hopefully posting on my side!

Hello from Virginia
I accidently stumbled upon this site last week.
I had to really squeeze my budget due to a garnishment i got last december. Going on vacation afterwards didn't help...lol
Anyway, i sort of made a game and found that i liked living simpler and finding ways to save money.
Its nice to find a site taht motivates you to do just that.
Have a good day

I have been gone for quite sometime also (probably all summer) I think I would use the site more if I understood how a forum works. Any suggestions on where to get help on this?
