    Not even close to retirement age but I'm really enjoying reading the advice in this thread. Thanks for all who shared their wisdom. I'm old enough now to actually HEAR it. Wish I could of heard better in my 20s.
    Totally debt free since January 2011.
    Fully funded Emergency Fund complete December 12, 2011! Yeah!

    I think the key advice coming out of this thread is to plan. And save. We can't predict the future, but we can do our best now to not have unpleasant surprises. Or at least not as many unpleasant surprises!!! I, too, thank you all for sharing your experiences.
    Spiritual:
    "You are fearfully and wonderfully made." Please... respect life.

    Financial:
    Debt free, hoping to stay that way!

    1. Keep on writing.
    2. Get some balance in my life.
    3. Lose weight. Hopefully 5# this year. (9.5 pounds right now! Yay, Me!!)
    4. Continue to be looking for how God wants to use me this year.
