    Hello everyone- newbie here. Just wanted to stop by and introduce myself. I just completed reading DR's Total Money Makeover and have fallen in love with his ideas. My husband and I have an 18 month old son and we are ready to start the BS's. I can't wait to learn more from each of you and begin my journed to be debt free.

    Hi, and welcome! I followed the DR program to debt freedom. I got a lot of encouragement from his materials and listening to his program via streaming radio on my iPod. Coming here to FV helped me stay motivated, too, and helped me squeeze even more value out of the dollars I had allotted to each category of my budget. Wishing you well on your journey!
    Totally debt free since January 2011.
    Fully funded Emergency Fund complete December 12, 2011! Yeah!
