    Default Hello from Virginia

    Hello, I have been lurking since October and finally decided to start posting. I was searching for tips and ideas to help me spend less, when I found this site and have really enjoyed reading all the posts.

    The only debt that we have is our mortgage, the mortgage on a second house that my husband's parents live in, a Home Depot CC (0% til jan 09) and a Lowes CC (0% til jan 09). I have been reading all these tips and am hoping to pay off our houses early and save money for retirement. This site is helping me remember that alot of the things I feel I need are not truly needs but will only hurt my future goals. It's very supportive just being a reader, but now it's time for me to up my ante and become actively involved and hopefully it will provide more motivation to reach my goals.
