So, another thing that's been keeping me busy has been an online class by Dave Ramsey (author of The Total Money Makeover, a nationally syndicated radio host, and host of his own national TV show). This has been very informative and motivational to help us get our finances more in order to not just budget but budget well including saving ahead of time for things that may come up like Christmas so we're prepared and NOTHING GOES ON CREDIT. So that we're getting out of debt without making more debt for us on top of it.
Not only has it taught me about budgeting and getting out of debt but it helps me understand more into the retirement mumbo-jumbo, what type of home loan I should've gotten and what type I'll get in the future, tuition saving for our kids to come, charitable giving, and even insight into how to work out budgeting with my husband. It really has been a life-saver and now we actually have a plan and can see where we'll be in 5 to 10 years and have clear steps to get there. If any of you are interested in checking it out go to daveramsey.com and click on the financial peace university link and watch a free preview. NO I'M NOT GETTING PAID TO TELL YOU THIS I JUST LOVE WHAT IT'S DONE TO HELP ME SO MAYBE YOU COULD USE IT TOO.

I love Dave well Nate turned me on to his talk radio show, way to go guys we are almost debt free and it feels amazing!
Dave is the bomb. Amy and I started the program last fall. It's incredibly helpful. Watch out for cheetahs and keep on keepin on.
Just wanted you to know, Dave Ramsey is also for old folks. We wish we had known this stuff 30 years ago. Uncle Dave and I started the Financial Peace class three weeks ago and we are working on the baby steps. We think this class should be a prerequisite for marriage. But it's never too late to start. Way to go!
So, totally random, I found your blog on Audrie's and this post caught my eye because WE LOVE DAVE RAMSEY!!! Just thought I'd share and give you a virtual high five- lol. I love technology, that we can keep in tough with all sorts of people who otherwise would have been lost forever. Love your blog btw and congrats on the anniversary, what an accomplishment!
