Monday’s MST: Electricity Bill!!!

Monday’s Money Saving Tip: Is your electricity bill killing your budget?  It’s August in Texas and SOOOOO hot!  The only thing to do is STAY INSIDE or immerse yourself in a pool.  The fact that we have to drive to our’s since we don’t have one, is reason enough for me to just stay inside and not go anywhere!  A higher electricity bill is inevitable during

Monday’s MST: How CARS Can Help You Pay Off Debt

Monday’s MST: Recommended Spending %

Now that I’m more involved with the budget, I’ve had more interaction with the “blue book” that holds our life in it (aka…our budget/finances).  As I was going through some of our old pages, I ran across a page I thought was very informative!  It has recommended spending percentages from your household income.  This was based off of some research Ryan did on the internet

Monday’s Money Saving Tip: B-U-D-G-E-T!

Monday’s Money Saving Tip: B-U-D-G-E-T!

MONEY is a huge concern in our nation.  Do you know that the Bible speaks of money more than 800 times?  Do you know that 70% of all Americans live paycheck to paycheck?  Are you tired of the get-rich schemes?  Do you want to have financial freedom?  If so, please take a minute to get a pad and pen so that you can take some notes.  I wish the

DAVE RAMSEY and my wonderful husband who took the time and effort to research and implement Dave’s money makeover tactics!  This is my first “financial” post since deciding to use my blog to help others become debt free and not just to read about my adorable baby!  Haha!  I’ve been asked numerous times about how we paid off debt, so I thought I’d finally blog
