You're so brave and inspirational to share your debt story - loooots of us [most of us?] sadly have too much debt, so it's empowering to see you choose to tackle it and share how you did it. Awesome! Popping over via your sweet comment on my website :) Lucie xx<br /><br />P.S. Love your sense of style - gorg. I see you like a bit of DIY, too!

It's not easy to part with a large sum of money. And if I hadn't already been making an effort to get out of debt you better believe I would have blown that money. Thank God I learned before I had the chance to let that happen. And good for you, too - it's definitely a life changing experience!

Our philosophy is if we don't need it and don't have the CASH to purchase it...then we don't buy it! A great philosophy to live by. <br /><br />Someday we will resize our house to a smaller size (because it really is too big) and smaller more manageable mortgage payment and then be entirely debt free!! <br /><br />Again....I'm really proud of YOU!!Lemonade Streethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07301598710241385739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4307393871572843403.post-67616624820360981092012-08-10T08:51:23.939-07:002012-08-10T08:51:23.939-07:00CONGRATS!!!

We had been following Dave Ramseys plan, and because of that, we put everything toward our debt, and were debt free! We were excited, but people would say, 'well that cheating, or thats not the same, you got the easy way out.' and maybe yeah a little, but if we got that money any earlier, we would have spent it all on silly stuff, and kept our debt. So thank you for sharing your story! DEBT SUCKS! :o) Scream it from the Mountain tops, 3,2,1 "I'M DEBT FREEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!"TessBensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07523643141378124504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4307393871572843403.post-83490594002016605222012-08-09T18:46:37.752-07:002012-08-09T18:46:37.752-07:00That's got to be an amazing feeling!
