Family Balance Sheet

OCTOBER 18, 2019

Our Debt Freedom Plan has been a long winding road. The journey started in 2012 when we bought an office building for our business and then found ourselves with a lot of debt and not enough cash flow. To ease my anxiety about our new loans, we took the Financial Peace University home course and it changed how we thought about debt.

I have used the extra money to pay off debt, fund family trips, or build up our Christmas savings. Years ago during our Debt Freedom Plan, I avoided using credit cards, not because we had credit card debt, but I was trying to limit our overall spending. Yep, I found a $20 bill while running on the beach!

I have used the extra money to pay off debt, fund family trips, or build up our Christmas savings. This trip was a reward for our years of paying off six figures of debt , and we were going to pack a lot into our week. Yep, I found a $20 bill on a morning run at the beach! Whew, got all of that!

Greetings and happy Friday. My friend Jackie over at The Debt Myth has created a Pay Off Debt App which I think is very cool. She has lived the journey of being sunken in debt and then freeing herself and now she is trying to help others do the same with her new app. I thrive in the heat and sunshine.

Happy Friday Everyone! Friday is just another day of chaos. Paying off debt is hard to do. Read John’s post about his stumbles on the way to paying off his debt at The Money Principle. I wish I could say that with my usual vigour but lately the weeks have been running into the weekends.

I have used the extra money to pay off debt, fund family trips, or build up our Christmas savings. I usually donate on Friday and Sunday mornings and I missed a few days due to schedule conflicts. Over the years, I have found money through rebates, refunds, online sales, and even the ground. Plasma earnings: $207.

I have used the extra money to pay off debt, fund family trips, or build up our Christmas savings. I usually donate on Friday and Sunday mornings, but I was super busy in May and wasn’t able to get to the donation center. Over the years, I have found money through rebates, refunds, online sales, and even the ground.
