To Be Thankful.

Despite all the turmoil in the world there are so many things we have to be thankful for. Especially as Americans.

I am thankful for my wife and 2 kids. To think that I am a husband and dad is something that was the furthest thing from my mind in 2006. Now just a couple years later, my life has taken a turn to the more serious/responsible side. I never thought that would happen, so I am thankful for that! haha.

I am thankful for my health. For me, without my good health it would be difficult to have a positive outlook. The pre-cancer spot on my back came back clear Monday at the dermatologist, so that was good news for the holiday season for me!

I am thankful for my job. Money isn't the most important thing in life, but it's definately in the top 5.

I am thankful for my friends. We have so much fun together. Grant it, it's more difficult to find time these days but it's always great to see friends!

These are just some of the things I am thankful for this holiday season. What are some of the things you are thankful for?

Money Stuff

In the summer of 2000, I began listening to Dave Ramsey. My new years resolution for 2003 was to stop using credit cards, even though I paid off the balance every month. Obviously it took me a couple years to buy into Dave's philosophy. In 2007 I got marred and made my wife get rid of all her credit cards too.

In March 2011, we paid off our house which was the last of our debts, and determined that we had paid off right at $250,000 of debt in 48 months.

It's now August 2013, and let me tell you, LIFE IS SWEET with no payments on anything. If you need more info on the plan, look up Dave Ramsey and do exactly what he says.
