The Marathon

// March 5th, 2008 // Budgeting

    Goal setting is not one of my strong suits.  But one goal I have become more and more passionate about is "CHANGING MY FAMILY TREE."  Not in the literal sense but……….. in the literal sense.

    Supermom and I were blessed with wisdom from her parents before we were married 7 years ago.  The agreement was that they would pay for the rest of her college if we waited to get married until she graduated.  Looking back on that now, I am amazed at the sacrifice they made for US, and the burden they removed from our young lives. THANK YOU.  THANK YOU Mom and Dad.

    With that wedding gift they also, subtly but confidently, (hey, how did you get us to do that and make it seem like it was our idea) got us to start a BUDGET.  We have operated on a budget since and are working towards being DEBT FREE by the end of 2010.    Thanks to the diligence of living on a budget and working our plan we can see light at the end of the tunnel.  Leaving our kids an inheritance is our goal and blessing our future grandbabbies with a debt free financial future will allow them to GIVE like no one else.
