Ditch My Debt: Project Savings/Payoff
http://ditchmydebt.blogspot.com/2011/03/project-savingspayoff.html
My path to ditching my family's debt for good and building wealth. Wednesday, March 16, 2011. As I mentioned in my last post, I put together a spreadsheet listing our debts, a quickie budget, grocery expenses, and a debt payoff plan. It is in no way a done deal because I'm working on preliminary income figures. The mortgage is part of the total balance, but is not on the payoff plan as yet. We have to wait and see how that will work out with our other plan that I'll talk about another day. Subscribe to D...

Ditch My Debt: Finally!!!!
http://ditchmydebt.blogspot.com/2011/04/finally.html
My path to ditching my family's debt for good and building wealth. Wednesday, April 13, 2011. We finally got hubby's March 31st paycheck last Thursday! Now I only hope his April 15th paycheck goes through the direct deposit correctly this time. I've updated the sidebar now that I've actually been able to spend some money to pay off some debt and add to some savings. Wow - doubling your HELOC payment is huge! This will really increase progress! Thank goodness the check came - crossing fingers for smooth p...

Ditch My Debt: UGH!!!!
http://ditchmydebt.blogspot.com/2011/05/ugh.html
My path to ditching my family's debt for good and building wealth. Wednesday, May 18, 2011. I can't believe I haven't posted since April 15th! I had been busy getting through my last college classes, then I got really sick, but I did start posting again at my other blog within the past week. I should have posted something here, too! Anyway.just wanted to post the latest gas purchase. I paid $3.979 this afternoon. It cost me just over $40 to fill up my tank. What are you paying for gas?

Ditch My Debt: Financial Goals
http://ditchmydebt.blogspot.com/p/financial-goals.html
My path to ditching my family's debt for good and building wealth. I'm going to write about my financial goals here. I will place the latest revision first. Some will be ongoing and will be the same for each revision, while I hope to see others removed or clarified more fully during each revision. Re-save whatever was used from the emergency fund as quickly as possible before saving for any other goals. We must be prepared for another emergency at any time so the emergency fund will be top priority.

Ditch My Debt: Reward Points
http://ditchmydebt.blogspot.com/2011/05/reward-points.html
My path to ditching my family's debt for good and building wealth. Monday, May 23, 2011. I have to say that I really love my credit union's reward points system. Even more now that they've changed it to show all the points as you acquire them for each card (debit and credit). We get 1 point for every $1 on the credit card, and 1 point for every $5 on the debit card. Every month they have featured retailers that give more points per dollar. To give you an idea of how many points it takes to get things:.

Ditch My Debt: Financial Update -- May 2011
http://ditchmydebt.blogspot.com/2011/05/financial-update-may-2011.html
My path to ditching my family's debt for good and building wealth. Friday, May 27, 2011. Financial Update - May 2011. A little financial update for everyone since I just got around to moving some money here and there. Hubby got paid today (a bit early because of the holiday on Monday) so I decided to get the ball rolling on some transfers. Some of the money I already had set aside and the rest was added with this paycheck. Transferred $501.07 to our credit card. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Curren...

Ditch My Debt: Trip Expenses
http://ditchmydebt.blogspot.com/2011/03/trip-expenses.html
My path to ditching my family's debt for good and building wealth. Wednesday, March 30, 2011. It's taking me a bit longer to get back into the swing of things after our trip. Probably because the boys started spring break a couple of days after we got back. Our expenses were not too bad considering we were gone for 4 days. And I got a hotel refund for one of us since I went along. The school's SAC and PTO paid for my portion of the hotel room! So we started the trip out with an $81.79 refund!

Ditch My Debt: Old and New 401Ks
http://ditchmydebt.blogspot.com/2011/04/old-and-new-401ks.html
My path to ditching my family's debt for good and building wealth. Friday, April 15, 2011. Old and New 401Ks. We just got my husband's new 401K set up with his new job. And surprise, surprise! We found $2,753.34 already in it! I love finding money! This is what happened:. Confusing.I know. Just stick with me here! So we set up his "Company B" 401K to have the same 10% contributed every paycheck that we've been comfortable with. No reason to lower it now even if he is making $1,000 less a year than hi...

Ditch My Debt: Paycheck Issue
http://ditchmydebt.blogspot.com/2011/04/paycheck-issue.html
My path to ditching my family's debt for good and building wealth. Friday, April 1, 2011. We had a big issue getting our second paycheck from hubby's workplace. It was the first time for direct deposit and for some reason it didn't go through. Now I've been banking with this place for 15 years and never once have we had a problem getting direct deposit set up. But for some reason this time they've decided I need to have additional numbers in order for it to go through. UGH! Subscribe in a reader. Waterma...
