A little back round

I come from a lower class family and my wife comes from a middle class family. We both have one thing in common, neither of are parents taught anything good about finance just how to go get into debt. We both maxed out Student loans while in college(Myself a 2 year degree after dropping out of 1 year of a 4 year school and my wife received a Master Degree). I has starting to get fed up with the debt before my wife and tried to start a budget but Jenn was not on board yet. Then our church had a Dave Ramsey Seminar Financial Peace University. This Class started to get my wife on board. We BOTH see now that once debt free the money that will be available to us will be worth the sacrifice. Currently over half of our Money goes toward Bills pertaining to Debt not including Normal every month bills like Utilities and Insurance.

The reason i decided to Start a Blog on our journey is that maybe we can help someone not make the mistakes we have and be an inspiration to others
