Then more than a year ago something in me changed after a health scare and I realized that it’s important to pay off debt and save more than ever. I’m currently taking care of my debt one month at a time. However, I know now that paying off debt is more important. Learning to be frugal isn’t going to happen for me overnight.

Nearly 46% of consumers say they typically consider making a financial resolution – up 31% since the first year of the survey in 2009. Saving more (52%), spending less (19%) and paying off debt (19%). One of the easiest and most overlooked ways to spend less is by re-evaluating your debt and improving your credit score.

Do you know what your credit score is? You should because your credit score can help you save money. With good credit, you can qualify for special financing, reduced down payments or smaller monthly installments. My husband and I have worked to keep our credit clean, so we can have the best credit scores possible.

I made some foolish choices shortly after graduating college, burning through my savings and running up credit card bills. We bought our house in March 2009, during some of the worst of the recession and the housing bubble bursting. I still remember how long it took to pay that off and never want to be there again.

We had to sell it less than 3 years after buying it, and between that and the market timing (bought in 2009, sold in 2012), we were lucky to come out of the whole situation with our original mortgage paid off completely by the sale! I was in 4th grade, and had 2 younger siblings when they began their debt-repayment journey.
