According to CNN Money article Average cost to raise a kid : written in 2013, that cost is $241,080. Hopefully this isn’t a reason used to justify not having children, they are well worth the cost! Assisted and graduated living arrangements also can cost you a big buck. The biggest lifetime expenses we can encounter.

Just stop using disposables. From the time they start school at around 5 years old until they graduate from high school, the average student can generate 871 pounds of needless trash that we have to deal with. Make 2013 the year you move from disposable lunches and materials to reusable ones. It’s quite simple, really.

FEBRUARY 4, 2015

As many students do these days, we had tens of thousands of dollars of debt by the time we graduated with our Masters degrees. By the grace of God, it took us just under 9 months to pay it off. In January 2013 there was a blog post on Keeper of the Home that first awakened me to the concept of living debt free.

Our Debt Freedom Plan Started in 2013: The year 2012 was quite exciting for me and my husband. And to be honest, we don’t regret it one bit, but things changed rather quickly in 2013 and we found ourselves with a lot of debt, not enough cash flow, and very little set aside for emergencies. We made a lot of changes since 2013.
