Family Balance Sheet

OCTOBER 18, 2019

Our Debt Freedom Plan has been a long winding road. The journey started in 2012 when we bought an office building for our business and then found ourselves with a lot of debt and not enough cash flow. To ease my anxiety about our new loans, we took the Financial Peace University home course and it changed how we thought about debt.

Our non-mortgage loans totaled over six figures.

2 Additional Goals: If we save the $10k early, we’d like to work on the following 2 goals. This is our very last non-mortgage loan and we send an extra payment every month as part of our Debt Freedom Plan. If not, we’ll start saving in 2019. I’ll apply that money to the debt. The Guidelines for 2018: 1.
