My husband and I make some financial goals at the start of every year. I don’t want to wait years. Tantrum aside, it’s still going to take years, but there is room for us to make some considerable progress in 2015. I’ve joined over 40 other bloggers to help us all make 2015 the best year ever!

I won’t rehash our health insurance story here, because I have written extensively about it and INCLUDED OUR NUMBERS.

Be Exceptionally Frugal.
