It started with $40,000 in consumer debt (vehicles, credit cards, small student loan) and then sold our home and eliminated the $140,000 of mortgage debt.

Carrie downsized and sold her excess on Craigslist and put it towards debt. Amanda & Daniel had yard sales and sold items on Craigslist and put it towards debt. She offered to do people’s taxes, or get their bookkeeping organized in exchange for a discount on her rent, or car repairs. That would keep you on budget!
