Wonder what sets you apart from the people that seem to crush their financial goals? with their goals. These folks didn’t corner the market on goal success either, instead they just got the task DONE. Meet The Achievers: Deacon and his wife paid off $52,000 in debt in 18 months. She hit that goal in September 2016.

About $52,000 of that $147K was consumer debt (credit cards, a student loan, a car loan, a home improvement loan, etc.) We just wanted to pay off our credit cards, which seemed like a huge task since we’d struggled with it for years. Building an emergency fund also helps enormously. Get creative.

The debt included overdraft protection, mattress, car, and a credit card (post divorce stress spending, clothes to accommodate the yo yo diets and weight for 2 years, a trip to Disney World & I’m sure several things that I don’t remember because I was spending without a plan).

We paid down mostly student loans, vehicles and business credit card debt ( we already own a home outright ). For the last two years, I told anyone who would listen about us trying to make our goal of being totally debt free. If married, who initiated the debt free goal? What are your financial goals now?

I finally got inspired that we should at least start working on this huge goal of being debt free when I read Dave Ramsey’s Total Money Makeover. I wasn’t comfortable keeping only $1,000 in an emergency fund with two little ones and just one income, so we didn’t follow that part of his plan.
