Family Balance Sheet

MARCH 25, 2013

One of our budget problems is eating out at restaurants, so we cut back our restaurant budget to $100 from an average of $250 a month in 2012. At the beginning of March I was still $40 behind from January & February, but I transferred $125 to our account this month and I'll aim to get the $15 in April along with our $100 goal.

Family Balance Sheet

JUNE 16, 2015

We didn’t attend FPU until February 2014, and three weeks later we paid off our last debt. We gave up eating out, cable, driving as many places. Put it on actual paper and pull it out once in a while and look at it just to remind yourself of what you are working toward. Thank you, Lydia, for sharing your family’s story.

January & February 2020 – Life is good! However, my gut was telling me not to take out the loan. We just spent all these years paying off so much debt why would I even entertain taking out a loan, even if I thought we could pay it off quickly. We were feeling pretty good about the new year.

Feel free to start halfway through, or even have a February no-spend challenge! While it gets repetitive to eat the same thing over, and over, and OVER, I am reminded that I should be thankful to not only have food on our table each night, but to have an abundance of food at that! Challenge accepted!
