Online banks such as ING Direct make the creation of sinking funds easy: you can literally open a new subaccount with a few clicks, making it possible to have five or ten separate sinking funds according to your family’s needs. Selling on eBay, Amazon or Craigslist. Bank Your Savings. Bank your savings.

Drew works full time for Department of Defense. Farrah works part time for Department of Defense. Promotions, new jobs, side work, selling stuff, etc etc… All the time we kept the same cost of living and just banked and smacked the debt in the face. We went to our bank and wrote the last check IN PERSON.

My husband is an extremely hard worker as he works and goes to school full time. Knowing our bank account was empty, I was hoping that one of our maxed out credit cards would have enough room to get him $20 bucks worth of gas to get him to work the next day. It was the first time we consistently told ourselves NO to purchases.

After all it was not the people who caused the problem so why should they suffer while the banks get off scot-free? Several weeks ago, I made the decision that it was about time to start looking for a new full time job. They do not like this austerity business one little bit. Can you blame them?

Extra income for me meant anything that I earned above and beyond my full-time office job, from things like freelancing. I made it a habit to transfer the amount of my extra income into my account just for that purpose every single time I was paid, and I never missed it.
