Was there a particular event? We have led 7 sessions of Financial Peace University mostly to keep ourselves motivated. We ate at home a lot and watched our food budget carefully. We still allotted a lot of money for food, but we were careful not to go too far over budget. What are your financial goals now?

Personally, budgeting has allowed us to control of our money, reach financial goals, and start planning for our dream life. Write down any events/holidays/activities that will require funds for the month that you are planning, along with a projection of what you’ll need. – Food: groceries, meals out, school lunches.

It took me five years to pay off my debt but two of those years I had a job loss, I was taking care of my grandparents and I had lost my motivation and drive to pay off the debt. Was there a particular event? And I cut back on lifestyle – cooking food at home, taking the bus to work vs driving and paying for parking, etc.
