Family Balance Sheet

SEPTEMBER 9, 2014

We live in metro Phoenix, in a 70s tract house that we’ve been gradually re-doing. We also went through multiple job losses, surgeries, huge car repairs, etc. I needed to count on myself and support my son, and that meant getting my financial life in order, starting with building an emergency fund for the first time.

Family Balance Sheet

APRIL 12, 2016

Tell us about yourself. I am used to moving a lot! 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. I no longer use credit cards – only debit cards or cash. Where are you from?
