Our Debt Free Story

We made some really lame financial decisions in the early years of our marriage. When we got serious and took Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University class, we started to change our family tree.

The journey is far from over, but we’ve kicked it in the pants and are now debt free. It’s not been easy, but it’s sure been rewarding.

We also paid some stupid taxes along the way to being debt free as well.

I first heard about FPU through your blog a while back. My husband and I are taking it (just finished Dumping Debt” and it is amazing! Thank you so much for posting about it! If you two hadn’t posted, my husband and I would probably still be putting ourselves in debt. We’re expecting out first child Mid-April so this is a great time to get a hold of our money!

I was doing some reflecting today and realized it was your blog and Justin Bennett who gave me the courage and motivation to pay off $11,621.23 in 7 months I have quite a bit more to go, but I am so proud! Thank you Kelsey and Eric! I truly enjoy reading your blog and applying pieces of your life into mine. I am teaching Financial Peace University (we are on week 6!) and I can see how the class has helped others. So I feel like you have “paid it forward” with your blog and have touched so many lives! Thank you!
