We are working to be debt free! We are using the Dave Ramsey plan and working through the baby steps. We have accomplished Baby Step #1-Set up a $1000 emergency fund. We opened a new savings account in a bank other than the one where our checking account is. This makes it more of a hassle to get to it.
Now we are working on Baby Step #2-Pay off all debt, other than the mortgage using the debt snowball. We've never had a whole lot of credit card debt. I did pay off the one card I had a balance on recently. I need to get that thing cut up! That leaves us with only ONE debt to get paid off, my car. I had the bank increase my auto payment by $150 last month. I was gonna save as much as I could every month and just make extra payments, but I don't trust myself to do it!
