I realized that I haven't had my yearly anniversary post. Bring that it is now 1 day before the end of January I will go ahead and do it now. Let it be known I am doing this rather quickly and without a lot of thought or time. Just a fair warning, my punctuation may not be great nor my sentences make sense but here I go, Here is my 5 year post
First of all I can't believe it's been 5 years since I started. Again to reiterate my story, things were really tough when I began this journey. Right around the time I started my first post I call my wife while she was at a debit only grocery store to tell her to not pay for the food we needed because I just looked at our account and we were again out of money. I was tired of not having enough and quite frankly I was upset that no one helped us. My friends were getting help from parents through rent free living, food, and money. Church members were getting help while having double the mortgage I was. My funds were dwindling. We didn't go to the movies or practically anything fun. We had medical bills that AGAIN no help from our government parents or church paid for. Quite frankly looking back now if I could do it over again I honestly probably would of quit my job found some side gig and got on Medicaid and church assistance. People who do it right are not helped at all. This is why I started this blog. To write my feeling down find out what was wrong and how to correct it. I've learned a lot along the way and I will continue write my opinions down. I'm not done because life is not fair. Not that it will ever be but at least my life has improved. This year I want to make my main focus and goal towards my top 10 ransoms as I call them
Again to reiterate what the top 10 ransoms are they are things I want accomplished before I call it quits on this blog. I will delete this blog if these ransoms are met. I don't have all memorized but some that have been met include a cruise and a house of envy. There are 2 that will be my main focus for 2019. A getaway place and my honeymoon with my honeymoon being my top priority. My wife and I have been married 12 years. The last time we had more than one night away that wasn't business related was in 2014 when we went on a ski tripfor 2 nights. I have been starting preparation for our honeymoon trip including saving money but money is tricky with a family. Anything is liable to come up. Im almost willing to just go in debt to get it done. We will see. As I have realized through my writings I'm not so concerned with credit card debt as I used to be. Credit card debt in unsecured. Credit card debt can be wiped clean. Again not my in my plans but to get my honeymoon done it may come to that.
Other than that I'm not shutting up. I may get busier and write less but I'm not going away. Not that anyone cares sometimes self gratification is very powerful. Mine just happens to be from this blog.
Anyways guys the mission is still on we have completed 5 years of it. I'm still learning. I live in a bigger house. I again don't pay interest on all debts with the exception of my house. Some of my bills are lower and overall things are better. There just still needs to be some improvement. There's always room for improvement. Again guys I warned it might be all over the place. Here's to the 6th year of writing. Hoping it's the best one yet.
