Total Money Makeover Update: April 2008

It’s been four months since Chris and I began our slightly modified Total Money Makeover plan, and despite our lack of what author Dave Ramsey dubs “gazelle intensity,” we’ve made some decent progress toward eliminating out non-mortgage debt.

Taking Baby Steps & Rolling the Debt Snowball

As most of you know, my husband and I have been following the steps in Dave Ramsey’s Total Money Makeover (TMM) book since the start of the year. Actually, we inadvertently got started last September with a more limited plan to aggressively pay off the $4200 we put on our HELOC in June when […]
