Happy Birthday to Me

Today I have finally turned 25 and am glad I am at the point where I am with my life. I remember back when I was 15 what high school was going to be like, and then at 20 dealing with the challenges of college. Now at 25 it seems like what was once so complex is now much simpler than it used to seem. Sure I have made mistakes, made good choices and bad ones, got into some debt, but I’m finally working on moving towards a more positive direction.

So for the past few weeks I have been listening to The Dave Ramsey Show and am starting to understand why people become motivated by him to handle their debt and take control of their money. It isn’t completely him that makes this happen, it’s the callers who have real life situations probably much similar to some of our own, and people almost help other people through the show. At any rate my wife got me his Total Money Makeover book for me to read about his system. I also went on his website and found his software for only $10 along with another book I want to read, The Millionaire Next Door. I am cautious to consider his system because he does not believe in credit period.
