One of the things that we had to do to get started with that was to look at our budget and adjust it so that our lives would be workable. Well, even before we started the debt management, I was a stickler for money. I had to know where every single penny went and if I saw too much going to one place, it made me very unhappy. If we didn't spend a dime more than the way that I've budgeted things for the coming month, we will be able to come out about 250 dollars ahead. I'd like to hope that can happen but even if it doesn't, as long as we don't fall short we are going to be in a good position for the simple fact that it is only going to take us less than 3.5 years to be out of credit card debt.
