So guys. I was recalculating our budget at the beginning of the month and it hit me: once we get moved into our new debt-free house and therefore stop paying rent, we will easily be able to live on $1,500 a month or less.

Why You Should Be Making Christmas Plans Right Now
I know, I know, we’re just starting to get Back To School under way, but my little brother jokingly suggested we get him something (really expensive) for Christmas this year, and I immediately shot back that he’d be lucky to get a box of candy. …And I’ve been thinking about Christmas every Keep Reading
How To Live On $2,000 A Month (Or Less!)
There are usually two kinds of people who want to live on $2,000 a month or less.

My Honest Review Of EBates
So several months ago, I ran into this thing called eBates.
