This could be the day that you…
decide to get out of debt
start to live on a budget
start talking to you spouse
teach your kids about money
send five extra dollars to the credit card company
get rid of bad spending habits
embrace bold, significant change
choose to believe that you are worth it
choose to believe that your kids are worth it
choose to believe that your family is worth it
choose to believe that your future is worth it
stop wasting time
start redeeming the time
believe in a better life
dream a bigger dream
plan for a better tomorrow
start to rock
This could be the day – your day – the day you look back and mark as the day you finally decided to do something about your finances. For me, that day came April 5, 2005, the day that I decided that I had finally had enough – and that I was going to do something about my financial situation. This could be your day – if you make it so! Let the fear and anger and hope and promise associated with your current financial situation rise up, from deep within, and then harness that power – and rock!

Keep up the good work.
If people realized how liberating and freeing it is to be sans debt it would be more people’s day to get out of debt. Too bad everyone thinks it hard and a drag.
I thought this was going to be a haiku at first.
I decided about 3 years ago that debt wasn’t for me. So far I’m trying to get through college without debt at all. It’s hard, but its worth it and it’s working.
Sound advice. Stay out of debt and live a healthier life. Budget yourself and stick to it.
Amen.
The best part about being out of debt is that when you get a paycheck you have so many options.I will usually take 10% and put into a vacation account. Maybe take 50% and put into an investment. the options are endless. When you are in debt you know that every time you get paid it goes to the credit card company.
The day you make the decision to change can be one of the best days of your life. I know it was for me.
Sometimes “the day” comes when you come across something that tells you things need to change. For me, it happened when I saw how my finances compared to those of other people like me. It happened when I visited this site…ingcompareme.com.
I think that seeing what shape you’re in relative to others like yourself if more powerful a message than just listening the all of those wealthy financial gurus on TV.
Arguing with your spouse is kind of like wasting time. At the end, you realize you could have done something more constructive with your time and energy. Not to mention the time spent making up 🙂
