This my first time on visiting this web-site; I was only searching things were coming to my mind. I am the grandparent of a 3 month old baby girl, and her brother is 2 1/2 months old. This information is very helpful for me. I only heard a few words on tv about a 529 plan, now I am more knowledgeable.
Thank you so much for the knowledge and wisdom God has blessed you to share with others.

Great article and great blog overall! It’s inspiring to see someone with the financial discipline to be plan for necessities and emergencies. Hopefully many people will find the specific information about interest rates and savings vehicles to be especially helpful since, too often, these things are spoken about in a vague sense that isn’t applicable to many individuals.

One comment on the student loans. DO go ahead & apply. When I started college my mom was still a SAHM (for my younger brother) so we were living on one (comparatively small) income. I qualified for a loan that was interest free for the entire time I was in college. We happily took the loan & earned interest on that money for the 4 years I was in college. The plan was to pay it off when I graduated (w/ that money that had been earning interest) but since dh & I were buying a house we opted to keep the school loan (at a very low interest rate) and put that money toward our house down payment.

Hi!
This was a great post…thanks for sharing! I am just now hearing of Dave Ramsey and have had his book, Total Money Makeover, out from the library…I need to get it out again! It’s so encouraging to know that we are not oddballs and others believe in being debt free! Yay! Have a great one!
