[...] I love it when I read something and things (as I like to call it) hit me like a brick. While surfing my blogroll, I came across a comment left over at Dual Income No Kids. [...]

Kim – you don’t happen to have a blog, do you? Cause I’d love to read it if you do! You always have some great things to say. Best of luck to you on your road to becoming debt-free

mapgirl – hehe, yes it is the time for blog redesigns – yours looks very nice as well

Jim – I truly believe that once I am out of debt, I will be able to stay out. A personal goal of mine is to one day be able to pay for a car without a loan and to even purchase a house without a mortgage. I know it can be done. It’s great to hear a success story like yours – you keep up the great work as well!

You are already thinking like a millionaire by realizing you need to keep your money rather than spend it. Kudos to you for what you are doing. When you get that debt paid off, you can start putting that monthly nut to investing in retirement. I’ve been where you are, and it is possible to get out of debt. Better yet, once you’re out, it is easy to stay out if you plan properly. I got into debt when I lost my business, I tell my story on my blog at http://debtandcredit2.blogspot.com and have been blogging about potential solutions, along with some ranting and raving about the traps set by banks and credit card companies. We’re in this together. Keep up the good work!

Nice post. It’s true. Once you understand how millionaires think and make choices to spend their money or not, you’ll start taking the steps towards enriching your net worth.

Nice purple BTW, the color of renewal. It seems like May is the season for blog redesigns.

That certainly gets at the difference between the connation of millionaire, and the denotation. What you want is to have a $1 million dollars to your name. You don’t want to be a “millionaire”. It’s choosing to save versus spend. I think it’s great that the book has helped you look at that. Keep up the good work! I am also working on getting out of debt and, although it is a long and hard road, when you start seeing some progress it feels great!
