I think everyone should visit this link (it’s at Blogging Away Fat) and look at the video I posted of a dancer named Bryan Gaynor. It’s not personal finance related in the least bit, but this 20 year old is an inspiration.
For some inspiration that is debt reduction related, here’s a blogger who paid off a $20,000 student loan in 2 years
I hope you enjoy!

Good article. My take away from it is simple. Live WAY BELOW your means and pay off debt. Not to mention you should get a job paying more money each year instead of just getting a raise…

I’m a huge fan of So You Think You Can Dance! And, I had tears in my eyes watching that guy. Definitely an inspiration to everyone!

The story is truly inspiratinal …although at first i thought Mandy (what i think her name is) paid of her debts from money earned through blogging!! Simply put, being free of debt is a relief to anyone !!

I’m glad you enjoyed the links. I’m going to try to highlight more of them as I find them. Sometimes I forget to jot them down so maybe I’ll post them as I find them. That way, we can have a little inspiration during the week as well
