Looking to Discuss Personal Finance?

by

If you are looking to discuss personal finance with some of the best finance bloggers out there (the Money Blog Network and beyond), stop by the MBN Forums. Recently, someone asked about getting lower rates on car insurance and received some great replies.

Feel free to browse what’s already been posted, post your own topic or reply to somone else’s question 🙂

Credit Card Debt Update = $26,996

by

I spent some time this morning catching up my Quicken file. It’s not quite there yet, but at least my check register is updated and I have a better idea of how much money I could put to debt this month.

Credit Card Debt Update = $26,996
Total Paid Since Starting this Blog in February = $10,618

I am heavily forecasting our expenses for the month of October. I still have to find someone to do our home repair (I’ve left messages but haven’t heard back from anyone yet) and I am putting a guess of $700 for the repair. With the overtime I’ve worked the past few weeks, the extra work I plan on doing this week, and the eBay selling I’m hoping to accomplish – I sent an extra $400 to one of our credit cards.

I hope I forecasted well enough to make sure we do not have to pull out the credit cards due to lack of cash. I vividly remember how that made me feel when I had to do it before.
