Our family has struggled for 20 years to make ends meet and never have saved up any money. We have lots of kids, so we always thought it was due to that. What we learned - by taking the Financial Peace class at Lake Cities United Methodist Church is that our DEBT is what was strangling us!
Taking this class did a number of things for our family. We are more financially free than ever. We were able to make some changes in our business that reduced stress in our lives big time. We have been able to pay off all credit card and other small debts as well as owning 2 debt free vehicles. We still have some debt that we are paying, but within the next year, we will have all debt besides our home paid off.
What this means is that my wife and I are on the same page about finances. We are now both "struggling together" to improve our finances which as helped improve our marriage! (One of the many ways God and this Church has helped us improve our marriage over the years).
Anyway, all we know is that by following what God and Dave Ramsey have come up with in the Financial Peace University class, we are more well off and have more peace than ever before.
