Last night, Joe and I discovered something new about each other.
I’m the “Free Spirit.” He’s the “Nerd.”
I’m the “Spender.” He’s the “Saver.”
And it was time to learn some Financial Peace about it all. Six years ago, we had no debt other than our mortgage and a car payment. Then we moved two blocks down into a bigger house. Then we lost our entire investment in a flower shop. The property taxes nearly doubled and our savings account dwindled.Then one kid left home for college.
Sounds like a bad country song, doesn’t it?
Then… instead of taking up knitting or some sensible leisure activity, I rediscovered my passion for a very expensive sport and started flinging twenty-dollar bills at every driver who would pull me barefooting.
Uh oh.
We signed up for Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University at our church along with several other deaf and hard of hearing folks. Meghan Vozzolo generously provided the interpreting:

It’s time to live like no one else, so you can live like no one else.
