What was the defining moment in your life when you decided to start taking control of your finances?
Maybe you’re seeking the knowledge and desire to start taking over your finances, so you might not be able to answer this question yet. But for those of you that enjoy reading this blog and other personal finance blogs, I suspect that you have had a defining moment in your life when you said, “this is it, I’m tired of living like this”, and you changed the way that you started spending, saving, and managing your finances. I’d love to hear your story. Who or what inspired you to start changing the way your handle your finances?
My answer to this question can be found in my About Me page. I did a lot of damage to my finances in a little bit of time, but I am very grateful to have changed my ways at such an early age and before I got married. Who knows how much debt I would have right now if I had never had that moment in the car one night where I got so angry with debt, that I vowed never to use credit cards and student loans the way that I had in the past.
So, what’s your story?
