From I've Paid For This Twice Already - view blog entries - visit this blog
January 1, 2021 at 5:15 am ET As I said in my earlier posts referencing our holiday trip, the whole experience was a complete budgeting failure. I did one of the cardinal sins of budgeting - I basically just decided on a random number because it sounded good without really digging into what the trip has cost in the past, and [...] ...

December 31, 2020 at 3:06 pm ET Last month, I got a notice that our mortgage payment was going up because our property taxes last year were higher than expected. Well, when we got home from our vacation, sitting in our mailbox was a check from the county auditor for several hundred dollars in property tax refunds. Apparently our state [...] ...

December 31, 2020 at 5:38 am ET When we left for our trip to visit relatives the Friday morning before last, I pulled into the local ATM and withdrew some cash to buy food and pay tolls on both the trip out and the trip back, and then we went over to the local gas station to top off my tank (it [...] ...

December 30, 2020 at 4:42 pm ET Well, we are back! We got back late last night, and it will take me a few days to get back into the swing of things, but the blog will go on. I have lots to share financially from our trip (two words: budget failure) and also just a lot [...] ... (more) Saturday, December 29, 2020 The Snowflake Revolution (12 clicks)

December 29, 2020 at 9:02 am ET When I started this blog, I didn’t know much about the personal finance information that was out there. Because I didn’t know much, I mistakenly assumed the little I did know must be common knowledge, and acted as such. But after several questions about “snowflaking” from visitors, readers, and commenters, I realized that [...] ...

December 25, 2020 at 6:28 am ET I haven’t used credit to pay for Christmas in a long long time. In fact, I’ve kind of blocked out what exactly I used my credit card for back when I was using it, so I am not sure that any Christmas presents ever got charged (although I am guessing some did). But [...] ... (more) Monday, December 24, 2020 Choice #3: Contributing to College Accounts (8 clicks)
From I've Paid For This Twice Already - view blog entries - visit this blog
December 24, 2020 at 5:59 am ET Yes, we’re in debt. We’re getting out of debt, but we’re nowhere near there yet. With one exception (our car loan), all of our debts have much higher interest than our savings accounts earn. And yet, I am still saving a modest amount of money each month in two special accounts.

December 23, 2020 at 9:07 am ET We are off on vacation, so I haven’t had a chance to read many posts on other blogs this past week. But I wanted to take this time to point out two really cool things going on:

December 22, 2020 at 9:36 am ET With being sick, a sick husband, and two sick kids this week, I didn’t get a chance to review the carnivals like I normally do and pick out posts that I especially related to. But I wanted to thank all of the carnival hosts for their hard work and dedication in putting them together [...] ... (more) Friday, December 21, 2020 Why Credit Cards Are Not My Friends (6 clicks)

December 20, 2020 at 7:28 pm ET Things have gotten a little out of order in my Personal Choices series, but that’s okay - the order I assigned them originally was random anyway. Today at the No Credit Needed Network site, my personal choice #4, Interest Order vs Balance Order and the Root of Motivation, is a guest post! [...] ...

We should have the credit card debt under $1000 if our trip spending goes as planned and the pending [...] ... (more) We’re Going on a Trip… (3 clicks)

December 20, 2020 at 5:56 am ET My spouse and I live a significant distance away from our respective families. Luckily for us however, our families both live rather close to each other (about 30 minutes apart) so over the Christmas holiday every year we take an extended vacation and visit both his parents and my parents. Tomorrow morning [...] ... (more) Wednesday, December 19, 2020 From I've Paid For This Twice Already - view blog entries - visit this blog
December 19, 2020 at 6:01 am ET Last week I talked about how we came to the decision to have a $1000 emergency fund while concentrating on debt reduction. Another choice we’ve made that has caused some alternative opinions is the use of our 0% credit card offer and how we are paying it off.
We practice what might be termed the [...] ... (more) Tuesday, December 18, 2020 From I've Paid For This Twice Already - view blog entries - visit this blog
December 18, 2020 at 5:30 am ET When I was a teenager and a young adult, I set my financial goal pretty low, or so I thought. My goal as an adult was to have enough money so that I could do small things each month without worrying about running out of money. Not extravagant things - I honestly have [...] ...

December 17, 2020 at 5:51 am ET Now that 2007 is almost complete, it is time to look ahead to 2008. Last week I looked at our original 2007 and 2008 midterm debt reduction goals and found that we’ve met our 2007 goals and the original 2008 goals are more than feasible, so it is time to reevaluate our [...] ...

December 15, 2020 at 7:03 pm ET There are dancing queens and then there are shopping queens. Today, I am a shopping queen. All told, I spent $223.73 today.
