Wow, been a while.
My last post was around Thanksgiving of 2017. We had become - and continue to be - debt free since April of that year. We had just been interviewed by NPR the previous June and had no idea what was going to happen with that. (If you read my account of the interview, remember I was recording for posterity so it might read like a memoir. Good for naps, if you know what I mean.)
Anywho, we didn't receive any news from NPR until yesterday. Looks like they will have a Life Kit segment come out in a couple of weeks that will involve our interview. Figured I'd shoot out an update on us and our journey in case new folks come by.
First, my first post ever was back in September of 2014. Reading that first entry is a blast from the past. It's hard to believe that was 4 1/2 years ago. I delivered pizzas for two years (plus a few months) to get out of debt. We've been debt free for two years come April. How bananas is that!
I started this blog as a record to myself and to posterity of the journey we took to finally kick debt. It morphed into some fun storytelling. It includes pep talks for others that are trying to become debt free.
My story is not unique. Delivering pizzas to pay debts is not unique. But my experiences in that journey are, and I am grateful to share them.
I appreciate all the response this has garnered over the years. Dave Ramsey's Baby Steps hold great truths. Financial life still comes with its shares of challenges beyond step 2. I look forward to revisiting these stories with you.
As always,
