Goals? What Goals?

Honestly I do not think like my husband. Sure I would love to have tons of money in savings, but in my mind saving that much money seems impossible. How are we to live the life if the bulk of our money is being put away every month? I do want to save money, I just want to live life too. I guess maybe I would just rather use my money to live now rather than later. As I sit here and write this though, that kinda sounds ridiculous! If we just spent our money now and didnt save enough I would probably end up living very megerly later in life when I should be enjoying retirement! This blog really helps me think about things. I even skipped going to get my nails done with a friend today so that I didnt use a credit card and add $25 to our $45,000 in credit card debt. Yeah me! I do however need to buy some more work clothes... this is something that will probably go on a credit card. And this is what my husband means by not planning for things and having the money to buy things we need with cash instead of credit. Ok...so after writing this my goal is to be debt free in the next 5 years!! I want my dream house.... NOW!!
