I paid off 10K of credit card debt twice, but I need to do it again. I also saved up quite a bit, but I need to do that again too.

How I did it: I started my own sign installation company, because there was a need for reliable installers that could install signs on tall buildings. The truck kept breaking down and the crews sucked, so I sold the truck and started my own sign company. I still sell things evey now and then, but I do not advertise. I am onto working for others as an assistant in a small slow office and marketing person from my home. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I read a lot of books like Automatic Millionaire and Rich Dad Poor Dad. I am going into property investment this month with my mother. My husband supported me for a while and now I am supporting myself, even if something were to happen to him. We also put away into our 6 months living expenses and paid off credit cards and vehicles. This was a savior when he lost his job last year. Read how I did it…
I am already doing this on the small scale, but I don’t want to forget what I was planning on doing when I am rolling in the dough by next month. I want to do the things that only money can do for people, but not by paying off their debts. That is their problem. But maybe taking a friend of mine out of the country. I don’t think he would have ever thought he could visit another country in this lifetime.
I don’t know how, but I don’t need to know how right now. I know it is coming. I know I will retire. I know it will be great, I will not have to worry about money, savings, or financial things. I will have the funds to retire. It will be great to travel around while I am still young and be able to get around and afford to do these things.
