pay off my best buy/credit card debt.
Diminished my debt. 2 months ago

Ok I have to pay off my Best Buy and Capital one credit card. So I have this plan. It’s not a really big debt, but my plan is to pay off my Best Buy card first and then the Capital one. My monthly bill for both cards is $10 a month and I owe $2xx.xx on my Best buy card & $4xx.xx on the Capital one. I plan to pay at least $50 out of my checks starting this payday to pay off the best buy card and pay the minimum payment for the capital one for now. I figured after 4-5 paydays my best buy card will be paid off and then I can cancel it and then I can start paying $50 a month to my Capital one card & pay it off. Also if I have extra money I’ll put in a little more so I can finish paying all this off for good.

A little self-control here please! 1 year ago

Ok so I got this quicken software working a couple weeks ago and found out for the last 4 years where my money was mostly going; I was afraid to look at it. I’m guilty for shopping a lot! YUP cloths. I’ve stop wasting money like I use to, I’m starting to be more money savvy about this whole spending thing.

My main focus right now is to:

1.Control my spending!
2.Financial educate myself more.
3.Raise my income and degrade the outcome.
4.Figure out my income and what goes out monthly.
5.Set a budget.
6.Figure out alternative ways to spend more wisely.
7.Don’t spend more than I make!

Right now I saved money by quitting smoking a long time ago, it was a big burden on the income. Plus I’m healthier.

I cancelled my gym pass and started working out at home.

I actually stop eating out a lot. I started cooking.

I don’t buy cds or dvds anymore. I actually burn my cds and borrow dvds from people now.

Also, I drive a big truck and it eats up to much gas, so I don’t drive as much no more. Only when I need too.
