Raun, that fun when you start out you thinking it is going to take FOREVER and then the time comes and you are DONE faster than you think. I agree, on the constant nagging feeling – it really is amazing however when we put intentional action and faith towards our goals. I can’t believe some of the “disasters” that came our way through this journey, however, it is even more shocking the blessings that followed right along with them.
Raun, THANK YOU for your words of encouragement. We are SO CLOSE to being there – even though WE KNOW the time is going to go fast and we have already done so much, it still FEELS so far away. ha ha. Can’t wait to visit Dave Ramsey and his staff next year for our debt free scream. Our family is REALLY, REALLY excited!!
MANY thanks Raun!

Thank you, Jen, for being so willing to share your story. We didn’t have nearly the scale of debt to work through. From the time we really started until we paid off the last debt was only about 9 months. We had projected that it would take about 12, so we were happy about our pace. The strange thing is the constant nagging feeling that the whole thing is just going to blow up. When are we going to have that catastrophic failure that ruins everything. I can’t tell if that’s rational or not!

Keep moving forward, Jen. You’re almost there!

Raun,

YOU inspire me! So proud of you being on the other side of where most people are today, especially as you expand your family tree (LOVED the recent baby announcement pictures on FB).

Yes, the hard work definitely is worth it as you mention. It makes me incredibly sad to think of others going through the pain, embarrassment and fear that our family once went through, however, I have so much HOPE that they can take charge of the future with intentional action.
Raun, thank you for your encouragement and support. My family and I are incredibly humbled and honored!
MANY THANKS my friend!
Live Beyond Awesome.
