Currently Reading Financial Peace: Revisited By Dave Ramsey, Sharon Ramsey see related

Well, last night we started Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University.  So far, it looks pretty good.  We're going to be meeting once at week the the Methodist Church with some other people who are going through the class.  There are 6 couples.  Curtis and I already know a lot of this stuff, but hopefully getting it pound into us will help us really be serious about getting out of debt and saving money.  I'm starting to already get really serious about it just because with Curtis getting out of the Navy in about a year, we may have a different income, and also there are just a lot of unknowns (like what is he going to do, etc.)  Having no debt and money saved up will help us be ready for whatever happens.  So far we've gotten the debt down to just two things, and we're hoping that with selling his truck, we'll be down to just one (other than the house).   Looks like we're making progress.  I think right now, the main thing holding us back is all the trips to Oklahoma... gas is really expensive!  It's hard to cut back on that though because we love hanging out with our families.  This last trip down there though, we drove 55 mph the whole way and saved about $35 on gas.   We've gotten to where we always drive 55 when the speed limit is 70.  It really helps.
