it's been a while... but we're back!

July 2nd, 2011 at 12:09 am

It's amazing that after a year and a half of not posting, and 6 months of not even updating our savings/debt totals, I still come back to this thing when I feel like we're "out of control" on financial stuff.

Things have been steady for us, but we've both been so busy with work that we haven't really focused on anything else for about a year.

That being said, we have managed to pay off DH's car, and continue contributing to our 401k's.

The other debts have decreased some, but not enough for what we have paid out! Dang the interest.

In total, since my last update in November, our debt has decreased by $1,941 while our total investments have increased by $2,596. That's a net improvement in our financials of $4,537... which is that much better than we were in November!

Currently, we are facing some financial decisions that are making us want to pull our hair out. There is definitely no clear answer, and as soon as one person gives us advice one way, somebody else contradicts it on the other end. UGH!

But, we will figure it out eventually. I'm about to hop over onto the forums and ask for some advice there I think. Smile
