Tonight we met with our old Dave Ramsey Financial Peace group to celebrate Richey's family being debt-free except the house.  Thank you Lord for enabling them to do this.  They have an incredible story about this - and will share on the Dave Ramsey show soon.  Richey's job of 18 years is getting phased out, and he has been going to school and working as a nursing intern for the past year...and his wife has picked up extra dental jobs.  They have been gazzelle intense in paying off their debt so they can make this career transition. 

Anyhow all 3 couples made a pact during our first FPU class that once our equity lines were paid off - we would celebrate with dinner.  An extra bonus was that our dear friends the Gwyn's are expecting a child next month (yet another incredible answered prayer).  So we enjoyed a great time of fellowship and praising God....even though Richey got called out at the last minute and could not celebrate with us! :-)

Well the Cadillac car sale knocked off another 7 chains - so we are now left with 4 chains!!!   We hope to transition from a slavery to debt poster to a nest egg poster (fully funded emergency fund) come November.
