2 Week Take Control of Your Finances Bootcamp
I came out of college with a huge student loan debt and it took me over 9 months to find employment. During this time it was just my husband working, so our budget was extremely tight. I used coupons a lot which was part of the reason I started this blog. Through blogging I wanted to help my local friends and family save money but I also needed to have an outlet for my boredom. While learning to budget I came across this site and signed up. It was a free 2 week course that took stock of my current debt and offered advice and encouragement to get out of it as quickly and painlessly as possible.
I can’t say that I am completely out of debt, as I said, I owe a lot to the government for my student loans but it has helped me set priorities and know what to pay first. Plus it is a free course and when you are in debt the last thing you want to do is pay for a course to get out of debt.
