Part 6/8:
Three and a half years ago, facing the overwhelming weight of debt, the author resolved to make a drastic change. She recognized that simply having monthly payments was not normal, and she called for a family-wide transformation. This journey didn't involve dipping toes in the water; it required complete immersion into a new lifestyle.
With hard work and a decisive cut in spending, the family began to see results. They sold large ticket items, faced financial realities, and committed to a stringent budget. Over two years, they found success through disciplined saving methods, a determined commitment to “work for yourself,” and strategic choices to lower ongoing expenses while raising income.
