My Debt Roundup - April 2010

This month my debt moved to the teens for the first time, and stands at $19, 232. Compared to last month when I reduced my debt by $2, 456, this month my debt reduction is considerably lower at $ 1, 618. I spent considerably more money on groceries and eating/drinking out this month. Looking at my Mint.com account, which tracks my credit and debit cards spending, I spent about $250 more on eating/drinking out and $100 more on groceries than what I did last few months. I must have spent a few more dollars of cash here and there as well which have not been accounted. This shows how easy it is for me to go over budget and spend more than what I planned. It just takes a few dollars at a time.

  1. Hi, (Also, interested for article exchange)

    This is Carol, a webmaster of some quality financial websites having good internet presence and traffic. As I found your website is relevant to my one, I'd like to have you as my link partner. I am ready to give you some healthy links (both text and banner) from content pages (pr1/2/3) of my websites.

    I have few brand new debt, mortgage, insurance, credit related articles, which I wish to post in your site.

    If you are not the concerned person, then kindly forward this mail to the webmaster concerned.
    Waiting for your reply.
    Regards,
    Carol

  3. @William, Mint is indeed a good tool. See my a review of Mint.com at http://www.mewithoutdebt.com/2009/09/quicken-and-mint.html (I did a while ago)
