In Monday’s post I reviewed Jeff Rose’s book Soldier of Finance, and announced that I would be giving a copy away. I’m very excited, as this is the first give away I’ve done on Enemy Of Debt! Without any further delay, the winner is….
Susan!
I have your email address from your comment entry, and will be contacting you to arrange shipping the book to you. Congratulations!
Yesterday I received my statement for my reduced paycheck for the furlough week. Vonnie and I sat down and did our budget and spending plan for the next two weeks, and I’m very happy to report that with careful planning over the last few weeks that we are ready and will make it through this two week period just fine.
EFF YOU Furlough. Fist pump to us.

Thanks for sharing Cat’s post from this week. As you know, I’m definitely helping my wife Tori get rid of her massive student loan debt! It is going well so far!
You’re welcome, Lance – great to hear you and your wife are working together to kick that student loan to the curb. Thanks for stopping by!
Thanks for mentioning Cat’s post! I really appreciate it (and I’m sure she does too!). Hope you have a great weekend!
I must really like Cat’s writing, as I’ve included TWO of her staff posts from different sites in this roundup – cool! Thanks for your comment!
