As the old saying proverbs go, 'He who fails to plan, plans to fail.'
You'll need to aim at your target, otherwise - you'd be wasting your rounds on thin air. Finance wise - without a goal, you'll never reach financial peace. It doesn't need to be REALLY detailed - however, the more precise your planning is - the more likely you'd be able to follow the plan. Everyone strives to have financial peace - but how do you get to Point A to point B? PLAN.
I've mentioned where I want to be, where I would like to be. However - I'd like to go into more detail.
The Ultimate Goal : DEBT FREE.
Of course I have other goals (saving for retirement and our children's college) but DEBT Free is priority numero uno. I'm sick of giving people all my hard earned money when it can be MINE.MINE.MINE. I/We dug ourselves into this mess, so we just gotta pay (literally)
The Steps : These steps are derived from Dave Ramsey's Plan & Part of the YNAB (You Need a Budget) system. A Hybrid Plan per se.

Hi There.
Thanks for visiting!
I chose to start a website of my own after reading a lot of personal blogs about finances. I've learned so much and would like to do the same someday.
Our current situation : Living paycheck to paycheck. No savings. TONS of debt. Bills GALORE. No budget. No Plan. I'm starting new.
Sure, I've tried things here and there, but nothing ever adhered - but that's probably because I never put the effort on handling finances. It wasn't fun.. but I want it to be. That's why I'm here.
Where I would like to be : On the Dave Ramsey show screaming I'M DEBT FREE!!!! YEAH! I'd like to be a Proud Dave Ramsey Follower and be able to show it all. I want to be in the "... so you can live like noone else" coz, shoot. I do wanna live like noone else. I don't want to worry about dumb bills, stupid debt, leeching interest rates and all the other unmentionables. I want to be WEALTHY. I want to die and leave my children a dynasty - not like the debtpool my mother plans on leaving me.
