The only thing I would vary just a little is to put in an emergency savings account before paying off debt. That way, if the transmission blows, you have money in the bank to fix it, and don't have to go farther into debt to pay it off. But that is just my two cents! :-)Debra Rogershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04892156953648282319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4009917677203976613.post-21968025293293024362008-04-17T17:22:00.000-06:002008-04-17T17:22:00.000-06:00Maxine, thanks!

I know of a few folks who prefer owing at tax time because they do not want the government to have interest free use of their money. That same money could be put in savings and earn interest. I don't know what we're going to do with out stimulus refund. After tithing, it sure would be nice to use some of it for some sort of ministry. I wish I could use some of it to self-publish that book [wink], but I know there are more important needs, such as my husband's eye problems. We'll see how God leads.Maxinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00040368808197747483noreply@blogger.com
