5 Tips for getting out of debt

1. I use cash for almost everything I can. I have been doing this for at least 9 months now and have paid off thousands in debt. Yes I make mistakes, actually I made one last month with thinking I can handle the debit card. Boy was I wrong... Its okay to make mistakes just start again. Keep trying!
2. If you do not have the cash for it do not buy it! This is hard, especially for me... I want stuff now, but we all can wait!
3. Find friends who are doing the same thing, do not try to hang out with people who try very hard to blow their paycheck before they get it! It will be very hard to stay on budget around them.
4. Find older people who spend their money wisely, I do not mean grandpa who still has car loans either. I mean grandma who stores money in her sugar container for a rainy day.
5. Google ways to save money... There are tons of ways to save money that you have not even thought of yet.

I know this is hard, but you can do it! Do it for your family! You could change your whole family tree!
