Our motivation is choice. Our biggest debt now is the mortgage, and it eats up half of our income. At the time it was a bad choice,being cheaper than rent then.<a href="http://www.hsbc.co.uk/1/2/personal/savings" rel="nofollow">Savings</a> back then was much easier too. If we didn’t have the mortgage, oh the things we could do! We plan to pay the mortgage off in 20 years vs. 30, and then cut back on our work hours. Great post! Our motivation is choice.

I wouldnt be in the shit I am now, owing more than $1,200,000 to friends, family and banks. I would know all the right steps, I would get motivated and inspired... Now all I have left is a site called www.savemefromshit.com, which is more an example of what to avoid in life, rather than a cry for help... I wish I was reading blogs like this a few years ago.
