"deprived"...LOL
OnlineHost: JLang08155 has entered the room.
GAClicks: trying freedom!
SDura85319: stopping 401k contributions and company stock purchase is a
consideration
MWDebtFree: Angie - You won't feel deprived when you have money to retire
on!!!
TLN1882007: I've found in the last two weeks that paying cash for bills even
makes you realize just how
MWDebtFree: SDura - YES
TLN1882007: much you are truly spending
MWDebtFree: Exactly.
MWFREEDOM: Well that is one of the best habits you can develop
MWDebtFree: That's how you should do it.
OnlineHost: Lflair has left the room.
JLang08155: Well should I pay off highest or lowest?
AngieHollo: I know...but it was a plastic addiction.....this way it HAS to be
there before I can spend
MWFREEDOM: Everybody clap for GA!!!!!!!
AngieHollo: it
MWFREEDOM: CLAP!
MWDebtFree: {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{APPLAUSE}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}
GAClicks: I agree and I do admit that it does REALLY help curb overspending
GAClicks: when the wallet is empty the register is silent!
MWFREEDOM: GA please explain why you say so
OnlineHost: NHDOOLITTL has entered the room.
AngieHollo: YYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
SDura85319: I guess it is possible to pay the debt but having a jumbo loan
would make things easier
MWFREEDOM: Is shwe alright?
MWDebtFree: Angie - Just be careful with that debit card. It's still plastic
and people still spend up
MWFREEDOM: she/?
MWDebtFree: to 30% more with plastic.
GAClicks: why I say what?
OnlineHost: JRober4591 has entered the room.
OnlineHost: DeniseB650 has left the room.
OnlineHost: NHDOOLITTL has left the room.
MWFREEDOM: re: "help curbs overspending"
MWDebtFree: SDura - It seems like it would, but most people end up having to
reconsolidate after
MWDebtFree: a consolidation loan.
MWDebtFree: Why you ask?
MWDebtFree: Because the lure of cards with no balance is too much for most
people.
MWDebtFree: Then they reload the credit cards, PLUS they have the loan to pay
back.
GAClicks: like I said - when I am out of cash I stop - with the credit cards
I would just spend
GAClicks: and spend
MWDebtFree: Since those loans are tied to their homes, many people lose their
homes.
MWFREEDOM: Does everyone know what they say about "B.C.C."?
OnlineHost: Tradewinns has entered the room.
GAClicks: I still have one credit card but I leave it at home and NEVER use
it
MWFREEDOM: Thanks GA!
SDura85319: A new loan is postponing the payoff but slows down that
compounding interest rate
OnlineHost: JRober4591 has left the room.
JLang08155: MW. I was late online. Is it better to pay off highest or
lowest balance? Why?
MWFREEDOM: LOwest balance
TLN1882007: I re-consolidated 3 times and I'm here again with the same debts.
MWFREEDOM: gets you feeling good about paying off debt/
TLN1882007: We have to fix our BRAINS
MWFREEDOM: TLN-how so?
TLN1882007: How so what Freedom.
MWDebtFree: PLUS you are able to roll the amount you were paying on the
lowest cards up to the other
MWDebtFree: cards.
MWDebtFree: It's a snowball/domino effect.
JLang08155: MW. Thanks.
OnlineHost: Tradewinns has left the room.
MWFREEDOM: WHat suggestions do you have to "fix... brains"?
SDura85319: can a 401k be withdrawn in order to pay down debt
MWFREEDOM: Welcome
MWDebtFree: SDura - Not recommended.
MWFREEDOM: NO!
SDura85319: ok
MWDebtFree: When your money works for you, it's the best employee you'll ever
have.
TLN1882007: It's a long process. I have learned a lot in the past six weeks.
Want me to share some?
MWFREEDOM: That was too easy
MWDebtFree: It doesn't call in sick, it doesn't take long lunches... Just
keeps plugging away.

GAClicks: the only employee who pays you!
MWDebtFree: Exactly.
MWFREEDOM: MW? Did you ever watch the video?
SDura85319: no
MWDebtFree: Stop contributions if you must, but don't pull out what you have
in there already.
TLN1882007: When I have to mail it, fine. I put the cash in the bank and
mail a check. But I leave my
MWDebtFree: I'm FedExing it tomorrow. I'll watch before then love.

GAClicks: pate?
MWFREEDOM: Ya better than the one we go earlier

MWDebtFree: LOL
MWDebtFree: We were lynched.
MWFREEDOM: BIG TIME
Thunder MP: how'd you guess (chili dogs at little league!)
MWDebtFree: Oh Thunder, I know you so well....
TLN1882007: Angie, don't figure a plan for 4 weeks. Spend as usual, and
write EVERYTHING down.

us
SDura85319: Thank you for the information,goodnight
MWFREEDOM: Night
GAClicks: goodnight SD
MWDebtFree: 'Nite SD!
TLN1882007: OK, One thing is that we need to study a commercial. Ask
yourself what is the seller
OnlineHost: TBOST01 has left the room.
DRDimond: keep track of your receipts over a period of time...it will give
you an idea of costs
TLN1882007: trying to accomplish? It's not to "sell" there product. It's to
make us NEED their product
MWFREEDOM: good
TLN1882007: Once we NEED it, we will find a way to get it.
OnlineHost: Daviedame has left the room.
OnlineHost: SDura85319 has left the room.
MWDebtFree: Yeah, who really believes that having a credit card will help you
travel all over the world,
TLN1882007: Another thing is to be smart and think about what you are really
spending on it.
MWDebtFree: meet cool babes and be popular.
TLN1882007: Has anyone ever thought about WHY they don't add sales tax to the
price tag?
Thunder MP: TLN, I've trained my kids SO well...when the commercials come on
they say, "Dad, they're trying
MWFREEDOM: NO please tell us
GAClicks: hey I met plenty of women with my cards - like the bailbondswoman
and the collection agent..
Thunder MP: to sell us something!"
TLN1882007: Another thing is to stop beating yourself up about his. Forgive
yourself.
MWFREEDOM: Oh that is really good!
TLN1882007: They train kids how to dissect frogs in school but NOT how to
balance a checkbook.
JLang08155: TLN. Learned similar things this evening at CCCS seminar.
MWFREEDOM: 90% of us have no formal personal finance education
TLN1882007: Another thing, and my favorite, is to STOP calling it spending!
GAClicks: I learned to balance a checkbook on my nose
MWFREEDOM: WHat do YOU call it?
TLN1882007: Start calling it INVESTING. Is that Taco Bell a good investment?
Or would a home grown
GAClicks: and bark like a seal
DRDimond: what do you want to call it? debting?
TLN1882007: salad a better investment in our future
TLN1882007: Guess i'll stop now
GAClicks: good word TLN
GAClicks: no continue TLN
MWFREEDOM: TLN very good any more?
GAClicks: you have learned more than most of us!
GAClicks: we should all follow your example
TLN1882007: Yes, let me rack my brain. But anyway, this can't be learned or
made a habit overnight
OnlineHost: JLang08155 has left the room.
TLN1882007: It took me 3 weeks to even accept this stuff
Thunder MP: I've learned....TLN is pretty sharp!
MWFREEDOM: WHere did you find this info?
TLN1882007: Now I think I'm really on my way
GAClicks: time well spent TLN
TLN1882007: I found it from a wonderful friend who coached me here on line
for 6 weeks
MWFREEDOM: THe MOney Coach?
TLN1882007: I think he was my personal Angel, though, not to get mushy, but
he's disappeared.
TLN1882007: YES. Where did he go Freedom?
TLN1882007: I've been crying all day
MWFREEDOM: He is around.
TLN1882007: And I'm not kidding. WHERE IS HE
AngieHollo: Do you have suggestions on the best way to handle "commissions"
on taxes?
