Longing for a Money Group
As I’m trying to get our finances back on track, I feel myself really longing for a money group or some sort of personal support in this venture. I think it would really help me stay on task and dedicated to have someone to be honest to and to get feedback from. Honestly, I used to feel this blog sort of fit that need, but being inactive for a couple years, I’m thinking I’ll just be talking to dead space now.
We’re looking into the Dave Ramsey system and I know their courses do provide this sort of mentorship – but I’m not spending money to save money at this point. I think the partner and I can get on board and make positive changes without outlaying cash for courses. The small online group I was hoping to work with doesn’t look like it’s going to pan out – they’re probably just going with a format that I won’t be able to follow along with due to a lack of structure and easily accessible support. I do have my hopes that they’ll move to a slightly different format so we can make it work, but since I’m not in charge, I can’t force that change.
I just have some questions and issues I’d really love some supportive feedback on, especially the ones that seem pretty obvious what the answer should be but is hard to accept or follow through with. I’ll probably just end up posting them here eventually, but feel like the possible comments I’ll get in return won’t offer the supportive feedback that will make it easier to make necessary decisions. I’m not looking for someone to tell me “yes, make that stupid decision” but I do want something more than “well duh, it’s obvious that you shouldn’t do that” as well.
Perhaps for now, it’ll just have to be the partner and I supporting each other.
