It was great I sensed true community between the group members and a desire to know God more. The just finished studying The Treasure Principal. This book will rock your world!
A member of the group asked me to share some tips on finances and I happily accepted the invitation. First I walked them through Dave Ramseys "Baby Steps" I'm a real believer in them. Here are the first three steps:
- $1,000 in an emergency fund
- Pay off debt using the debt snow ball
- Save for retirement.
I also shared how my wife and I allocate our biweekly pay. We tell every dollar where to go before we get our paychecks. We even have a "blow" category. Of course me being a tech junky and an accountant, my allocation plan is in Excel. I'd be happy to share it with you if your interested.
It was great and a privilege to have been part of that small group tonight. I think I'll give my group members a call just to touch base before our next get together.

Todd, I love the fact that you love small groups. I'm so proud to serve with you. Thanks for embracing the idea of community.
What is a blow account? Also, you previously wrote about 'commission' money in your budget, could you expand on those-We're always looking for new ways to budget!
Thanks!
