I’m sure most of you have heard the phrase “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade!” The basis of this quote or phrase is when you are given an opportunity, do something with it. When life gives you a lemon, don’t just say “thanks” and move on. Do something with the lemon, like make lemonade. To tell you the truth, I kind of live by this quote. I know I got my drive from my parents, who work their butts off and do well doing it. They never let their foot off the gas. When life gives them an opportunity, they tend to take it.

Though this quote is inspirational, I don’t feel it tells the entire story. I wanted to expand on it and make it my own, because I can!

My wife and I decided to put new carpet down on our first floor. I talked with quite a few people that have recently had carpet installed in their home. I got all of their reviews and opinions.

It’s Monday and I think I am going to go a little personal today. The purpose of Debt Roundup is to show you that we are all human and we make mistakes. We also have to learn from those mistakes and grow. If we don’t, then we are going to make the same mistakes over and over again. I don’t know about you, but I don’t like to repeat failure. I only like to repeat my successes. On that note, I want to share one of my biggest money mistakes. I would say it is embarrassing, but stuff happens and I just learn how to deal with it.
There are so many words of advice about purchasing a car that I wanted to throw my hat in the ring as well. The reason I want to do this is because I have a little different view point about purchasing a car. I don’t disagree with the other view points as I think they are valid, but I just have a little twist in how I see it. As stated time and time again, finance decisions like this are personal and you have to make the best financial decision based on you.
