On Fruclassity today, we’re sharing the story of one family’s journey to mortgage free.
Our guest today is Will, a colleague at the high school where I work. As a teacher, I find it interesting to see different people earning similar incomes navigating their finances in such radically different ways from one another. Will stepped up the ladder to become a department head a few years ago. He is 40 years old, and he and his wife Rachael, who have lived on a single income since their first child was born eight years ago, have been mortgage free for four years.
1. Was there a point at which you decided you wanted to manage your money really wisely? What would you say were the influences that made you become effective with your finances?
Will and Rachel are really good at managing money. I can’t believe that they maintained to be debt free for that long 8 years, considering they have 1 income to depend on. Very impressive!
I think so too, Jayson. Glad you enjoyed the story. 🙂
Role models. Plain and simple! 🙂
Amen! 🙂
