This blog is officially 1 year old! Just a baby compared to most blogs.
I began 1MansMoney 12 months ago with a post about our negative net worth. Since then, we have turned things around and now have a positive net worth. We also have one year under our belt towards achieving our goal of financial independence and retiring early.
I give credit for our financial success to God because this is all His anyways, to my wife because she’s my inspiration, and to our families for their guidance. I also have to give credit to this blog for helping us keep better track of where we were at and where we are going.
For those of you that want to get out of debt and plan for retirement, I encourage you to consider starting a blog. Any goal worth achieving requires a plan and follow thru. I find that this blog is a terrific tool. I liken it to a financial diary that, since others read it, helps provide accountability and feedback.
I can’t wait until a year from now when 1MansMoney is in its terrible 2’s.

Congrats! I totally understand what you are talking about writing blog and motivation..Since I started my blog, I’ve paid off $2,000 CC in 48 days..amazing motivation..
That’s a lot of credit card debit to pay down in 1-1/2 months. Great job Chicky. I used to love watching my credit card balances plummet when paying them down.
