Default Re: Need advice on personal finance

Well this may seem weird but how old are the kids?? And are they boys or girls or both I ask because you could possibly save on clothes by handing them down!!!

Then if you can I would get a pt job around my dh I did this & got into demos made ok money doing that & got alot of free food so helped a ton on our food bill!!!

Then I would get rid of at least the leased car & buy a cheap gas saving car I also did that I bought a taurus it was great on gas!!!

Then I would try to buy the house from his parents & not rent it!!! And only do free things with the kids I have done this for 2 years & havent ran out of free stuff yet to do!!! Also have a huge sale when you move & put all money made towards debts then start doing rebates coupons & ebay!!! And go to garage sales this has saved me a ton I started this year doing it & am so sad I didnt do this years ago if you are the first one thier you can usually find GREAT DEALS!!!

Oh ya & check into term life ins instead of whole that whole is a big HOLE!!

Its seriously usually a huge rip off!!!
