Hi Folks,

I have started a new blog tracking my journey to be debt free. There is not a lot of content right now, but feel free to comment if you have a look.

www.debtfreeby43.com

By posting my goal I am hoping that the public accountability will motivate me.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Thanks,

NoDebtGuy

Debt Free by 43 and "Findependent" by 50? For a second there, I worried your new blog was entitled Adverse to Debt. Because if it was, I would have let you know that the correct title would be Averse to Debt.

One suffers "adverse" conditions like driving in Canadian winters. That's why seniors who are "averse" to bad driving conditions escape to Florida for the winter. No doubt Wikipedia can provide the blow by blow distinction between the two terms but they're commonly confused, like reluctant and reticent.

In any case, good luck with the blog. Eliminating debt is the first step to financial independence, as readers of Findependence Day well know:

Thanks for the feedback, and fixed that nasty word in the blog itself!

I don't care how you spell it (-; I wish you the best of luck with a very worthwhile goal. Debt can be a useful tool when used wisely, such as getting into a house while the kids are young, but is too often a yoke that is hard to get rid of.

Keep your blog up and stay motivated!

Best of Luck. I'm on the "Freedom 85" plan, but hope to pick up some tips here.

According to me you should change your blog template as it looks so common. There are so many free templates available on the web, magzine style template is very good as it looks decent and professional.

After I get some good content I may start changing things up. Thanks for the tip.
