Hey Joseph, nice article… it is important to understand your target and to have a plan to help direct your steps. This is an important lesson for many endeavors and especially for personal finance.

I’ll be around in some form or another. I’ve just had a lot going on this year, but things are definitely starting to get back to normal. Thanks for the kind words! .-= Joseph´s last blog ..Starting on the Road to Wealth =-.

Hey Joe,

Really glad that we haven’t seen the last of DvC! I was worried for some time that we had.

I really enjoyed reading this post. Sometimes the fundamentals aren't so obvious to people and that's why they struggle with their finances. Others know these concepts well, but don't have the discipline to follow them. Knowledge is power when you have the courage to use it. Bret Frohlichs last blog post..Taxation Without Representation

I’ve recently been focusing a lot on my credit health. I just got my first card last week and I’ve begun using it to pay for gas and necessities. I’m going to pay it off every month and hopefully it will help me build a solid credit score (the cash-back rewards are a nice little bonus as well )

Have you considered LifeLock? I’m probably going to sign up within the next week or so. I figure for $100 or so a year, protecting my identity and my credit makes it well worth it.

Definitely wish I would have started contributing to my 401(k) in my early 20s as opposed to my late 20s. It will make a difference. But, since we're on the topic of 401(k)s, do your best to meet the employer match or you're just leaving free money on the table. My employer currently matches 100% up to 3% - down from the original 6% due to the economy. But, they match 50% from 3-6%, so I kept my contributions at 6% so I wouldn't miss out on any of the free money. I think living frugally is one of the best tools in the personal finance arsenal to building wealth. It's about making financially sound choices, not being cheap - which is the rap that being frugal usually gets. When we make choices appropriate to our long term goals as opposed to our immediate wants, the road to wealth doesn't seem so very long.
