I’m not a financial guru, advisor, expert or genius. I’m just a woman who is in charge of the personal finances of our household. I’m a person who hasn’t really ever been comfortable with debt (you could say I’m a ‘saver’ or ‘hoarder’ personality), but I seem to have a lot of it. I’m a person who will get out of said debt and generate wealth. I’m a person who will try to remember that I am not my money; that I control my money; that I can make my money work for me.
