Not sure how to start.

So my wife and I decided that we wanted to start a blog.  This would be our first and just want to see how this goes.

I plan to blog about money and life, while she plans to blog about life as a military spouse. 

My name is Dan, I am an active duty service member and have been for a minute or two.  We are currently stationed in Wiesbaden, Germany. It is beautifully distracting here.

Why did I want to start a blog?  I believe in sharing information and that knowledge is power. If even one person can learn something from me then I guess I will be glad I have shared it.

What information can I share?  Well, I can share a lot of things, but my focus is on military life but mostly on money matters from my perspective.  I have run the gambit on finances and have spent a few years researching on my own (I like to self educate) how to deal with debt.  I know as well as many, there are a ton of people talking about how to repair your credit, how to get rich, how to get out of debt and a ton of others.  What many people don't do is talk real about how to repair your financial life and change your future and your legacy.  That is why I am here.

How do I know about these things?  Well, I will say first it is not by profession so you can stop reading here if you are looking for professional advice for free.  I am a professional person however, and I am a graduate of Dave Ramsey's Financial Coaching course. I have also spent several years researching ways to end my drama with personal debt and sought better ways to manage our families finances.

So, next post will be about where I come from financially and where we are headed to share some of my own personal experience.  Please feel free to leave me any comments, questions etc on and financial or military topics you would like to hear/talk about.

Thanks and look forward to sharing with you.
