- In 2018, my husband and I had nearly 5 times more credit card debt than the average US household.
- So, in early 2019, we made a resolution to follow one simple rule. We called it Consumption.
- By spring 2019, we'd paid off our smallest revolving balance credit card and were debt-free by 2021.
Every Sunday night I opened my purse and piled up the weekend's bounty of receipts.
