I am also debt free with the exception of a couple years left on my mortgage. I was paying down my mortgage but with rates so low I tried to find a low risk alternative. I talk about it on my blog http://www.theoptiontradingstrategies.com. It’s very similar advice to yours about earning more than you spend, budgeting etc. Great blog post, do you mind if I link to you?

It is a great help review for our fellow people. I agree with your statement, we need to pay our debts little by little if we are already in a massive rate. But of course we should stop spending too much and stop using credit cards if possible.

Thanks. Keep up the good work

These are good advises. A great article. I am also writing articles about financial freedom. If you may allow, I am posting a link (you can remove it if it is not ok with you):

This article is all about our “Allies to Financial Freedom”. These allies are: time, compound interest, and leverage.

I hope you will allow my post. More power to your site!

How To Do It Wrong
Male: Do bad in school. Leave early. Get crap job. Blow all t/h pay on booze, pokies, clothes and *****. Live in crap flat. Do this until 30 and starting to look old. Look around for smart rich girl. Hitch up with dumb poor girl. Live in crap flat. Get her pregnant. Bust up. She gets the lot. Repeat. Wake up one morning at 55 with no money, no home and kids who don’t know you. Blame it on the immigrants.
Female – Do bad in school. Leave early. Get crap job. Blow all t/h pay on booze, parties, clothes and *****. Live in crap flat. Do this until 30 when losing looks. Look around for smart rich nice guy. Hitch up with dumb poor ‘cute’ guy. Work like dog while he cheats on you. Take kids and live on welfare. Blame it on the immigrants.
Female: (Option) Get pregnant at 17 and go on welfare. Hope for sugar daddy to rescue you. Don’t find one. Blame it all on men.

PS: Don’t buy a house more than 10X your after-tax pay. Oh… missed some words.
When making kids, lower income partner goes f/t at home, higher income partner f/t at work. When youngest starts school both work FULL-TIME, meant to say.

How 2 do it. From 20 to 30 stay single. Live frugal. Direct 15% of your take-home pay to a savings/investment. Eg: You earn $50G a year – lose around $13/15G in tax, giving min $35G pa to play with. Save/Invest $5250 pa. In 10 yrs; $55G+. Marry someone who’s done the same. That’s $110G for dep on mortgage. Get 1st homebuyers grant. Get small house, good area. Live off one wage, service mortgage with higher earner’s wage. Lower earner is home-maker. Make 3 kids -fast! Claim all subsidies & all you can on tax. Live within means. When youngest starts school, both work. Share housework. Live off one wage, other to kill mortgage. Mortage gone in 15 yrs. Kids’ summer job save for uni. Kids gone in 20 yrs. You are both mid 50s. Both debt free. Both go part time. Pad out super. By 55… enjoy!
