A Brief Introduction

I consider myself to be a habitual spender and I’m trying to reform myself.

What does this mean? I’m constantly struggling to keep myself from purchase various gadgets and doohickeys that I don’t need. That is what this struggle comes down to; a battle of wants versus needs. So I’m starting a blog.

How does this help? I’m not sure it will. My hope is that by blogging about myself, my spending and my financial goals will keep me honest.

About me? I should point out that my financial goals aren’t solely mine. I’m recently married (last year) and plan to live a long happy life with my wife. At 30 (earlier this year) I’ve still got a lot of time ahead of me. For obvious for personal reasons I plan to be somewhat circumspect about my life, but I do plan to share a lot without going into all details. My wife and I own a house that we bought a little over 3 years and we have 2 dogs that can be somewhat expensive, both because of their destructive tendencies and their mild chronic illnesses.

So this is it, the beginning. We’ll see how this goes.
