I read your post for a guide on how to get started on the envelope system and it's really motivating me to get back on track. I started today using envelopes (payday) and am hoping this will set me straight again. Thanks!

Controlling what I am doing, or even fully grasping what I am doing, seems impossible. One of my goals is to simply do my banking accurately and pay my bills on time in order to avoid extra charges. One would think this would be a given, but I am literally so pressured that it is difficult to be accurate. I am going to have to get yet another job in order to pay down my debt. Sleep deprivation will become my friend, but in the end, it will be worth it. It's not like I drive a fancy car, live in an expensive house, go on cruises or own diamonds on rubies. My debt has accumulated largely because it costs too much to live in the country right now. I am casting a wayward eye toward living in Puerto Rico or Costa Rica, and riding a donkey into town as a lifestyle alternative. I am very grateful that this website exists. It will make possible what I have tried to do for years, but only lacked a rudder.
