Intro

Hi everyone,

I love this board! I am really interested in learning how to budget better - I am in law school full time, working part time, and also planning a wedding. My fiancé and I are doing ok financially, but I love learning new ways to be creative financially. We really want to keep saving so that we can buy a house and start having children in about 5 years (and pay off my loans asap!!) We are on the same page about saving/spending.

Just wanted to say hi!

  • Welcome! I planned our wedding while in school, too. It was tough but a fun break from school and work stress. Good luck!

    Welcome!

    I planned our wedding during my first year of practice... and then I scheduled it 2 weeks before H's spring law exams because of scheduling conflicts with our church.  He wasn't too happy about that, but he got over it and ultimately did fine that semester :)

    EDIT: Forgot to mention... we also closed on our house 5 days after H took the bar exam.  Poor H... he can't seem to catch a break!
