Dare to dream
Posted on November 12th, 2007 by Adam Hansen
Imagine this… Living on less than what you make and not having any debt.
I think I have a new goal for myself. If I could do those two things it would allow me to live like no one else. I could save more for retirement. I could afford more things because not only would I save wasted money on interest, I wouldn’t have monthly payments. It seems like a big goal and I realize I don’t have as much debt as some people. But it would enable a level of freedom for myself I have never known. Hmmm… saving up for something before I buy it. That is something I learned growing up but I seem to have forgotten it along the way
I would like to thank Neal Campbell, Cali Lewis and Dave Ramsey for getting me to think a little. 
[…] I did something I haven’t done in a few years… I bought wine. I am, and have been, on a pretty tight budget for a while that has not allowed room for purchasing wine. While I have been a viewer (or maybe that should be lurker) of Wine Library TV ever since the first mention on Diggnation, I have not been in a position to enjoy the juice that GaryVee has been talking about on the show.Once upon a time, I was the wine buyer for the small chain of pharmacies. I used to enjoy buying nearly all the specialty merchandise then; wine, beer, cigars, candles, and anything else that would be fun and move in the stores. Since that time I haven’t been in a position to do much in the way of purchasing these things that I enjoyed so much.On the the purchase… I was at the grocery store and noticed a small case stack of Coppola Classico. They were packaged two bottles for only ten bones. In the past I have bought this for about $9 a bottle so I figured I wasn’t living too large grabbing a couple of bottles for $5 a piece. I haven’t yet popped the cork but plan to do so soon. I remember it as a decent table wine. Hopefully my memory serves me correctly. Funny how something like an extra ten dollars could make such a difference to me.* Can’t wait until I am debt free so I can free up some cash to try some good wines on a regular basis. * Darn you Cali Lewis and Dave Ramsey!!!
