January 31, 2011 at 1:08 pmGood info and great show Steve – I love the ‘envelope’ method; whether you do it literally or virtually, it’s a great process to shoot for! I’ve never been able to make it work in real life though …. something always seems to come up 🙂

February 21, 2011 at 8:45 pmThanks for inviting me on, Steve. Great show and always a joy to talk with you.
Thanks for the comments as well, Scott and Michael. Definitely an income issue here but there are some basic steps to getting the money habits in order as that income starts to come up as well.
Michael – a note on the virtual envelopes. I use a service called Mvelopes. Absolutely love it.
