I absolutely love reading “Millionaire in the Making” on CNN Money. I find it very motivating to read how others are doing. The latest article highlights Christopher Ortega and Alicia McDonald. They are a couple that have known each other since high school and they both appear to have similiar money motivations. Here are some highlights:
-Lots of home equity
-Saving lots each month
-Plan to save even more each month
-Pay cash for things
-Pay down college debt. Looks like they wrapped it up in deductible interest debt and are soon to pay it off.

Another article I enjoyed reading was the latest “Ask the Expert”. It’s a 25 year old from my neck of the woods who asks, “How do I retire at 50?”

I really need to subscribe to this magazine, but I just hate dealing with magazine companies.
