I believe small business can go anywhere from 6 months to a 3 years before a profit can reasonably be expected. I believe I read that somewhere.
13 years ago @ Punch Debt In The Face - What was your epihpany? · 1 reply · +1 points
I could also say my epiphany started much earlier as I watched my parents struggle with money. Growing up seeing the frustration (of which i have now), I hoped never to be in a situation where my finances were dominated by bills I couldn't pay.
I'm still financially educating myself. I set my parents up on Quicken to help their finances and learned much myself. I was also blessed because I saw the decision of my parents and learned naturally what's not good to do. Since then I've grown a lot listening Podcasts (NPR Planet Money, NY Times, WSJ, Money Girl) to educate myself. Having recently discovered Ninja, that's helped a lot too, especially sharing it with my girlfriend.

All student loan debt @ 5.25 %
Original balance: 2 accounts at $18,500 in Aug. 2007
Plan to be deft free: April 2014
Sadly, I save away a lot, but start at such a low income, I'm not able to put as much to loans as I'd like.
