Okay, stay with me on this one...it will be a hard one to follow but I think in the end we will all learn something. This weekend has been filled with reruns of Sports Night, a great sports show from the 90's, and you may wonder what does this have to do with money. Well, Season 1, Episode 9 deals with one. A character in the show has extra cash flow and is wondering what charity will receive his check. So it got me wondering after the debts are paid off and income is coming from two sources, what will my future husband and myself do with our extra cash. How will we use this money to the best of our abilities for the best of society? I know this blog is about getting out of debt but today we are thinking about the future and what we will do when we get out of debt. What charitable organization do you have slated to receive the fruits of your labor? I like to give to the Christian radio station in town and causes for cancer. My future husband likes to give to causes for mental health mainly ADHD treatment. So I know our 10% however big or small will go to these causes. There is a line in the show above where someone says "Two guys have ascended five miles into the sky, they walked up a wall of ice and are preparing to knock on the door of heaven itself. There's really no end to what we can do. You know what the trick is?" "Get in the game." No matter what you can give, $1 or $5 or $1 million, our job, what God put us here to do is to help others so I challenge you to Get in the game and give a little even as you are crawling out of debt...give a little time, give a smile, give a $1 to the cause you believe in and care about. It makes the crawl out of debt a little easier as you ease someone else's burden too.
God Bless.
