Hey bgunther, welcome to the community!
You've done all that in 10 days?! ...or that's what you're planning on doing?
Either way, it's very impressive and you guys should be congratulated for your first steps! $13,000 / year is very good start!
My little words of caution though, all this saving is just 'on paper' for now. You're in the right mindset, you've looked over your finances, you've made some great planning. But when it comes down to actually saving that $13,000 twelve months from now, that will boil down to the 4,000 little daily decisions you guys will make over the next 365 days. (I.e. you chalked up $2,400 in savings becaues you 'stopped going out for lunch'. This is a great plan, but to get that $2,400 you'll have to not go out for lunch for another 50.5 weeks)
I've seen people in the past draw up a plan, pat them selves on the backs for the great work they planned to do, but didn't do much behaviour modification as they needed because they had already 'banked' their savings in their mind.
You guys are on the right track and I have no doubt you'll be much better off a year from now than if you never came across MMM. :)
Like you I am just starting off (2 months ago). I too always paid off my cc every month, thought I was pretty good with my money. And I too looked through my mint and was shocked at how much I was spending (on food especially).
Last piece of advice - get rid of that Highlander. You're going to get a lot of face punches from everyone on here for keeping that large hunk of metal that gets 20 mpg. Just a guess, but it might also be your biggest potential for savings other than moving closer to work. You won't get much sympathy from people on here about 'needing' an SUV becaues you have offspring.
Cheers and welcome to MMM! :)
