The Cheapass Blog, as it was then known, was born out of sheer frustration with the hope of paying down a $120,000 debt much faster than the average debtor without filing for bankruptcy.From years of writing on the Yes, I Am Cheap blog, Sandy has tested numerous common techniques for getting out of debt including: debt consolidation, debt management plans, debt negotiation, working from home, the snowball technique, the envelope system, no spend challenges, extreme couponing and just about every other personal finance trick in the book.  She likes to refer to herself as the “guinea pig” of debt reduction techniques.On January 1, 2013, Sandy resolved to see just how much she could reduce her debt in a two year period.  By December 31, 2014, Sandy successfully reduced her debt by over $50,000 – all during a volatile period of employment for her.  During those two years, she was unemployed for six months before working as a temp for ten months before converting to a full-time employee.  This achievement led Yahoo! Finance to name Sandy’s story the #3 most inspiring personal finance stories of 2014.   Now a Certified Financial Education instructor, Sandy is dedicated to helping others put together their own formula for financial freedom.Sandy is also a Senior Certified HR Professional; holds a Bachelor of Science in Biology from St. John’s University and M.B.A. from Devry University’s Keller Graduate School.
