We're going to an amazing AMTC talent contest this summer and are scrimping, saving, and doing odd jobs to be able to pay for our trip without increasing our debt or slowing our progress towards financial freedom so if you have any odd jobs, please shoot us an email at dlgordoni@gmail.com.

Don will be competing in singing and acting competitions and everyone in the family will be able to attend classes and talent shows. To learn more about AMTC visit http://www.amtcworld.com/.
