Hi guys,
I haven’t commented in while, but you hit me in the breadbasket. I hope this little story will help somebody. I managed to rack up $20,000 in credit card debt. I kept transferring everything to less than 5%.
I have been paying it off for years, and now owe $4,000 something. However, life has been easier while I racked up $5,500 in more debt. Now I’m back to what Tom use to do, keep transferring…
I’m only posting this because I think its common.
My problem has always been stretching beyond my means to help others. I firmly believe paying it forward works, or my big brother would disown me. I only have 4 yrs & 7 months until my mortgage is paid off here in Kansas.
Until then I will be listening to DTNS….maybe after that. Just Kidding.
Thank you so much Tom, and Eileen for giving so much effort.
Yours truly sovbo, The Sovereign Bohemian
