Ladies, my credit car is paid off.  All my bills are paid off.  I don't owe anyone a dang thing anymore.

 

And it feels good.

  • please tell me how you did it, I mean I 'm trying to pay off stuff but it's kinda hard when you don't make a lot of money. My pay is decent but it's gonna be a minute before I can get debt free. I've been watching dave ramsey and suze orman for tips.

  • we dont make very much money either, but we kept paying our minimum payments until tax time rolled around. that pretty much knocked out all our past due bills. i dont really have a secret or a plan. i just kept paying all my bills with the minimum payment, and always on time (those late fees are rediculous!) good luck . . .

  • congratulations on your new found freedom!!!

    ***just a tip and not a kill-joy moment, "do keep a watchful eye on your credit now my dear, because good credit now-a-days also means "MOST ELIGIBLE & PREFERABLE credit" to those who steal identities." most never say this but it's true, when you have bad credit nobody else can do anything with it EITHER.

    Now stay free and be awarelove you sign!!!

  • That's wonderful. I'm trying to get on track myself, just don't know where to begin. Any tips you can offer? 

    Blessings always,

  • Congrats! Any tips?

    I've got so much debt until I'm a bit pessimistic about paying it all completely off anytime soon without some kind of winfall.
