copping with dept

shaun40400

hello
this letter is about me coping with adversity and dept been writing since 2 pm and
you will see why when you get to the end,
so here it is in a nut shell
10yrs ago was in car crash lost job, lost wife, lost house, eth
lived in a rented room and lived on pain kille's and anti depressants,
life was crap and the future looked crap !! in major dept for 28 grand,
took a good year to get back on my feet and get payments eth lowered.
manly through self help boards like mse
no i didn't post , just read and gathered inspiration, hope and ammunition for use against the loaners.
so a BIG thank you to everyone who discussed their personnel problems here on mse you help more people than you think
THE FUTURE
met a loverly wonderfull woman 15yrs younger than me ,who took me on with all my troubles and has in spired me since then.
life has been hard (often feell sorrow for her, she should be living life not struggle through it with me)
however we have a beutifull intelligent 5yr oldboy who speaks three languages and is 5 going on 14 aint they all
boy number two is due in 4wks
again things will be tight but life goes on..
and it goes on with a smile depts are down to 20 grand , i /we are in controll,,
i dont know what i was going to write next
im sitting here crying like a baby i just emptied my wallet dont know why and checked my lotto ticket i won 25 grand
my depts are gone,
its took me an hour to finish this letter,i feel sick
i keep stareing at the tv screen to see if im wrong
im not,
ohmy god their gone sorry crying again need to phone o/h

wow. Congratulations. Sounds like you deserve it. Spend (and invest) it wisely.
Sounds like you would have made it debt free anyway - but it'll come sooner now.

Wow ... Shaun! How amazing .... I'm sure I didn't have much to do with this finding its way back into currency, but I'm glad if I had *anything* to do with it. This couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke.
