Diary of a Poor Person aged 46 1/2

mrscmr

hi lurker... and welcome to my strange world. i decided to do a diary to show people that debt really does cover all types of people with all kinds of income. just becos u have fancy things and 'appear' well off to the outside world - it doesnt add up that you dont have money issues.

both my OH and i have big earning power [mine is much smaller these days] and this can lead you into think that you are untouchable when it comes to money problems... but if like us you throw it away without a thought and waste it then one day it will come back to bite you in the bum... and boy did we get bitten!

but thanks to this forum i have a place to let it out and not to cry about all the worry - i have such friendly people on here to help - and thanks to people i have the ebay forum - it gave me the courage to start ebaying in march this year!

so yay for us all... keep it up - you are all doing a great job... we fall off the wagon every now and again .. but we know deep down that we have a mission and we WILL complete it.

BE STRONG
