All These Good Luck Mantra Things

.......I would just like to ask you all to stop. It would seem that everytime someone else has good luck I get the complete opposite.
Since reading about "money coming easy to me" and "money chanting" or whatever I've had nothing but crap happen to me! :rolleyes:
The screen on my cars sat nav system has gone. God knows how much that is going to cost to fix.
I can only listen to the CD in my car coz the radio button has stopped working on the face unit. Again who knows how much to fix.
Two items on Quidco haven't tracked and they cost me £30.
I've hurt my foot which means I can only walk about on my toes. Other than looking like a complete !!!!!! it will probably wear my shoes down quicker aswell costing me more money.
Today I got a parking fine. Even offered the traffic warden a bribe of £20 not to issue it but got turned down!
Also realised I've got a wedding to go to next month and have forgotten to book accomadation.
So please, I beg you, please stop with all these positive thoughts. You are breaking a broken man even more!

Sounds good to me!:rolleyes:I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

My CD player in the car doesn't work very well.........perhaps it has something to do with the 7-up can explosion which took place during the hot weather! Sticky buttons!:DOctober make £10/day currently £11.020

It's a bit like the Mint credit card advert really isn't it? For every clever thing that happens, something dumb happens elsewhere!
