    My story is similar to yours too, got credit as soon as I moved away from home aged 18, going to college and only working part time, yet getting thousands thrown at me. Very irresponsible of myself but the banks don't help. I have paid every penny back and your right it is something to be proud off.

    Well done xxx
    No you're not a vegetarian if you eat any animal or fish, so do not insult genuine veggies by calling yourself one! :mad:

    Happy Birthday and Congratulations! :beer:

    Been in debt to various degrees since I was 18 too. I'm just over 2 years away from my 30th but I've promised myself I will be debt free before then. And I'll have real savings, which will be quite a novelty for me :D

    That money talks, I don't deny, I heard it once, it said "Goodbye"
