I saw that yesterday. I'm still getiing various phone calls etc, from people i've never heard of. Maybe i'll change my phone number, with my new life, but its so much hassle, as i use it for work. So many companies to tell. Its bad enough changing address.Debt free - Is it a state of mind? a state of the Universe? or a state of the bank account?
