Just told wife about debts
Comments
-
Four years ago I was in your shoes, I had just told my OH that I was in a lot of debt, but not how much, basically because I didn't know myself! When I told her, she was VERY angry and rightly so, but when she calmed down she made me open every single credit card and bank statement I had ignored, we found out the real extent of my debt and we worked on it together.
I won't lie to you; the past four years have been tough. There have been tears, but there have been little victories along the way (the PPI claim was one awesome one) and, as you can see by my signature, we have done it.
Very well done for starting this journey to money freedom. Keep posting though as then you will not only receive any support that you need, but you will also inspire others in their journey.
