in Debt-free wannabe
I haven't been on here for ages but I just wanted you to know that I did it, I became debt free ...something I really never thought I would be. For all those feeling that life is caving in on them because of the debt they are in, it IS possible to come out the other side. It has been hard work and I have shed more than a few tears along the way but boy does it feel good!:T
