    I suppose in the same way a poster may post on the debt board about how it is affecting their relationships.

    Debt is certainly linked to family - my debt was caused through divorce and then I spent the whole of my child's life paying it back.
    Thanks jagraf :)

    My feelings about debt - fury, rage, distress and misery.

    But then it wasn't me that owed money nor me that covered up the stupidity with years of constant deceit and lies.

    I understand now why debt breaks up marriages and families.

    Annoyed, frustrated & more determined than ever to slide tiny amounts over to an "unmarked" account. (Which is then gutted at Christmas & birthdays but can't be 'just dipped into'.)

    I got a right earbashing for not having life insurance - my logic was we plain couldn't afford the premium.
