Hi all,
I just wanted to say Thanks to the site and its contributors! In short,since working since I left school 26 years ago,I've made some poor financial (and otherwise) decisions over the years that have seen my house repossessed,a car repossessed,constant living in the over draft all at different times with barely any money for the nappies and food each week...despite working 12 hrs 6-7 days for over time.
Granted...this was in the days before the internet and therefore I had no financial guidance,we just muddled through!
Over the past few years though,through following the suggestions on here and taking the time to read up the articles,I'm now in a position were I own my own home again,have a nice car, I have really really good credit and manageable healthy debt to enjoy life.
I'm not wealthy by any means,live a modest life style and still work hard, but the stress and anxiety that comes with debt is gone.All it took is patience and self control and the passage of time.Everything I've learnt has come from MSE.
So I just wanted to say Thanks to Martin & the team and all who contribute to a life changing forum!
