    It all adds up doesn't it?
    I found this 'cash flow' to be a real issue when doing lots of Virgin parties. I would, if possible, insist on people paying by card/cash at party or cheque.
    Several times, I would be 'owed' upwards of £400-500!
    And I paid for the 'interest' which is one of the (many) ways I got into debt.
    That's it.. I don't mind doing it for friends but for people I don't know I think I'm only going to do it if they're absolutely desperate.

  • :hello: Hi ia
    Just wanted to say hello, as I've sat and read this thread over the last couple of days and found it funny, interesting and motivating. You are indeed amazingly busy! It's great for a newbie like me to see someone doing so much and being so pro-active in sorting out their debts, so thanks for sharing it with us.
    I love IPTW so will enjoy seeing you on there tonight, and I'll be checking back in on this thread - there's definitely a need for more people like you working as debt advisors, as it's all about empathy I think.

    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    LOL nope she's here. Don't worry I think if she had her way she'd stay there all the time though!

    In spot related news there aren't any more and the ones she has are fading away. :T

    She had some unidentified rash type spots yesterday which we thought may have been chickenpox... but other than a cold she's fine now. :)
