A wee bit cathartic?

A wee bit cathartic?

Part 1

Hello all I have been reading and doing so well with taking ideas to get rid of the debt that I have decided that as I reach the end 1 and a half years or two year to clear the final amounts. I will be brief to start with. I am doing this cause well for me and I hope that some one anyone! Will see that you can get out from under all of this and have a life.

1 I was a student (no excuse) and though that the money was free.
2 I released (too late) that the money was not free.
3 I ran away for it all and thought it will get better all by its self (it didn’t SHOCKER)

4 years ago got very depresses (hurrah for Prozac) I decided that I was going to do something about the money I owed. Went to CAB:A, they cannot be recommend enough in my book and laid the whole lot out for them.

3 credit cards 2 over there limits one about too.
1 loan not long taken out to clear the other debt but didn’t work out like that.
3 over daft with 3 different banks.
Council tax

All this was over £15000:eek: my job at the time paying £13500 poo!

The CAB :Agot them all off my back so that I could try to sort my life out.
