A while back, I got into some financial difficulty due to my inability to delay gratification. Meaning, I spent money like there was no tommorow. I racked up a considerable debt, considering my meager earnings. $26,000 and change, all on credit cards. :smack:

I entered in to Debt Management. I pay them $625.00 a month, and whatever else I could spare has gone to creditors.

Well, today it ends. Today I mail the last payment!!! I have cleared up a 26K debt1!! Yay me!!!

Debt free now? No. I did buy a car last month.:eek: 😃

But it was a goal. I thought, at times, I would never reach it.

Feels pretty darn good.
