Honestly, I’m looking forward to this year being over with and starting my life with my soon to be wife. If you’re struggling with debt and you’re unable to have help emotionally, and financially, then depending on how big your debt level is I suggest three options. Those options are find a way to lower your expenses and increase income, close all open accounts and leave one card open and begin negotiating your debt with your creditors, and finally consider bankruptcy. The third option is an option of last resort, but bankruptcy is a way to start over. Don’t let your debt and finances take you to the place where you would harm yourself or others. If bankruptcy is the only option, then I suggest you contact multiple bankruptcy attorneys.
Fortunately, in my situation, I’ve openly discussed my finances with my fiancé and she’s openly discussed her finances too. We’re considering different debt consolidation options together, discussing a debt repayment strategy as well as how to grow our existing businesses. We openly discuss every topic with each other and being in our mid-thirties we’re comfortable enough to not need much. I encourage you to find someone to openly discuss your finances with. The first step to becoming debt free is in your thinking, and the next step is having a budget. My questions to you are how much do you make? Is that gross or net income? What is your bottom line number? Knowing your thoughts and knowing your numbers is critical to not just get out of debt but grabbing control of your financial future.
If you want to learn more about how I’m increasing my income, while reducing debt or if you want to have someone to discuss your debt reduction strategy with, or if you need a financial check-up, contact me.
The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.
