As anyone my age can tell you one thing we seem to overlook and never really notice until we go to buy that hot new car or even in some cases a house, is our credit.
I made a few financial mistakes in my life, I admit, we all do. I've heard we all get out it and then at some point plunge right back into debt. Debt isn't fun, that's for sure. It's a nice little chunk of our paycheck gone before we can enjoy, but we did enjoy it, we just enjoyed at a time when we couldn't afford it right away.
Well just this week I made some headway into clearing my debt. Now I've heard that it's not a good idea to pay everything off at once, which is okay by me, because I haven't won the lottery yet. But it felt so good this week to write those checks to finish paying off some of my more substantial debts, sigh...........
Now I am able to pay off more on my other lines of credit i.e., computer, specialty store cards, etc...
And in about 6 months to a year I'll be back in debt when I buy that new car I've been eyeing up lately, hehe.
