Start The New Year With Me Getting Out Of Debt

I'm building this site up to be a great place to get advice about how to get out of debt. I strive to provide new tips on a weekly basis on ways to win the war against the creditors hounding you to make your payments. Let's face it, being in debt is a HUGE problem in today's world. Everyone is putting everything on credit cards and it's a trend that seems to start at a very young age. For me, I got my first credit card at 16 years old to a major department store. From there it grew to several credit cards with different banks until at a ripe age of 20 I found myself already struggling with payments. I did the right thing and by age 22 I was on my way to getting debt free. I had joined a credit counseling program and by age 27 I had just about paid everything off until the next major phase in life hit...buying a home. At that point it was too easy to put every single thing I could think of on credit cards to help furnish and decorate my new home that I was so proud of and wanted it all to be just right. The concept of "buy now and pay later" was always the greatest thought on my mind. Now at age 30, my family and I are in over our heads with credit card debt. My goal is to start concentrating seriously on the problem before it takes everything away from us.

So here's the plan, I hope you will join me on a journey to get out of debt. I have some great tips that I've learned through my ups and downs with credit card companies. I am going to put them to good use and help you as well. Take a moment to subscribe to my blog and join me daily for new updates on how the process is going for me and you just might find some great ideas for yourself as well. Take care and God bless.
