It takes a lot of guts to put this out there, but I think it's a great way to stick to your goal and make all your friends know what you're trying to accomplish. I know it can be hard with people presurring you to do expensive things. We will do our best to support you. There are so many things that cost very little but are still so much fun. Good luck on your journey, John. I know you can do it!cupcaithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10791431465356750428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3424731607725929459.post-49412128648813770732010-10-21T23:14:02.864-04:002010-10-21T23:14:02.864-04:00John,

Took a lot of guts to go the blog route, but studies show that making a public record forces you to actually accomplish your goal. I just recently went debt free (no student line of credit, OSAP, family debt or credit card debt).<br /><br />For your credit card debt, I would switch to Capital One Mastercard and transfer your balance...their interest rate on debt owing is something like 6.99% instead of 19% like most credit cards. You don't get any fringe benefits but the low interest rate makes it more than worth it! Also, when a credit card company ups your credit limit without asking you (which they do all the time), call them and tell them to get rid of the credit increase. They want you to spend money!<br /><br />Good luck,<br /><br />ChrisUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15380108068563841685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3424731607725929459.post-87956509657084950152010-10-21T22:31:27.424-04:002010-10-21T22:31:27.424-04:00Hey Jon,
