Watch some Dave Ramsay on YouTube and start to rethink how you spend money. I will never take a loan again in my life. (Just paid cash for my car and cash for my house).

I have $25k student loans from undergrad and about $10k in cc debt currently. At least there’s an end in sight

I took out a personal loan thru Sofi for over $16k of credit card debt in October. It helped tremendously. I'll be paid off in 3 months and my credit score is 800+. I had such anxiety but looking at the significantly lower interest rate and consolidation made it make sense. Previously, I was throwing large payments at the debt across cards and going nowhere. Then would end up living on credit since I used all my cash to pay the cards. Had to be disciplined to limit spending to debit only and be honest with what I needed to keep liquid. Good luck!

A1- happy to explain more. Feel free to message me with your questions.
My interest rate is 7% (I think). I didnt want to open another card. My other interest rates are north of 20%.

What are some strategies for paying off massive amount of credit card debt?

like

As I mentioned above. Just be real with what you can afford to dump into payments. I got in trouble by putting too much in and not having enough cash to live so lived off credit and it spirals.

Ladies, please impart some sense into me. This guy pursued me relentlessly and though I wasn’t sure because of age diff (me considerably older), he convinced me. He seems pretty mature and nice, but we are in diff states. He just said he is in US on a visa for a year and what happens next is not in his control. I am developing feelings for him but want to be rational and not risk all that I have worked hard for - career, financial stability,etc going after this guy. Please be gentle 😢😩

My SO and I plan on settling down, but, I was pretty surprised when he asked if I would sign a prenup. I currently make almost 3 times what he makes. He is in the process of finalizing a social media app that he expects to be very successful, however, its made me a bit uncomfortable that he would suggest this when I have been with him all along when he's had little. Being that I have no filter, I asked him what pray tell, does he think I am after?? What are your views on prenups/postnups?
