    Default A Belated "Hi"

    Hi,

    I've been reading the forums on and off for a while, and posted a few times, but haven't posted an introduction yet.

    I came to this site because of years of financial problems. I have chronic pain, so I deal not only with health and insurance costs, but I also sometimes have to leave jobs because I can't handle the physical requirements.

    Right now I'm in a good situation. I just started a good job, have a stable place to live, and plan to stop using my credit cards on Labor Day.

    I hope to be visiting here daily to learn and share.

    Gina from Chicago
