    Talking New and looking forward to sharing my storing with you all!

    Hello,
    I wanted to say hi and introduce myself ...i found this wonderful forum through googling debt free stories. What an inspiration I have found here! I have been battling with debt since 2006 when I became very depressed and decided to "self-medicate" through the use of credit cards. When I finally faced the total amount, it was 29k which was October of 2007. Now, after finding alot of wonderful and useful information on the world wide web about debt snowball plans, as of tomorrow my debt will be 20,754. My snowball is about 2k per month, which is difficult, but I am commited towards getting this paid off. My debt will be paid off by Feb 2010. (FINGERS CROSSED!!) Thank you for reading this
