    Default Hello, new here, Colorado Springs

    Hello. I am new here, and I just moved to Colorado Springs, CO.

    I am about $25,000 in debt, and we're living on the bare basics trying to survive. I had to pawn a ring my mother gave me just to pay my cell phone bill (and no, the cell phone isn't an option, it's a must.)

    This site looks like a good place to start, and I cant wait to look around!

    Welcome from the eastern plains of Colorado.

    You'll find many great ideas here on how live on a small budget and pay off your debt. I'm sorry about your mom's ring having to be pawned, maybe you can buy it back at some point.
