  4. Debt Reduction & Money Management
    I don't even know where to begin. Long story short. I married him and he had a lot of debt. (yeah yeah) He made a lot more and all is in his name. All this time I have tried my best to get us on board together. I am the one that pays the bills and tries to keep up with it all and that's fine...
  5. Debt Reduction & Money Management
    My next step in my debt reduction has got me somewhat stumped and I was wondering if someone can do the math for me or give me advice. A few years ago we bought a timeshare (not our wisest financial decision). This is at 10.9% APR and is tax deductible interest. However, I have a credit line...

    So, I wrote in another post how I had a total meltdown the other night. It wasnt all about finances, but finances were probably the underlying cause.

    Dh is facing a layoff. He expects the company will start trimming the dead weight in the next 4-8 weeks. His productivity sits at 100-125%, while co-workers are at 20%. So he *should* be safe for the first round or two. He is also supervisory and very versatile on the machines they work on, he...

    I've been telling my Mom for months how I get a ton of food and HBA for next to nothing. She'd just respond with "that's good dear". Well, my parents came into town for the weekend and DBF was using my truck to get firewood, so I asked my Mom if she'd take me grocery shopping. I had been...
