Well, I'm all settled out with last year's credit card & payment
database, and got 2002's started.
Last year, I started 2001 with $5482.22 in debt
I ended 2001 with $7765.05 in debt
I paid $7018.75 towards my credit cards in 2001
That is a lot of fucking money.
I don't even know what I'd do with 7 grand in 'real money' in 'real
life'.
I know I don't need to make any resolutions & get all pissy and
depressed and self-hating when they don't work out, but I am going to
TRY to get my personal debts to ZERO by July of this year. Then I
will have 5 months to work on getting my Magpie debts to 0 by
December.
No big Xmas spending orgy in December.
No Faire this year.
No big spending this year.
No travel this year.
ALL extra money goes to the debts.
I will be doing very well if I can get away from the debts and put
away the $ I am currently blowing on Credit Cards & Interest into
savings instead. I could have a respectable nest egg in just a few
years. OR I could have some new furniture, etc. Hm. Anyway. I want to
get out from under the credit cards. Period.
