I thought my husband and I were the only ones to have such high debt. I've felt lonely and deeply ashamed over our $43000 in credit card debt. It's taken a year but we're now at $31,337. It's been even more overwhelming lately. We have 5 school age children, one of which will be a senior this year, so along with coming up with school clothes, we've had senior pics,class ring etc. Recently there have been unexpected medical bills and a major car repair that didn't repair the car (but that's another story)--all of which make it hard to focus on our debt. Your blog has been inspirational for me today-- I congratulate you for getting under the $20K and more importantly, for sharing your story. Tricia,

Some people choose to get a credit card for cash flow purposes. With a credit card, you can make purchases and buy things, leaving your paycheck or other source of income in your bank account to draw interest.<br /> </p> The first thing you’ll need to decide when choosing your credit card, is why you need one in the first place.

Good luck in the future. I was wondering if you had any non credit card debt. Any mortgage, school, car, home equity, etc loans? If so, how do these change your goals of paying off your debt? If not, how would they? Congrats. Good luck in the future.

Our CC debt is $2 shy from being under $10,000 for the first time since, well, mid-college or so (about 9-10 years ago). I'm not counting 5k I just put on another card for tuition since that should be reimbursed by work in the next month or two, and we paid it off with some savings until then. Congrats!
