Hi,
Not to drag this on too long. I decided to start going to Debtors Anonymous
meetings and all though I am just in the beginning stages of dealing with
this, I am starting to gain hope that it will help. With all the other
things that have gone on with me in the last two years, I view this as a
good thing. And, in case anyone wants to know, the opportunity to volunteer
for Bookshare and rub elbows with the great people on this list has been
such a blessing that I can't put it into words. Writing this is making me
get a lump in my throat. OK , enough for now.

Thanks.

Jim

Years ag I was in severe debt to the tune of several thousand dollars.

I wrote down everything I spent by carrying a casette recorder and
just inputting everything and I mean everything including the
purchases for a dollar and under.

I did nothing else. It helped tremendously. I got out of debt by just
getting conscious of what I was doing which is where writing down
things helps.

I made no formal budget other than that and paid off the debt every
week a little at a time until it was gone.

Hope this personal input is useful to somebody.

I have never been in debt since.
