But little victories as you go along can make it easier. Good post. I would recommend listening to the free Dave Ramsey podcast every day. I am not pushing his "system" that he sells, just the free version of his podcast. It's a half hour long and very motivational. Good luck and be well. Peter,

I guess there is no way but CC to shop online, unless you hook Paypal up to your bank account. With all the crazy scams and hacking online, I actually think a CC is the safest way to go. Did you always stick by the CCs only online rule, or is that something you switched to? If you switched, how have you found the change affect your debt management? Thanks for the advice.

It can be hard not to use credit cards, but moving over to cash is one way to be sure you know how much you are spending. I personally only use credit cards online, and cash or debit for "real world" things. Congrats on your choices to eliminate debt.

I'll have to try that. @Glen If only I had your wisdom at your age, things may have been different. But instead, I have learned many things the hard way. BTW...you did not miss much with the video this time. @WD

Personally (and I don't know if it's possible) but I'm trying to be in a situation where I'm never in debt. I'm still young so haven't really made or needed to make any big purchases but I am working on my financial situation for times when things like this happen. I don't plan on buying a car (i rent) or home anytime soon as I want to travel the world more so I might be in a better position when the time comes ;) Cheers, Glen Love the animated gif at the top there haha, I’ll have to check out the video at home as work is quite strict on those.

I treat them as though they are pressed by the devil. I’ll use a debit card, but I only use a credit card if I absolutely have to. I treat them as though they are pressed by the devil.
