As of today I have three payments left to be 100% out of credit card debt. I got myself around 20k behind in a year from various emergencies that drained my savings first but now I owe less than 2k

That’d awesome! What’s some advice you’d give to keep someone from falling into that? I’m good with my money right now but just barely breaking even.

For me I still only used my credit cards while paying them down and when I get paid every week assuming I didn’t have a bill going through my checking account that week I sent my entire check to my credit cards the same night I got paid that way it didn’t even feel like the money came into my acc.Also adding someone to my credit card app so they got an alert when I spent money made me sit and think if I actually wanted to spend the money since someone else would see it and that was a huge help.

I also switched which cars I would use every few weeks so I didn’t spend too much on one without noticing
