Sean and I are working on getting his credit cards paid off. He made the mistake of maxing them out and now he’s working hard on getting everything paid back. I’m sure it wouldn’t take very long, he basically only needs to come up with $2500 so that he can be in the clear. I also think getting that one bill out of his hair every month will make him a happier person. He’s bought computers, mother boards, a digital camera and I think his XBox360 on one of his cards so naturally it’s going to max out quicker than anticipated. I think he’s working on his third motherboard or something, not quite sure. Either way if it gets to be too much for him, I’ve told him to consider looking into some form of credit card debt consolidation because it’s a bitch to have such credit problems at a young age. He’s only 22, so to have to deal with this it’s kind of absurd. He’s working hard on getting it all taken care of though, guess that’s all that matters.
Thing is, eventually we’re going to work on buying a house and what not and I don’t want to have everything in my name because my credit just happens to be better than his at the moment. I think that’s based on the fact that I only really spend what I have though, I got rid of my American Express card. I hate to cancel that thing because it was great for emergencies but even with a credit score in the mid 700’s, it was a rather high interest rate that I just didn’t want to deal with. I don’t really believe that a $100 purchase should cost me $180, you know?
dude, your blog of the day at ppp! congrats!!!!!!!1
