Have too much money? Tired of flaunting your cash all the time? Pay cash for everything? My strategy can help you get in debt fast! Here are a 5 simple steps!
1. Start w/ no money management skills, spend money AS SOON as you get it!
2. Live WAY beyond your means! Get that Corvette or Harley, you know you want it & customize the shit out of it!
3. Buy a House! They suck up money fast!
4. Use credit cards to live! Dont have money for groceries or gas? use your credit card! its FREE money!
5. Deny you have a problem! See that CC statement say you owe $8000 & ignore it! All that means is you have $2000 left to spend!
Follow these steps & youll be sure to have a bad credit rating at all times!
OK! Obviously DONT follow these steps or your life is gonna get hard in a hurry! My debt started when I moved out of my parents house. I was the only one w/ a CC, So I put all the deposit & moving expenses on my card, my 2 roommates paid me back but I blew all the money. When i moved out we got a great place but it was expensive! I was only making about $1000 a month & had a car bill & cell & few other bills so i started using CCs to live. I maxed out my CC in about 6 months. Food, beer, electronics, everything went on the card. I was quickly in debt. My mom was kind enough to do a balance transfer but in no time I had it maxed out again, The problem was i didnt have enough money to live. I got a house & could afford the mortgage & my bills but NOTHING else, no food, beer anything so I got the CC & kept spending, pretty soon I had 4 cards, the balance were $10,000, $8,000, $1600, $1200 All but one was maxed out, I realized that i had so much CC debt (though i always pay atleast the minimums) my credit score was shot. My debt to income ratio was too high. So I realized I had to do something, I cut up & tossed all my CCs, I was BROKE! I couldnt go out, I had about $20/week for groceries which I was able to budget to feed myself, I also got a 2nd job as a server & every cent goes to cc debt, so far im applying the snowball method, pay off the lowest balances (to get a sense of accomplishment) and then il take those payments & apply all of them to the next card & so on, its gonna take a while, but im also gonna put tax returns & every other income I get to debt, I just gotta get it done! I have learned my lesson for sure! I dont plan on ever having a CC again, I may not have any loans either (except mortgage) Im gonna have to buckle down & get this done, I got a good bike, a serviceable car (since my dad is a mechanic) so now its time to knock it out! Im ready!
