words of wisdom

if you are 18 and excited at the prospect of credit cards: stop. take a money management class. talk to your parents. talk to anyone older with sound finances. get advice and guidance. do not fall into the traps young folks are tempted into these days. believe me, whatever you are planning on splurging on is not worth it. if you cant afford it without the cards, you dont need to be charging it.

take it from someone who’s been working a not-so-grand full time job for four years, struggling to pay off debts from cards long destroyed. take it from someone who has to choose between eating sometimes or paying their car insurance. take it from someone who would kill for new work shoes that dont leak in water when it rains.

it seems innocent enough, but you will get sucked in and trapped for years and years and years. and for those without well-off parents to swoop in and rescue you from your own bad decisions, it’s a tough price to pay for ignorance.

Apparently all I need to get up an running with my computer is a new hard drive — go figure. I’ll probably get one in the next few days, if I get my tax refund on time. I’m pretty excited about that.

Until then, all I’ve got is borrowed time on a computer that isnt mine.
