If the income is not covering basic living expenses, than you need to make more money or come up with (semi?) radical ideas to cut living expenses: cheaper place to live, reduction in utility packages, cell phone bills, etc. I'm a new reader, so apologies if you've already thought of/done all of that.<br /><br />Can you pick up additional part-time work and throw that money at the debt?Hawaii Plannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04760426766801381563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2423827822739128743.post-79577177122701408252011-10-24T11:40:26.001-04:002011-10-24T11:40:26.001-04:00I am right there with you.
