Fabulous Fifties

Well, I can cross another goal off my list - I've reached the fifties!

Honestly, although it's been a struggle and I've had to re-organise my entire lifestyle, I cannot tell you how happy I am. Even at $58,000 worth of debt, I am in a better place. Everything is so much more manageable.

I have savings! SAVINGS!!

I wish I could take everyone who is in debt and show them how to manage it and get out of it with your sanity intact. It was really, really, really hard at some times, but taking small steps and thinking things through got me to the other side. And that is really where I feel I am. On the other side.

I've paid off more than $73,000 worth of debt and it's the most empowering thing I've ever done. Women say natural childbirth is empowering, well, a sister should try some debt repayment!

I feel like I can achieve anything now - and this last bit of debt repayment is going to be as simple as .. well ... Simon.
