I'm in a lot of debt and have been since I was 18 and my student bank account gave me a credit card and an overdraft. It's been the bane of my life ever since and I'm now 41. It's currently well over £22k. I don't even check the amount anymore as it distresses me too much to think about it. I have big monthly repayments set up but as I continue to spend on credit cards the total amount rarely decreases.
I'm just shite with money and an impulsive spender. I don't spend on myself but on my children. Can't wait for payday tomorrow. I earn a good salary as does my husband but I can never seem to make any headway. And the last week of the month is always agony.
It scares me how easy it is to get into debt up to your eyeballs. We bought a house recently and the bank were offering to lend us up to £600k. Even with my debts. Luckily my husband is captain sensible. I'd be bankrupt many times over if it wasn't for him.
Um. Thanks for letting me unburden myself.
