I am 47, single, no kids. I am a health care professional. I feel that I'm generally a very good saver and a not so good budgeter - hence the credit card debt payoff I worked through in 2020.Writing a blog while I watch the College Football National Championship game.
I seem to have a bit more cash in my checking account than I anticipated so I wrote my mom my last loan payment. I hate owing money, but especially when it's my parents. It makes me feel especially irresponsible.
Now that my loan is paid off I will concentrate on paying off other debt. I'm really excited to be focusing on budgeting for the first time. I've always been so focused on saving that I've allowed my debt to get away from me. And honestly, the credit card is much more than listed, but I stopped updating it. My goal is to halve my credit card debt this year & pay it off entirely next year. I've read so many success stories of people paying off even more debt than I have so I know it's possible.

I hope you get angry at that CC debt. LR used to call the enemy the Evil Empire.

Glad you paid off your mom. One debt down!
