About me

Hi,

Okay so this is my first entry into this. I am going to be using this to keep track of how I get out of debtors hell without filing bankruptcy. I paid off alot of debt with a loan I recieved from Prosper but unfortunatly I got more companies and bills I owe that did not show on my credit report when I got the loan. I also so some income and unfortunatly it made me get behind and my hard work has once again become null and void.

So here is where I am right now. I am finally have most of my household bills back in order with the exception of my light bill (Georgia Power is killing me)and my phone bill. I am praying that everything will be back to normal as I begin the new years with a new goal this year. To get my credit score up by 75 points and get my debt down by at least 5,000. Also getting my one credit card down to a 0 balance.

So I hope people will tune in and read my little blog as I try to achieve my goal of becoming debt free.

So right now my income is the following:

1415/month (Pay check)
276/month (child Support)- I DO NOT COUNT THIS AS THE FATHER LIKES TO CHANGE JOBS so I will include this in the budget as a bi-weekly thing)

**PLEASE NOTE**
60 a month goes into a emergency saving account.

1415 Monthly

496 Rent
295 Car note/car insurance
35 phone
11 internet (cant get DSL need it though)
105 lights (that budget billing)
28 gas (i was excited about seeing that)
126 Prosper Loan
88 Amex
50 Tribute
