I am so proud of myself to have finished off paying my debts today. I am now going to start saving the money I earn online and the money that remains from the pocket money provided for by my dad. I plan on saving up enough money to help me in starting up a business when I will be waiting for my first degree graduation. I still don't know what business I will do, I will decide that as I move towards getting done with campus. I know I still have some spending to do but after suffering so much from debts and being a spendthrift, I think I am ready to start learning on how to spend money wisely. I don't plan on getting into debt again.

@a_jerobon Very welcome! I am just about to calculate the debt I am in actually lol It's not a very common thing I get in debt but a lot going on lately so I am in quite a bit of debt. Not a fun thing to calculate but needs to be done.

That is excellent. It can be a real struggle to get out of debt once you're in it. I had the same idea as you, thinking I'd paid off my debts only to have notification that I had others to pay that I didn't even know I owed. It seems that you have been both sensible and lucky enough to have the means to escape it. Hopefully, you'll stay out of debt now and be able to save. I wish you luck with whatever business venture you choose.

That's the best plan. Get out of debt and stay out of debt. Debt sucks, hands down. Best of luck to you on your path to saving.
