Bills paid off

May 1st, 2006 at 06:27 pm

Dad approached us a few weeks ago with an offer to loan us some money in order to pay off our high-interest credit cards. We gratefully accepted and now I feel like a weight has been lifted off of my shoulders. No more late fees! No more high interest! Now we just make payments to the Bank of Dad. One of my paychecks will go towards paying him back, and the other will be for bills (gas, electric, cable, etc.) and savings. DH will cover the mortgage and groceries. It feels good to get out from under those fees and charges, and have a set plan finally.

    That is great news!! Now, try not to charge any more.

    Yes, just freeze the credit cards! Close some of them down if you have too many. Don't fall into the trap again.
    Use cash only if that makes it work.

    The worst that could happen is that you fail your payments to your own dad.

    What a nice thing for him to do. I agree with everyone else. No more charging, cash only.

    I bet it brought your dad as much joy to help you out...as it did you!

    Sounds like a second chance to me....make dad proud with what you do with it!!!
