My dilemma along t...Thank you St Germain and Aruna. My dilemma along these lines of "credit" is that although I understand the message presented here (it reflects my feelings in this area) my wife does not, and feels I am being miserly with money. She has racked up around $8k in credit card debt feeding an internet shopping addiction. This is scary for me because my financial well-being (and my 2 son's) is tied to hers; without her addiction we would certainly have enough to pay the bills every month, and have no debt. It is a crisis created out of an illusion of desire. <br /><br />I have offered a solution of creating a separate account that she can manage that receives $x every month (for example $200) that covers her needs, and would also help reduce that "controller" debt. But this is a hard sell because why accept a small portion of a paycheck when she can have it all? It is because I love her that I haven't forced the issue, but it is also hard to watch a downward spiral without doing something to try to prevent further debt. And whatever I try to do is seen by her as my being "cheap." Detachment from the problem doesn't seem to be a solution. I have even tried blocking certain websites but there are always more web sites to shop at.<br /><br />Regarding the college student question: It doesn't matter what school you go to so long as you get your degree. My advice would be to find an option that doesn't cost so much money, which might involve a local community college, and/ or reducing your living expenses to where they're more manageable. You can also decrease the expectations for your degree - maybe there is something you can do that would take less time to complete, in a different field? Also, do what you love, not what you're told to do. This is key to future success. I joined the army reserve and this helped pay the bills (in addition to being a contractor), but I understand this option isn't for everyone. Good luck, my friend!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6988137843086774930.post-67714746002778911002012-09-12T10:35:12.549-03:002012-09-12T10:35:12.549-03:00In case you haven't read it.

To you from Melchezidek(Masters and Mankind blog):In the case of one inquirer who has many debts and is attending college, I recommend a temporary debt reducing college break and then a search for money to continue that does not accrue debt, say a grant or scholarship. Having less debt will not only decrease your cash dilemma when the dollar drops in value, you will also need more money to clear the debts you now have if you delay payment for another few years.

Is it more advisable to drop all education goals than accrue more debt? I am 24 y/o and trying to decide between the importance of a university degree versus student loan. Without a degree the current loan debt would feel pointless.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6988137843086774930.post-1630068986393977462012-09-11T14:53:36.833-03:002012-09-11T14:53:36.833-03:00Thank You for this message Ascended Master Saint G...Thank You for this message Ascended Master Saint Germain and Aruna.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
