Re: The Official 2019 Debt Smackdown
A very late September update- And my progress has come to a screeching halt! I am paying more than the minimum, but barely. But still doing better since using YNAB than before YNAB. I'll take it.

May check in- this was a wacky month that because of my mistiming some payments ended up with an overdraft transfer. So stupid! I get paid every two weeks and each paycheque is alloted to certain…

Re: The Official 2019 Debt Smackdown
@WairereRose thank you for the encouragement. It was so stupid of me. Getting rewards isn't worth it when I am stressed paying it off. What's the point???

Re: The Official 2019 Debt Smackdown
Only been using YNAB a month or so and have ~20k in CC debt. Yikes! Typing it out makes it very real. My stretch goal is to get rid of it all. I am going to try very, very hard.
