I can attest to her advise, I lived pay to pay, worked for other people making ok money but making them more money and got 12k in cc debt, I really had to sit down with myself, realize I was blaming everything else for my problems and really looked at how much money I was paying for the debt, I got furious with myself, this was in my late 30s. I did a nuclear assault on my cc debt making payments weekly, once I freed myself of that burden I invested in stocks, started my own business, it's been a hard long road and I'm by no means wealthy but I am rich and I work for myself and not living week to week, 14 years later I own a boat called the S.S Juliaa Advice for younger people – Don't give up!
