Debt - Blog Posts
btw while people continue to fight the system don't forget about Undue Medical Debt (formerly RIP Medical Debt), a charity that buys and forgives medical debt. on average a donation of $10 will forgive $1,000 of medical debt.

Auxly Cannabis closed $3M financing of unsecured convertible debentures
Some 3.5 billion people are financially illiterate around the world.
"Isn't it odd that the governing state needs PRECISELY $6,000,000,000,000 (Six trillion dollars) to resolve the COVID-19 crisis? With only the minority of this money going to people who collect under $175k... Why would this number NOT be used to the Dollar?"
These days, beauty is packaged and sold.
That box there is this weirdly specific hair
colour whose name
sounds like a desperate student’s last ditch
efforts to meet the word count
That shampoo is a scent that sounds like an
overenthusiastic writer’s sensory description
That t-shirt is designed to make you look slim
Mirrors are our enemies
Make-up our allies
and we gobble it up,
Burying our identities in
Consumer debt and social expectations.

Listen to me as I say a story...
Once upon a time, long long ago, Greece was rich and had lots of money, The end. Ps. Sorry.
Hi There
My name is C and this blog is a documentation of my debt free journey as well as my journey into starting lifting weight and making better habits for myself.
I am 29, married to a great guy named A and unfortunately have quite a bit of debt. It's a combination of credit cards, personal loans, and student loans. And my goal is to get out of debt while actually living my life, saving for trips that I want to take in the future once I am debt free, and while still drinking iced coffee like the millennial that I am.
This blog isn't financial advice and I also am not requesting any, this blog is anti Dave Ramsey, and is a safe space for those of us who have had to use debt to survive.
The second part of this blog will revolve around myself making working out a regular part of my life again. I was pretty consistent a few months ago but I unfortunately I got in my head and completely stopped. I am not looking for weight loss but really fat loss and even that is something that has no dead line, in fact I would prefer it to take a longer time so I know that it is sustainable and I have as little loose skin as possible which I know will be hard.
So yeah that's the basic introduction! Would love for anyone to join either of my journeys to better ourselves!
normally detest doing things like this but: been in some financial straits as of late (debt, late bills and stuff.) any little bit would help or at least some signal boosting.

Stock markets are now trading at new all time highs. Last week, the Federal Reserve announced that they would not cut their current $85 billion a month QE-3 program. In other words, the central bank to the United States wants to keep interest rates extremely low in order to boost the U.S. economy. They also continue to buy mortgage backed securities and U.S. treasuries to keep the recent housing boom intact. Some members of the Federal Reserve such as Richard Fisher have strongly opposed the action by the Federal Reserve, but that does not seem to change the fact that the central bank’s balance sheet is now around $4 trillion. That is a lot of money printing over the past five years and it is still growing. Next, there is the United States debt ceiling debate between President Obama and the U.S. Congress that is heating up. The U.S. debt has climbed to $16.95 trillion. Many individuals will blame President Obama for the large increase in debt, but in all fairness every U.S. president has raised the debt ceiling. The only thing that could bring down the current U.S. debt would be economic growth, but unfortunately when a country grows at 2.0 percent a year it is very difficult to bring down the U.S. debt in a meaningful way. The number of people in the United States receiving benefits from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (formerly known as food stamps) is now just over 47 million. Then there is the money spent on wars and other conflicts, some experts say that the Iraq war cost over $3 trillion alone. Is all of this spending by the United States government ever going to stop? How can a country in so much debt continue to spend money it does not have? At this time, that does not seem to matter. The stock markets remains at or near all time highs. The markets do not seem to be worried about the weak U.S. economy, the debt, the people on public assistance, or the wars. When the stock market starts to panic that will be the time to worry that the problems are becoming to big too handle. Remember, the warning signs that told us that the housing and credit bubble was about to burst started to show up late 2005 when the housing stocks topped out, but the Dow Jones Industrial Average did not top out until October 2007. At that time, the central bankers were telling us that there were no problems on the horizon, but we all know now that the great recession was already underway despite the calming words from Ben Bernanke and the central bankers. Right now we are looking at the great disconnect, but everyone should just trade until the market tells us otherwise.
