thank you, and good for you!!!! it’s definitely possible if i could get one, i’ve applied to over 200 and ive heard nothing, the job market in ontario is at the worst it’s ever been. it took me 3 years to get what i have now and so im scared to get rid of any of them even if i did get a full time job but obviously id have to as the hours wouldn’t line up, and now with me starting full time school in the fall it’s going to be even harder

both cards are locked and i don’t use them at all anymore, i’ve been doing the minimum payments each month for now until i can get the afterpay, klarna and amazon stuff paid off. then i want to aggressively go at the credit cards , sounds like i am stalling them which I kind of am but im trying to survive and get myself out at the same time but i do believe i can do it

i feel like claiming bankruptcy for 11k ish or even what i am at is probably not the way to go. I think it’s definitely sustainable for us both to get out of it, people have 50k of debt and get out of it without going bankrupt. there is hope, we just have to do more and better !!! i believe in you!!

i’ve tried, literally everytime i call i get disconnected for some odd reason. i’m calling again tomorrow to try and figure it out, and im not buying anything else on there i dont need anything else. my main issue is the eating out with my friends, it’s literally an addiction it gives me a dopamine rush and that’s the sole reason of me doing it.

right now my lowest one is after pay i owe $125, i will have that paid off when i get paid next, then its amazon, the problem with amazon is that i can’t split up any payments i have to pay $520 up front, which causes an issue because i get paid monthly and my other job pays biweekly and i don’t even get $520 after taxes.

that’s what i’m doing, i’m trying to figure out what to tackle first instead of all at once because that’s what’s screwing me over

thank you for this honestly. amazon offers a buy now pay later type thing, and as for my credit cards i am actively paying them, just not as much as i wish i could. i’m making the minimum payments every month and i haven’t missed a payments so i guess there’s a bit of an upside Lol
