Debt Consolidation Vancouver

If you’ve ever watched To Debt Do Us Part, you will know that one of the things they suggest is putting all of your money into little jars and keeping track of everything.

Man, oh, man, I’ve tried living like that and I can tell you, it’s no fun. Have you ever tried brining ajar into a Wendy’s? They look at you like you’re crazy.

I think one of the biggest problems I had was that I always wanted the best of everything. I couldn’t just stroll into a mattress store and get a $300 bed. This one time I wandered into a Vancouver mattress store, Simmons Mattress Gallery, and I just couldn’t help myself. I knew I had no income. I knew I probably would be lucky to make $30,000 a year out of art school, but nope, that didn’t stop me. I plopped down $1000 on a brand-new Beautyrest.

That’s probably why I’ve slept so well knowing that I owe something like 50 grand in debt. Great bed, I still have it, but I digress.

I had to stop buying things I couldn’t afford. That’s like Strategy #1.

I had to start paying my bills. Sounds simple, doesn’t it? But I had some kind of mental block when it came to paying bills. I’d just throw them out. What was I thinking? I don’t know. Bad strategy though.

Either way, Full Circle Debt Solutions helped me out – a lot.

My life completely changed. It was as easy as making a phone call.
