My Debt Reduction Blog

Please forgive this majorly off-topic post, but I don’t want to start another website to showcase additional turmoil in my life. There are a few reasons why this website has seen so much neglect over the past few months, but the major reason has been the fact that my marriage has been on the brink [...]

It’s been a rough couple of works for me, hence the lack of posting. The issues are not financial related so they won’t be shared here. I’m hoping to get over this hump soon, so I can get back in to my groove.
