So long story short, I'm a fool, an idiot, etc. But that's okay, we learn from our mistakes.
Now disclaimer before I start: I still operate the business that I purchased a month or two ago, and I still own 100% of it, and it's worth a lot more than the sum of my debts. My problem right now is lack of cash and high consumer debt. I could theoretically just sell the business and pay off the debt and still have plenty of money left over but that would be easy. And I deserve to suffer for my own stupidity. :smash:
Anyway, I owe a lot of money to a lot of people (mainly the wonderful credit card company). I have .22c in cash reserves at present, I owe roughly 45,000x that. (if my math is correct). Basically $10k to various people, institutions, and the like.
Why do I owe this money? Well, girls would be a large part of this. (as some of you know, I've only recently garnered to self esteem neccesary for this). Also a concert that I decided to fly myself and a friend out to see. We got to meet the artist, travelled by air then limo, etc. It was a great time and I wouldn't take it back but it was irresponsible and stupid of me. On the bright side, it gave me a taste of what the future can look like if I smarten up.
Anyway, By January 1st I will completely pay off this nonsense using only my .22c and some creativity and hard work (I can take a screen shot of my bank accounts to prove my .22c total across 6 accounts LOL.)
I can't use money from the biz, I can however use job/contract money and/or money from any new ventures that I start in that time.
This is just a small setback. I used to get super depressed over every little thing, but nowadays it doesn't really bother me. I can do this, and life goes on. Not the end of the world, etc.
