Ahh... I remember my woes of over 20 years ago. No money. Car repairs weekly costing more than I earned. I tried to eat for $1 a day. Lots of fish sticks, canned spinach and refried beans.
But you know what? Things change. It will seem like a distant memory one day. The thing is they change gradually, you won't likely notice it happen.
You will get a better job, a break here and there. You'll advance yourself.

When it was happening to me, I couldn't even figure how I was going to get out of it. I couldn't fathom how I was going to own a home, or rent an apartment no less. Now, I have a home with no mortgage, and am debt free.
It didn't just fall in my lap, it took discipline.

You are what we call: Payin' your dues.

Hang in there, don't abuse credit and work hard. It will all be in the past one day.
