Discover – Owed 1k // paid off
Amex – Owed 1K // owe 500
Pandora – Owed 900 // owe 300
Apple – Owed 2k // paid off
Macys – Owed 500 – paid off
Cap1 QS – Owed 600 – paid off
Cap1 QS – Owed 400 – paid off
Target – Owed 400 – paid off
Care Credit – Owed 2000 – paid off
I don’t think I ever want to get back into debt 😭

Caught it before it was too late, I commend you! Good work!
You just got everyone who would give you something? In no way judgemental here. That’s just a ton of cards.
Almost there friend. Any plans to invest the money that was being used to pay credit card debt?
Did you go through a debt program?
Congratulations, that’s awesome!
You’ve done a really good job. After your debt is paid start an emergency fund with six months of expenses. Then start a 401k or Ira for retirement. Use HYSA to keep your emergency fund so you can earn a bit while it sits and grows. Remember what the debt felt like so you can avoid it as much as possible.
Great job! Im about to turn 19 and have $900 racked up as of now i paid a bit off, but its 0 apr till march so im gonna pay it off then save/invest it
