Lies My Credit Card Company Told Me

"You have an excellent payment history with us, Mr. Schwartz."

that's what i was going to say. my bank keeps trying to give me money. I owe them, you know, a few *thousand* dollars (although not on credit cards, phew, only a bit there ;), don't own anything but my shoes and my bed, and yet! They think I'm awesome. Apparently they don't remember those letter of suing I got in my early twenties ;)

The fun part is, once I get the credit card paid off again, I can start on my student loans!

Yay money!

It's a vicious cycle!

Sayeth the girl off to rack up MORE student loans. Gah.

That's what's so depressing, to me: I went through all this, with the credit cards AND the loans, and I got them all paid off, and then I moved to Chicago and racked up CC debt again and went back for my Master's.

I will NOT be pursuing a PhD.
