Never be in debt

I used to think that being in debt was the worst thing and that saving and paying my own way was the only way to go – I was so proud that I owned my car outright and planned to do the same with everything. I still believe that, fundamentally, but what it means is that I go without now and am still unable to save, and then I am unable to do the things I need/want to do. So, I have a plan to enable my own autonomy…and it involves a bit of debt to help me out of the hole I’m in. I’m beginning to see that it’s worth it. Because saving is optional but paying a debt off isn’t, so it’s much more likely to be accomplished that way round.
