Still working on this but I’m enjoying cooking a lot more now. I actually WANT to cook now and am always looking for cool cookbooks.

Such a relief!

I accomplished this back in April 2007. It was such a weight off my shoulders to be debt-free! I had continual debt since I was 18, with a balance of upwards 11k total. That was a lot for someone my age and I really don’t know how/when it got that far out of control. But when you’re young and you can’t afford to make payments, CC’s will royally screw you with interest and late fees.
I honestly believe that we should just do away with credit card companies all together. The whole concept of “building up credit” is ridiculous. And once your debt is paid off, if your credit card is open and remains idle, you get penalized. If you don’t have enough active credit cards, lenders don’t want to lend you as much money. So banks are forcing you to continually keep debt, hoping you screw up, so they can make more money. It’s a vicious cycle…

I switched to Mac in 1999 when I had to get a new computer for college. My b/f was such a Mac nerd he taught me all the cool features/shortcuts, which made the transition much easier.
To this day, it boggles the mind why and how people still use Windoze. Macs are much more intuitive and simpler to understand. Troubleshooting is a breeze and my Mac never freezes.
I know some people argue that Macs are pricier. But I’m the type of person who prefers quality and will pay extra for it. I have never had problems with my Macs (I have 4)and I like having the security (and I don’t need to worry about viruses corrupting my files or hardrive). That enough saves me time and money in the longrun.
