Tonight I finally did something I’ve been putting off for a long time.

I told my partner about my debts.

I’ve been carrying the stress, worry and embarrassment on my own, trying to sort everything out without anyone knowing.

I’m a dad of two, I work incredibly hard, earn good money, yet somehow ended up in a financial mess.

It wasn’t an easy conversation, but it needed to happen.

I’ve made mistakes with money, and I’m taking responsibility for them.

No more hiding. No more pretending everything is fine.

Time to get these debts cleared and build a better future for my family.

One day at a time. ❤️

@connorenglish21 @BoucheBagDFS Thank you mate appreciate the words

I’ve got myself into 30 grands worth of debt

I’ve been in debt for a long time now

I have wife and kids who know nothing of this and I’m starting to feel very depressed

I earn very good money, but most of my spare money now goes on repayment to loans and paying my bills

Has anyone ever been in this position before?

Think I need some help

@baileyinvests That’s amazing

Manchester Lapland… nearly £1,000 for a couple of hours. Anyone that’s been previously, would you say it’s worth the money? Think I might have to go to see. Mental you could probably go to the real Lapland for a little more

I’ve taken on extra work

Every day of the week I can grab some extra money I’m going to do it

Does anyone else believe that even micro payments towards large debts can make you feel better?

I earn a good wage. I work full-time and take on extra work.

I’m also a dad of two young children, aged 3 and 1.

Yet despite earning decent money, I’ve still found myself in debt.

That’s something people don’t talk about enough.

You can earn £40k, £50k or even £60k a year and still struggle financially.

I’m on a mission to clear my debt, build savings and give my family a better future.

I’ll be sharing my real income, debt repayments, financial mistakes and progress along the way.

Anyone else earning good money but still trying to get out of debt? 💷

@BoucheBagDFS Running a business and funding it myself, then couldn’t afford to keep funding it so started to take loans to help with cash flow

£30k worth of debt but I still have this in my trading 212 account

If you was me, would you sell all of this and pay it on your debts?
