The journey begins

[ClingingToHope]

Thanks everyone. I considered skipping my Financial Peace University Class, but in the end I decided to go.

I was doodling during and started writing down how much a month I'm spending on loans and such.

There's $129 per check on a 401(k) loan. There's $140 per check to pay for my car and the last bit of legal retainer. Of course, there's the $105 per check in credit card INTEREST, the minimum for those two cards is $200 per check.

So why am I fighting W so hard, $469 of my check is gone every two weeks and she's getting $460 and wants an additional $100.

The problem here is not so much the D -- but the bad decisions I let happen leading up to it.

If I could wave a magic wand and rid myself of those debts it wouldn't matter what would happen today or in the future. I'd be OK.

Still, I hope that I don't nailed with daycare as well. I'd like to maintain my current state until I know what the financial settlement will be.

On a side note. I hear everyone on the nightclub scene. I'm probably only going to have one free night out of the next three so it's not as if it's controlling me right now.
