Beyond finance, I love:

Welcome to My Financial Journey
The Debt Spiral & My Wake-Up Call
During my college years, I fell into the trap of impulse shopping and consumer debt. Credit cards made spending easy, but paying them off was a nightmare. I learned the hard way how financial mismanagement can lead to overwhelming stress.
Through trial and error, I discovered essential money management strategies, including:
- The power of saving instead of borrowing.
- How to prioritize and pay off debt strategically.
- The importance of earning extra income to speed up financial recovery.
I worked extra hours, cut unnecessary expenses, and even took on online marketing jobs to pay off my debts faster. I also used a low-balance transfer strategy to consolidate debt, reducing interest costs.
Lessons I Learned from My Financial Struggles
- Set Clear Priorities – Pay off high-interest debts first.
- Avoid the Debt Trap – Minimum payments keep you in debt longer.
- Earn More, Spend Less – Look for side hustles and reduce expenses.
- Leverage Available Resources – Use balance transfers, savings plans, and budgeting tools.
- Financial Knowledge is Power – The more you know, the better choices you make.
