Year wrap-up
Been extremely inactive due to life but now have time to catch up
2017 was bad financially. I lost my job due to not having transportation (my car I bought for cheap ended up dying. The car dealer I bought it from offered to take it back and it didn't ding against my credit)
My boyfriend lost his job for a month but was able to get another job making $40,000 more a year. We now have a lot more money to play with. We been catching up on credit card bills and other bills to help with the dings on our credit reports.
My goal is to close my
Amazon card after tax season cause the APR is so high on it that it eats a chunk of the payment that I put towards it.
I also had surgery to get my tonsils out and my son had surgery two weeks later to get ear tubes in his ear. While my surgery was completly covered, we were stuck with a $2,000 bill as the Anesthesiologist that was there for my son was out of network for my insurance . I wish the surgery center would of scheduled his procedure to have someone there that was accepted by insurance.
Here's to finally starting a savings account next year.
