    Debt Dumpers - 2017

    Paid off the flooring (for a house that I don't even live in anymore :furious:) but at least it's done! One year down on my loan, two to go. Will pay that off early when it gets closer to the end. Have not been spending frivolously because I bought my own place a year ago! :daisy:

    college kids who come home every weekend

    When I went to school (years ago) it was a "suitcase college" where just about everyone went home on the weekends. I guess a lot of kids were from surrounding areas and for whatever reason, they did go home. I had a job back home and lived less than an hour from my school, so it made perfect...

    Lien on our house for an unknown debt.

    I remember when dh and I bought our home...the papers he had to sign off indicating the debts were not his. He has a common name that could be one of multiple races. One debt was over 2 million! No way that was his! Scary all the same.
