Paying off debt
« on: June 06, 2013, 03:42:49 pm »
I am trying to work on a plan to pay off some of my bills. Has anyone paid off any bills yet with the extra income from FC?

 :wave:

I don't make enough money with fc to pay my bills. But a few dollar more from fc do help.

Yes, but it doesn't help that much the way I spend.

Yeah, I don't really earn enough from FC to pay off bills. But a little extra cash from time to time is nice.

I personally use all the money I make online to as additional payments towards paying off my student loans. Every little bit helps.

I actually try to keep all of my on-line earning for any on-line expenses... So if I want to purchase some "golden" membership on some other program, I don't have to go into my "normal" bank account to get the money. But every once in awhile if I'm low on funds in my normal bank account, I'll transfer some money from PayPal to my bank account and use it to pay at least a portion of by bills.

It sure is nice to make extra money, especially without having a boss.

I used to counsel my financial clients in the ways of debt reduction and a practice that seemed to work really well. I would have them make three columns one marked creditor, one marked balance and one marked payment. I would have them make the minimum payment on all debts except their smallest and concentrate on paying off the smallest bill first. Instead of resting easy after paying off the smallest I would have them apply what they normally would have been paying to their now paid off smallest bill to the next smallest bill and continue in this manner until they had all of theirbills paid off. I had several clients that did this and were able to pay their bills off within two years!

Life almost all before me I don't make enough on FC to pay off any bills. I only make $25.00 every two to three months. After I accumulate $50.00, $75.00 or $100.00 it may go towards a bill.
