M23 Drowned in Debt.
How was everyone's journey for being debt free? I am aiming to settle my debts this year. 100k+ debt wasn't a joke amount, especially as minimum wage earner. Things are getting out of hand, and my mental health keeps worsening. I feel hopeless but I'm also trying to pick myself up to be debt free even by 50% or even 100% this year. I've been trying to apply for new job but I just keep receing zero to none response. The current economic situation and the pressure as the eldest was a main factor why I ended up to this situation and so the bad finance decisions that I fully take accountable of. The thoight of ending it keeps lingering into my mind but then I also remind myself that my life doesn't equate with my debts. I keep hoping and praying na sana makasecure ako ng freelance gigs that would help me out to settle these.
Just getting this off my chest while waiting to clock out, sobrang lala ng labor condition sa bansa natin. Sana wala nang "provincial rate" sa susunod. Sana magkaroon ng Living Wage sa pinas. Sa isip ko ngayon, a year or 2 from now, I'll be fully debt free at sumasahod ng tama.
Sana lahat makaalis na tayo sa ganitong uri ng sistema.
