For me, it was an intense need to find some people who would SUPPORT my interest in YMOYL and seeking to get out of debt. The message I was getting loud and clear from everyone IRL was to not worry so much about it and that debt is a fact of life. Up until our new house purchase we were debt free for 3 years. (We did finance our appliances on 0% for 2 years, but I'm not thrilled about that. All the rest of our remodel has been cash.)
I found that here. How about you? What drew you into this community?
