Credit Cards

When I was at Michigan, I was that typical college student that they talk about being irresponsible with credit cards.  I know that to some people that might be a shock because I tend to be a relatively responsible person.  But I was away from home and it was really easy to rack up the bills on the credit card and just pay the minimums every month (if that). 

So I looked at my situation seriously over the summer and came up with a plan of action.  I was going to pay off the credit card with the smaller balance and then work on paying off the card with the larger balance.  Whenever I have extra money, it goes to the credit cards.  I already have student loan debt so I'd rather not have any credit card debt when I'm done with law school...So if you are wondering how I am paying these things off, it's with the loans that I took out, I am going to have to pay back the loans no matter what I use it for, so I could either go buy a ton of new clothes or I could pay off the new clothes I bought it college!  I decided on the latter...

The whole purpose of this post is because I paid off COMPLETELY one of my cards today!  I feel so accomplished and so much less stressed!!  I cannot wait until the other one is completely paid off and I don't have that hanging over my head!  

Anyway...back to reading about contracts...
