Today I made a MONSTER PAYMENT to the credit card. I made a business decision a few weeks ago that I should return what Mary Kay products I could to Corporate for repurchase. I made this decision for the following reasons:
1. I had not been working that business since beginning as a test proctor.
2. I could not work BOTH as a test proctor and as a Mary Kay consultant (too much time).
3. I was making more money at my test proctoring than I had been as a MK consultant.
4. If I wasn't selling what I had in my inventory, I didn't want that product to go to waste.
It made sense to send back what I was able to send back, and put that money to good use paying off debt.
Having done so, I am now just a few hundred dollars away from PAYING OFF, and CLOSING this account!!!
My next test proctoring paycheck should cover this...so, that debt WILL BE PAID OFF BEFORE OCTOBER!!!!
Yeah!!
I am a wife and mother living in a one-career household. I have begun making decisions to take control of our financial future (including taking on small jobs that fit into my life and using the $ earned to pay off bills). One of the things that is keeping me focused and motivated is posting my progress on this blog and sharing what I am learning along the way.
