I am sure you will get out of this debt mess. It may take a tremendous amount of hardship to get out. At the same time, you have learned to be responsible. You care about your employees, you care about repaying your lendors/creditor. You are learning what it means to be cash flow positive. You do not try to commit fraud. You do not spend lavishly. I do not know if it was truly "Casey Serin" or an imposter who commented that you should get a blue ball, get $million complex and cash back on CC. The fact that you ignore those "advice" is a tremdous tribute. Think of it as the Devil trying to lead you astray and you ignored him. That being said, you still have a long way to go. Stay true to yourself. Once you turn this situation around, you'll gain a lot more than you realize right now. Bravo!! I am sure you will get out of this debt mess.

I haven't thought about buying a 100+ unit complex...I'm trying to avoid major (and minor) purchases at the moment. lol...as for the Gas station tip. I think my time is better used trying to increase my business income at the moment, rather than this strange gas idea. Creative though, but not for me. I'll post a picture eventually. Thanks! Casey,

You really should get some cash back and max those out by getting cash back. One idea for the Chevron card. Hang out at gas stations and offer to fill up someone's tank for $20. Just get their cash and use your card. It's really win win since you aren't going to pay the bill anyway. You can use these ideas for sweet deals. I have a lot more ideas like that so email me. Maybe we can trade business cards and be business partners. Also, my wife Galina wants to know if you have a picture. I also notice that all of your credit cards aren’t maxed.

This could give you $10,000 a month in passive income. You really need to make more sweet deals, not less as you need cash in the pipeline. Also, try juicing for stress relief. And remember stay positive. Ignore the haters. Have you thought about buying a 100+ unit apartment complex? This could give you $10,000 a month in passive income.

As for more details as to how I got to this point...I am trying to look forward, and not back. I have a counselor if I really want to look back at things. This blog is more just to remind me of my goals and keep track of stuff, not make myself super depressed. Thanks for the image suggestion, I'm not super tech savvy, but I'll look into that. Thanks!

Could you post more details other than the one paragraph in the about section? You should convert your debt spreadsheet (sins.bmp) into jpg, gif or png. It's close to a meg in size and if your traffic goes up, that's going to be a drag on your bandwidth. Also, it would be more efficient to make a thumbnail instead of the full-sized image on each page of your blog. I'm not a big fan of equating debts with "sins."

Lots of catch up work to do this weekend. Ran my #'s income wise again, will be at around 9K next month. Still 4K Short. Gotta sell more...(and reduce outflow) Lou, you're probably right. I probably won't make it. But I'd be a real tragedy if I didn't at least try, so that is what I'm doing. I got myself into this mess. Gotta see if I can make it out... i’ll have to look into that blue ball…

No, you still won't make it, but I give you props for working to generate some income. It would be great if a certain person in Sacramento did the same. Sorry, I wish I could edit my prior remark.
