Hello, I am new to the community, I am a mother of three who works fulltime and goes to school, a class here and there, not going for accredited classes. My children are 25, 18 and 5. My 18 and younger one are still at home and the older one is going to graduate this year and be on her way to college next year.
My 25 year old is well on his own and doing fine, he went straight to work in the oil industry, the business is booming around here. He has always been the laborer of the family, only man in the house.
I will be using your great knowledge here for financial add and getting her off on the right foot. I have read some really good posts here, some people actually are dealing with what I am now too. Good to have things in common, we can all help each other.
I also have some debt issues that I need to deal with, nothing major, but they need a dealing, so I thought this would be a good place to start.
I am hoping to be a participating member of this community and gain lots of knowledge but also contribute as much as I can.
glad to be here.

Thank you for the welcome ladybug, I am a member of the credit forum, fairly new there too. I seen the debt forum referenced to several times on the credit forum, especially for the payday loan questions.
I look forward to being here and participating as much as I can on this forum.
I don't have a lot of debt but enough to want to learn what is going on out there in the big world, seems like the people here are genuine and enjoy helping one another, it is good to come here and see that people are not alone when they are at their lowest point.
What a wonderful place, glad I found it.

thank you for the welcome cannr,
This seems like a good place to come and get some really good advice, I am a member of the credit forum and found the debt forum through it. I spent some time here reading before I joined. There is a lot of very useful discussions going on here, I see there are a lot of members, that is awesome. Nothing like getting the information first hand from some one who has been through it themselves.
I am learning a lot here, again thank you for the welcome! Glad to be here.

Thanks erb,
good to see you here too, this is a lot like the credit forum, just the opposite side of it, but they have a lot in common.
I should have come here a long time ago, but I am a believer in better late than never, LOL. Hopefully, I can help out here some and get to know people here like on the credit forum. So I guess I will be seeing you around on both, lol. later.
