Lookback: 2 years

Moved to new city without savings plan

I accumulated $10K in credit card debt and paid it off in 2 years through strict budgeting and side jobs

What I wish I knew
"I wish I had a savings plan and understood credit before moving to a new city"
If I could tell you one thing
"Create a savings plan and educate yourself on personal finance before making big decisions"
