Lookback: 1 year and a half

ran out of money to fix my living situation

I stopped paying my debts to fix my house, now I'm in collections and one of my cars was repoed

What I wish I knew
"I should have prioritized my debts over fixing my house"
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't stop paying your debts, even if you're struggling"
