Financially challenged local woman, Anna Gibbs, has realised it’s time to curb her over spending and finally do something about her looming credit card debt.
Startled into action by yet another overdrawn account notice, Anna decided to get another job and put a stop to her impulse buying once and for all.
Unfortunately for Anna, her new cash in hand hospitality role has resulted in her spending even more than usual, as she can’t see the numbers dwindling from her bank account.
“I used to just never log in to my account because I didn’t want to see the damage,” admits Anna.
“But now the numbers are finally back in the green!”
“I’m doing so well I might just quit my other job and keep this one instead.”
Though it took some adjusting to, Anna has reportedly stopped using her credit card in the real world and relies solely on cash.
But due to the improvement in her digital bank account, Anna has taken up online shopping again.
“I mean, I said I wouldn’t touch my credit card,” says Anna.
“But I didn’t realise my computer had remembered all of my details.”
“So technically I haven’t used it.”
Anna now has $2,000 in her savings account but is reportedly $3,767 in debt.
However, she has managed to stave off the dreaded red numbers by upping her credit card limit.
“I’ve joined some boss babe groups on Facebook”, declares Anna proudly.
“With all this new money coming in I should probably find something to invest in.”
“I’m thinking of spending my savings on this three day financial growth workshop. Apparently I can triple my income in just a few short steps.”
More to come.
