You will be able to pay him down faster once you get the credit card paid off with the added benefit of not adding interest to the debt every month. If you feel like you need to pay him something, make a small $100 payment.Chellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11483632903669245656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8465887551310827456.post-29600442074498329682012-06-13T18:43:55.941-04:002012-06-13T18:43:55.941-04:00We may do a combination.

Please don't let them get to you. Lately my dad has been getting rude with his comments to me (my weight mainly, even though I have lost 24 of the 38 lbs I gained with my last pregnancy) and frankly if he continues I will stop seeing him. I don't have the tolerance to let someone put me down no matter who you are.<br />As for the debt can you do both? I did the math based on what's posted and you could pay off both dentists and still have a little over $800 to put towards the CCs.Jesse R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10858758776135918589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8465887551310827456.post-77662418673537601482012-06-13T09:34:26.207-04:002012-06-13T09:34:26.207-04:00Sounds like a ton going on for you, I hope that is...Sounds like a ton going on for you, I hope that is calms down soon or that you at least find little islands of calm within it.
