Yes, a cautionary tale would be good. It's just the way you phrased it that was bugging me.
Also, I was not gunning for pity, nor was OP, true. Still, in such moments kind strangers on the internet who wish you well still feel good I believe.
Thanks for clearing it up!
A cautionary tail could do a lot of good here.
Why not let something good come out of the discussion that could prevent others from ending up in this situation?
A postmortem of sorts.
I could have ended up like this guy, but I found personal finance religion when I was 28. After making six figures for six years all I had was monthly payments equal to my paycheck and not much to show for it.
It’s pathetic how many people here leap to pity. The OP wasn’t asking for it.
