unindebted

Look at me, folks!

unindebted, at long last

I'm one of those rare American creatures: the unindebted!

I was debt-free prior to going unemployed 2.25 years ago, but quickly went "into the red" with unemployment, computer problems, car problems, etc.  Living frugally with a low-net-wage job, though, I still managed to crawl back "into the black".

Eerily, Wells Fargo increased my credit card interest rate, and my available credit is (roughly) equal to my annual income.  I dislike encouraging exponential economics, though, so I'll avoid using the card unless some sort of emergency crops up again.

Excellent!
I'm from a place where being in debt is considered really bad and somewhat immoral even. It's too bad because maybe I should've gone in debt a bit at times to accomplish some things I didn't.

You've done well.
