Save yourself; Don’t wait for someone to save you
A woman thought her fiance would be okay if she used him as a reference for all her credit relationships. On top of not talking to him about it, she was up to her knees in debt.
She was so in debt that her creditors called her reference (aka her finance).
He wasn’t happy when he found out, so he broke off the engagement.
Why did she think her fiance would save her?
Why would she not feel responsible and independent enough to handle her financial affairs?
One of the worst decisions you can make as a female is relinquishing your financial independence in exchange for a financial savior.
Avoid it at all costs.
Save yourself and care for your financial affairs.
