Fortunately I was single and lived as a roommate with someone with a disability in exchanged for free rent as long as I keep watch throughout the night and assist the person most weekend with shopping, cleaning, driving them around.
It was hard but after 5-6 years, I finally did it! I am now debt free except for the mortgage and partial auto loan but absolutely no credit card or personal loans.
Because of my experience, I hold on to my money and clutch my purse strap at all times. I also have my life back again to the point where I can sleep at night again and enjoy hanging out with my husband.
