What People Say

I want you to know how much I appreciate the blog. I can’t put it into words, but my heart knows that I am forever indebted to you for seeing me through my darkest days. At that very moment I was really hopeless and helpless, upon reading some of your advice to other people that you barely know and how you encourage them; I felt a relief.

Dear Debt Reader

I get emails pretty regularly from people thanking me for the post, saying that it helped them, and so I wanted to thank YOU for spurring me on to write it. I wouldn’t have done that without your tour.
