  • $10,710???

    That's it? Quit your whining. You couldn't manage to pay your minimum due on that? That's sad. And pathetic. And this article is completely useless. Try living with 30K in debt. I still manage to make my minimum payments. And I didn't have to see a credit counselor to do it. Nor am I 33. I can't believe Salon paid you to write this sham of an article. Oh, woe is me, I paid for too many lattes at Starbucks. Ridiculous.
