When the statements piled up and the creditors started calling, I had to do the unthinkable -- confront my mounting debt.

    Look, Strawberry, there is no point in seeing people who haven't made mistakes with credit as the enemy.

    The enemy is THE BANKS, with their smarmy enticements, manipulations and outrageous cost structures.

    It is up to each one of us to resist all this, to whatever extent we are able to -- it is critical to a life lived well. (Ha, I just remembered a credit card ad slogan that I believe used those very words: "Live well." Yeah, right!!!)
