Two dogs.
Two dogs, little social security and some from my business and credit cards.
I managed to get into a situation.
I borrowed money from a personal loan, an online personal loan company, nationally advertised, all that kind of good stuff.
Went through the whole process because I wanted to pay off some debt, you know, to get rid of my credit cards and to invest in a vehicle for my mobile salon.
And managed to find out that the interest rate is somewhere around 48%.
Oh, my goodness.
And it's front-loaded.
I mean, I heard the 48%, but I thought, that's no big deal because I'm going to pay this off very quickly.
And so I didn't pay attention enough to hear that it's front-loaded.
So the amount of money that I borrowed— Most of your payments are going to interest, essentially, not touching the principal.
Half and half is what it is.
I ran a thing this morning.
The half and half is going to principal.
How much was the loan?
For $29,000.
Within a year.
Within a year.
Yeah, well, like I said, I'm kind of ridiculously stupid at this particular point.
I'm not here to bash you.
