    A Positive Outlook

    I guess I should'nt rant and rave about whatever plan the courts confirm. My plan may request $800 a month. OUCH! But my positive thinking on this is, without the Bk13 option, I'd probably be paying THAT and much more to the creditors anyway and feeling that I'm not getting anywhere by paying the minimum, with the constant finance charges, and interest rates just building up overtime. So Bk13 is a life saver in the end if one can stick with the plan. You don't have to worry anymore with harrassing phone calls, judgements, liens, garnishments, etc.

    If anyone is to blame, I blame myself for getting into this mess to begin with. Being a gambler, I do blame myself, I'll stop making lame excuses and start taking responsibility.

    Although I admit I want to continue gambling, without the luxury of the credit cards, I think at the same time I'll look into a Gamblers Anonymous program, anyone have any phone numbers to ones in the state of Virginia, hit me up.

    I've only been here a short bit and feel everyone on this site, are extremely supportive of each other, regardless of their faults and how they got into Bk to begin with. And wish to thank them for their continued support!

        GA will change your life (if you let it).

        I've know many people in AA and boy what a difference! It'll take a lot of hard work and commitment, but in the end, it will improve the quality of your life.

        If you think this forum is supportive, wait till you see what you can get from a 12 step program!

        Good luck, I wish you the best!

        (PS: I grew up in Northern VA and my entire family still lives there! I attended Fairfax County Public Schools my entire life and went to GMU)

          ANYONE IN Gamblers Anonymous

          Is anyone in a GA .. what do you all do, what do you all talk about (obviously - gambling) .. what do you do to distract yourselves from thinking about it ? Im curious. Oh by the way, I went to Broad Run Highschool in the mid 80's, but my last year I finished 12th in England. Wondering if you may know my family since you have probably been here as long as me. You can PM if you want

          Thanks, Catchmeifyoucan
