It will take some time, but eventually we will be debt free. Unfortunately, my husband is one of those people who sees something and has to have it there and then. I've been really trying to get through to him, but nothing seems to be working.
I've tried the scare tactic (by showing him how far in debt we really are), but he instead goes out and spends even more money (like he's in denial...oh dear). I've tried reverse psych by pretending its not that bad, but that doesn't work either.
I've tried making him responsible by getting him to look after bills, but he'll skip payments so that he can buy what he wants instead. I've tried taking control of all the money and giving him an "allowance", but he then borrows money off friends, so we end up having to pay them back!
ARRGGGH! If anyone has any advice or has been in a similar situation your thoughts would be appreciated!
