Thanks for pointing out the true cost of debt and just how negative it can be in our lives if we let our money control us instead of being in control of our money. I just read a great book called "Wired For Wealth" that was published last year that I think would be helpful for anyone who is struggling financially and needs help. I found the book really insightful in making me think hard about what I believe about money. Often people who go into deep debt have detrimental beliefs about money, and by reading this book I think they will find some guidance in how to change their money mindset. .-= Pam´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Pennysaverblog/~3/V5jM2k9By98/" rel="nofollow">Save Money On Your Taxes– Use A Spousal RRSP</a> =-.

Because borrowing from friends and family is a recipe for problems, doing so should be avoided. But once the personal loan is there and not being paid, the relationship will definitely be strained.

We all know how difficult it can be to say "no" to a friend in need. What if you find yourself unable to repay your debts to friends or family? Being in debt can also cause unnecessary strain in the relationships of those who we care about the most.
