The stubbornness in this thread is the exact reason why it works.
When you deal with someone who has resolved themselves to never be out of debt, it’s real tough to convince them to make a payment that will only go to interest and penalties.
The first step is to save $1000. If someone gets there and can pay cash to fix a flat tire rather than take out a payday loan or take on an overdraft fee, then it’s already worked.
Baby steps, not functioning adult steps.
