  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

1 in 4 households earning over $100,000 a year live paycheck to paycheck--not because they can't make ends meet, but because their money management sucks. A high income has very little relationship with responsible borrowing, despite what many would assume.

If you stop paying your car or home loan it gets repossessed, people with bad money management still have incentives to pay those on time.
