have reached the end of trying hard and so I am here asking for help. My husband and I have a really big mortgage of 385,000.00, we scrimp and save and yet we barely have enough . It is so bad we have not seen our parents in over 4 years becuase we cannot afford our flights and sometimes, when he is working away I live off of tuna and mineral water for 3 weeks at a time. The job I have is only casual, and I feel that this big debt has started to put a strain on my marriage, something which would devestate me and my husband... It is not easy and I do not want to live my life just living it to pay my mortage off. I miss my mum and dad, and I have not bought clothes for 6 years, because whatever money comes in goes to the mortgage, or for bills like insurance, or healthcare... I have started to become depressed and down and some might say I am a fool but someone out there i know will help....
