Was in 60k + debt when I was out of secondary school (most of it was credit card debt so yea hard lesson learn never again). Work my ass off working 7 days a week from 10 to 12hours work days every day. Luckily I live at home so I only pay like $500 to my parents. That lasted like 4 or 5 years. Trust me it wasn't easy basically you have no life coz you work so much and feel so drain. But I paid my debt off.

Manage to save enough to get a pre sale apartment back in 2014 when price was still low. I think I paid 286k in total for a one bedroom with all the tax credits and promos the developers were giving out. Paid it in full when I move in 2017. To be honest I wasn't planning to buy at all in 2014 but my parents basically force me to buy it. In fact they wanted me to get a 2 bedroom unit which was only like 100k to 150k more expensive at that time. But I was scare to shit after my credit card debt and having to get a mortgage I want to avoid. Thinking back if I only I got a 2 bedroom unit I would have made a lot more than I do now and the 2 bedroom apartment could easily last me till I have kids lol.
