Debt is one of those things that everyone thinks they are an expert about. There is so much mis-information and misunderstanding, and people get so stressed out. It affects your health, relationships, work; everything.”

Married, with a teenage daughter Donald also has a pair of Siberia Huskies he tries to keep up with.
