I have always advocated doing everything possible to pay off credit card balances; it's good financial management and the ticket to a strong FICO credit score. ↗

I wanted to be involved in music and I felt I needed to get in quick. I didn't want to spend four years in college and then hope for the best. I gave myself a year, which is why I kept pushing people for a chance. I literally felt my whole life was in the balance. Music was my life, and I was scared of having time pass by and missing my chance. ↗
