I'm in debt by quite a bit, and on my regular income right now it would take a while to pay off. But I have other choices, I could get a part-time job at a store or something. Although, seeing as school will start soon (2-3 weeks) for me, I'm not sure if applying for a job right now would even be worth it, by the time they get back to me it could be the start of school. I don't want work to affect my grades or take up my whole weekends, it wouldn't be worth it in the long run. Plus if I decide to apply for a job I will have to give up something I enjoy. Now my question here is, I can apply for a job and get out of debt sooner rather than later and I would end up having a little extra spending money on the side, but I would be giving up something important to me and I would be risking my grades. Or I can just pay off my debt with the small income I have right now and be done with it after a loooooooooooooooong time, but I would have more time to keep my grades high and I wouldn't have to give up anything. Your thoughts please? Thanks
Also, if I get a job I would be out of debt within, I'd say 2 months tops. But without the job I would guess anywhere between 9-12 months
