How I Paid Off $27,000 in Credit Card Debt in Two Years
By Dana Burgess, as told to Gabrielle KarolI live in Graham, Texas, with my husband and three children, who are 17, 14 and 9 years old. I work full-time at a public school as an "intervention" teacher, helping kids who need an extra push academically with reading and math.

"But what I find is he's hypocritical with saying the, you know, the one percent don't get us, and, you know, he's a multimillionaire now, you know, they're not paying their fair share of taxes, now I'm going over to George Clooney's house to get money from millionaires and billionaires, and he collected $15 million, and, you know, "Wall Street are the bad guys, but now I have to go to a dinner with Wall Street people to get money for my campaign."
