Does your debt make you feel like you’re trapped in quicksand?
Does being in debt feel like being stuck in quicksand… pulling you down further and further?
Quicksand is basically just ordinary sand that has been so saturated with water that the friction between sand particles is reduced. The resulting sand is a mushy mixture of sand and water that can no longer support any weight and can trap you.
Debt can feel like it works the same way. Once you are in, the more you struggle against it, the further you seem to sink.
