The Tools...Part I

Ok, you're on your way to visit your mother and you've got a 4 hour road trip ahead of you. About an hour into it, just when you think all is good and you are on your way...POP...flat tire. You pull over to the side of the road and assess the situation. It's not good, you're an hour outside of town, no cars passing by and you're alone. So, you start pulling out all the tools available to you to try to fix the tire. To change the flat tire, you need:



To change the flat tire, you need:

  • Lug nut wrench
  • A two-foot sturdy metal pipe that fits in the handle of your wrench
  • At least a hydraulic cylindrical/floor jack
  • A flat head screwdriver
  • Early warning device
  • Wheel chock
  • Penetrating lube (WD-40)
  • Inflated spare tire


    There are a few things on this list that you could probably do without, but it makes the whole process a lot easier and quicker if you use all the tools available to you. In no time you've fixed your tire and you're on the road again!

    Do you Jenga?

    Remember Jenga? The game that consists of stacking 54 wooden blocks, then pulling out the blocks in a way so that the whole tower doesn't come crashing down.  Seems simple, but it's all about support!  We are constantly playing Jenga with our life and credit card debt can be the tipping point at the top of the Jenga stack.  It can make the tower unstable, so if the wrong piece (your job, your spouse, your stock account, etc) is taken away, it will cause the whole thing to tumble down.  When a life altering event happens, it's a game changer. For example, if a spouse loses their job, the added stress of worrying what to do with the credit card bills on top of paying the mortgage, the car and food is daunting.  This is why it is so important to build your remove the things in your life that aren't providing a good support.



    Cambridge Life Solutions is the support.  We add blocks to your Jenga stack by providing you with the tools and resources your need to eliminate your credit card debt and build the strong foundation you deserve...so you can live The CamLife.

    Our favorite client comment comes from Jenny.  She says:


    "Hi, My name is Jenny... I recently made a call to inquire about your program and I am Happy to say after speaking with David my husband and I have qualified for the Program....
    Thank you just does not seem enough!!! … 

    David was compassionate, understanding and completely thorough. He explained everything and made sure!!! I understood the whole program step by step. When he explained the cons, I was pleasantly surprised. I did not want to keep open any of the accounts, and was happy to close them for good; we never want to get back there again. So I thought that was a Pro. Then he explained about the negative effect on our credit until we had finished the program. I thought this was a Pro as well!!! We have to work at getting our credit back, and it’s not affecting my equity in my home, we are saving more so the time affecting our credit is up to us and how fast we can pay it off, but still be able to breathe. I can not express enough, how much David helped us, with emails and phone calls, anytime it was never a problem. He always had an answer or suggestion of what we could and should do. 

    David … was professional , friendly and understanding. As I said before, Thank you just does not seem enough, He helped me out of denial and on the road to bankruptcy and back into a position of control and PEACE!!!! 

    Please would you “Personally “Thank him from my Husband and myself. David …and Cambridge Life Solutions has not only helped us but my two children as well, that means the world. So thank you to all at Cambridge Life Solutuions and David … for helping my family get back on Track and on the way to financial relief. 

    Kind Regards, Jenny…"
