Dear Money Lady,  I’m embarrassed to admit this, but I don’t know what to do.  I have about $63,000 in credit card debt that I have been trying to pay off for over 2 years.  Some of this is school debt, but mainly it’s just debt from everyday living.  I just finished my university degree, but I hardly earn enough to pay rent and food every month.  A friend said I should declare bankruptcy, but my parents think that I should keep trying to pay it off.  I’m not a bad person, but I feel ashamed and overwhelmed.  Help!  Jen P.
