What would /biz/ do in my shoes?
Currently $10,000 in credit card debt. I do make more than the minimum monthly payment but can't seem to get ahead and get that shit payed down.
I will be receiving roughly $17,000 as part of a settlement.
Should I pay off the debt in one go and get these fucking cunts off my back or use the cash and put a down payment down on a house?
Keep in mind that I live in a city where the average house price is $300,000 and even for that kind of cash you really get fuck all.

Pay debts, you idiot.
OP here. The consensus seems to be paying off the debt, this is what I was leaning towards.
Would it be best to pay the whole debt off in one go or pay off 85-90% of it and use the remaining towards a down payment?
Thanks for the advice thus far.

Please pay it off in one go.
Maybe invest the rest if you can.
OP again.
I like the sound of paying off the entire debt in one go, have been stuck in this rutt for years and look forward to the day I can pay these bank fucks and move on.
Thanks for the advice /biz/, watch for my next thread "How to not invest $7000 like a retard".

Pay 50% of it, put other 50% into LEPEN, then use profits from that to pay off the other half and buy a house.
