Middle Class and Poor

Gary & Brenda - Ontario South West Region

Gary and Brenda are in their mid-40s and have three children. They live in a modest home, but despite Gary's steady income as a police detective and Brenda's part-time bookkeeping job, they were having trouble paying their bills. They didn't have any credit card debt, but they had more debt than assets - a common situation amongst Canadians. When they joined the Paladin Program, our clients couldn't buy the clothes that they needed without upsetting the family budget.

Sharon took to the Paladin budgeting program like a true accountant. She quickly learned to keep track of every nickel and dime in the household and with our help they managed to substantially cut down on their expenses while restructuring their debt. They have since renovated their home, bought newer cars and are putting away money every month.
