Lets see.
She decided to become freelance i.e. to run her own business.
Owns a buy to let property.
Has so many debts that she could not service them for more than a month without being paid. As a freelance IT consultant she should expect longer payment gaps than that even if she isn't out of work.

Refuses to sell the buy to let property even though it would release money to service the debts a bit longer.
Complains that she cannot get legal aid to sue her "former employer" for "sex discrimination" as she has too many assets.

earlier
To buy the restaurant, my husband and I had to re-mortgage the family home and my two small buy-to-let properties.

I also notice
"Kensington Mortgages"
This is a sub prime lender and it implies that the debt problems didn't start suddenly.

I have sympathy for her making the mistake of becomming freelance but no sympathy for the situation she is in now.

I'm wondering how much of the truth is included in this debt diary. Presumably she is getting paid for it which shows a bit more sense than she has shown in her other financial dealings.

Get the feeling she hasn't yet really come to terms with her situation and doesn't seem to realise that a lot of her problems are of her own making.

But without problems Life is meaningless! More problems - more interesting Life is!

Your fault on both counts...

My debts are not a result of going on spending sprees and exotic holidays. Instead, I and my husband have borrowed to finance our future.

You still borrowed, and tried to control wealth where you had none. What you sepend it on is irrelevent. There are not pound notes with Vacation written on them and others with mortgage written on them, it is the same pound note. The fact that you conceive of a difference is the root of your problem.

That's the first two lines, I can't read anymore.

Oh!
102 years ago, exactly on the 15th July night,
A. Chekhov was dying! He was in Baden-Baden resort (with his wife), which was his last hope.
Again, his last wish was to drink the champagne. He drank it and said (it was his the last words): Ich sterbe!
Ich sterbe means I'm dying. And right after these his last words (as his wife remembered) the cork of the bottle

Ah! Sorry again!
Equally I can't imagine my childhood without M. Twain and J. London's books.
These writers were idols for Russians for abt. 100 years! Now their idols are:
Hubba Bubba, expensive cars, boutiques, jakusees, porno DVDs and so on.
