How did the black couple with the 5 cars that downsized to 2 do? Remember she was the one that didn't know how to cook and ate out 3 meals a day.

I think she traded two of them in in exchange for the current one she is driving- cheaper payments. I may be wrong, but I think I remember her doing something like that. I don't know where the 3rd one went though. I must've missed that somewhere.

Was anyone surprised that the 3rd couple ended up with more debt? That chic had quite the attitude from the beginning! I felt bad for Glinda!

They did awesome! They sold 2 cars and now have 2 (they had 4 to start) , They eat at HOME now, The wife didn't cut back alot on her weekly hair appointments, but she did skip some and had a friend do some, so she saved about $200 doing that. Big step....she took on another Full time job! They used that income to pay towards the debt. They paid off $50,000 in debt in 1 year! And remember they were on the verge of divorce ...they re-newed their vows. (I was wondering how all that got paid for, but they didn't mention)
