Personal Experience In Fighting Debt by Clarence Poe
Clarence Poe editor of Progressive Farmer argues debt can be tackled by frugality. He recalls 7 to 8 cent cotton days, a 100 acre Dixie farm, and his family’s choice to pay as you go. He credits Southern farmers with resilience, cutting time prices, living on homegrown basics, and proving debt can be conquered with discipline.
