its a long story so i will try to keep it brief...
i work for a finance company that used to lend money. we have ceased lending but are still collecting.
my best friend has a loan with my company and is being charged high interest.
as she is saving every penny she has to be able to come to my wedding in antigua, i thought i would help her out by getting a 0% credit card for her and transfer the balance.
because i work for the company and used my credit card to pay off the loan, i am now at risk of losing my job and/or my bonus.
the thing is, that becauae the company is closing down, i will be getting made redundant shortly and have been there 8 yrs. this means i will lose my redundancy, and at least 5k worth of bonus.
the worst thing is that i didnt tell hubby i paid off my friends loan because i knew he wouldnt approve. i now have to tell him that i have thrown away our safey net (the money from the redundancy and bonus was being saved to help us get by until i found a new job)
i now feel like i have let my whole family down and it all came from a good place....
i dont know what to do - i guess the first thing i should do is come clean to hubby.
