    About this ebook

    Boycott Credit is a series of books authored and published by Writer Tihan van der Walt, after he found himself in the ultimate credit crunch — over indebtedness.
    These short books cover the different stages Van der Walt had to experience; from the day he left his parents’ house to the day when he realised that he is in deep trouble and something needed to be done for him to restore his credit record and his life.
    Whether you are only starting your journey as credit-seeking adult or already in the clutches of the credit monster, every one of these books can help you get your life back together. Best of all is that Van der Walt is not an experienced debt counselor or anything to that effect, just an average Joe who went too far, both unknowingly and unwillingly.
    The aim of these books is not to entertain the reader or to make an extra buck, but to warn others before they sign a document which might cost them a few years of agony and frustration.
    Over indebtedness is an actual life-threatening circumstance brought upon innocent consumers who aren’t necessarily as educated on the field as the lenders themselves.
    This is a good reason for you to Boycott Credit.
