If those same things go up that much again on me in the next couple of years, than I'll be panic selling some so called assets.
I'm the dumb first wave of idiot who got to feel the brunt of the post Covid interest rate environment. With a family...didn't get my houses paid off by age 45 which will draw a lot of contempt from people in this forum as being terribly irresponsible. I'm stretched hard byalm these recent increases and zero personal wage growth. If a pro can help me double my wages...that would be nice...but I can't see how that happens unless I severely upgrade myself to move to a completely new field of work.

Ignore the posers on here. Getting your house paid off by 45 is a pipe dream for the vast majority of people. Anyhow, it is much, much more important to save money when you are young for retirement, than paying off debt, even your CC debt.
If you need more money, your best bet is to get a new job somewhere else.
