A short note of encouragement to all DFWs.
Six and a half years ago we owed more than £75,000 on credit cards.
A couple of weeks ago I wrote a cheque for £805 that paid the last one off.:j
You can do it.
Keep focused.

Wow! thats a truly fantastic result :T
My own good news is that I have spent two years clearing £5-6k of CC debt and a once-spiralling overdraft of £2k. As of pay-day at the start of October, I am finally "in the black" :beer:
With the sound advice of MSE and its fanatical MSE'ers, I have been inspired to cut my spendthrift ways and do something positive about my debt before it became uncontrollable.
If I can do it, just about anyone can :rotfl:
All the best, PeteDebt-free as of 01.10.08. I will never have a CC again and I'm "in the black" :beer:0 -
Yay! Well done Debt Then 06.07 - £11,000 - Debt Now £0.00

brilliant. I had a similar amount and am just under 40K after 2 years, sometimes it seems so hard and will take so long but I am encouraged by your post0
