Thats my figures and signature updated - the journey begins!!!! 19 year plan most realistic but may aswell aim high!

Fantastic Target :]

Retiring at 55 would be amazing what would you do for an income once you stopped working ?

Firegirl · 12 May 2015 at 5:47PM

Well I might not actually retire at 55 but def want to be mortgage free. Another plan in the back of my mind is to buy to let. I want to get my mortgage down significantly before doing that so its a while off!

Just checked ebay and I have a bid for a £40 item!!! Very chuffed with that because I listed it about 10 times!!! yeeee haaaa:beer:

Luckyinlife · 12 May 2015 at 7:27PM

Ya the buy to let idea is a good one but so expensive to get into to start with

good work on the ebay stuff i sold £20 worth of stuff yesterday wooo :]

It's something I've thought about for a very long time but I need to get this hefty mortgage down a bit first!

I've just been having a look at another forum about making extra income. I tried swag bucks before but that was too much effort! I didn't like giving away all my data either. I'm a Test Analyst so there's gotta be something.

I'll look into elance but not sure about it or others like it. I could rattle up a nice spreadsheet pretty quick for a few quid!

It's actually killing me not to go for coffee before collecting the kids but it will save me £20 a month if I skip this regular trip!

Firegirl · 13 May 2015 at 10:15PM

Yay - £40 eBay sale successful! And I think I'm going to start moving even the small amounts I save from things like resisting a coffee and start moving it to my mortgage too. I know it won't make a difference overnight but it'll add up over the years I'm sure.
