    My recent sad moment was when I found 5p in the bottom of my bag and entered it into YNAB (You Need A Budget).

    It involved switching on my laptop, waiting for it to boot up, opening YNAB, waiting for it to load, entering the 5p and allocating it a job.

    It was 2am.
    Highest debt: £25,702.08 :( (estimated) DFD 29th August 2018 Paid £35.25
