Well done bltchef :beer: :T
I'm always telling everyone I meet about how much I've saved (and still saving) since discovering MSE, I'm really sad! :rotfl:Mortgage-free wannabe!0 -
Congratulations bltchef! :T :T
It doesn't matter if your debt is £1000 or £100,000 - if its worrying you, then it is a problem. Well done on your commitment to getting out of debt. Am just starting to get myself sorted out and am looking forward to a few years of committed snowballing!!!
Hope you and your family have a wonderful debt-free Xmas. :T :T :beer: :beer:Proud to be dealing with my debts

Well done bltchef! As jenevieve has said, the magnitude of the debt does not matter if it worries you.
I think the most important thing by far is to cultivate a mindset which makes you more efficient with your money and not "needy" for things which are not really important but drain you of cash. Once this mindset is developed, staying out of debt becomes easy.
MSE is a good place to be educated in the ways of money! :TBe careful who you open up to. Today it's ears, tomorrow it's mouth.0
