    We'll be here for a while then.I can only go on what we earn as we never know what we are going to earn but we will get there.

    The way we feel at the moment we will be old and grey and still trying to pay everything off! It seems every time we play catch up and save some cash something happens and we need to use it all :confused:
    Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup :D

    My earnings have taken a big nosedive, so in a way i feel a lot of responsibility because the extra money was there before. I thought once the biggest expense(eldest daughter) had left home we would have lots to spare..I felt comfortable in my little bubble because i had savings and could finally make inroads into the mortgage..
    Take your eye off the ball and someone comes along to burst your bubble..wish i had found this site years ago, i can tell you.

    Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:

    Know that feeling about having to play catch up...the accident nearly bankrupted us...how we survived was anybodies guess but couldn't have done it had I not have already found this site.
    Thing the biggest lesson I learnt was that I need to put money in the offset (so I can use it for dire emergencies) instead of paying absolutely every spare penny off my CCs which are interest free.I never want to be in that position again.
