    just re-read my post and my initial thought was 'who am i kidding' - I have been rubbish of late and will therefore be screwed when I am *only* saving.

    Oh well, cross that one when we come to it

    I suppose the key to this is keeping on this board and in the challenges etc as I would be easy once debt free to think you don't need this place anymore.

    I really want to start making extra cash as well, not mega bucks but doing more surveys, dooyoo etc. and then everything I make I want to put in a savings account for my DD.

    I've drifted from here a couple of times and you're right being here really helps. Plus having your daughter to save for will be a fab motivator.

    My piccys of favourite houses in Rightmove list doesn't quite work as well!

    This place definately focuses your mind and I find the days I don't come on here I don't think about money at all. Some may say thats a good thing but for me its not as when I stop thinking I start spending :rotfl:
