Pay Off Your Mortgage In 2 Years!

Hi Moneysavers,

I'm a newbie to the forum but have been using the website for ages. I decided to write here because I saw a program on BBC2 last night that I thought would help/inspire a lot of people. It's called PAY OFF YOUR MORTGAGE IN 2 YEARS and features couples/families/singles who have taken up the challenge of paying off their mortgage in, yes you guessed it, just 2 years.

This is obviously inspiring for those of you already trying to pay off mortgages, but I thought it would also be helpful for other Moneysavers who are just trying to spend less and make more income to pay off any kind of debt or just get some savings.

PAY OFF YOUR MORTGAGE IN 2 YEARS is on BBC2 Thursdays at 8 p.m. There is a book that goes with the series too. For more info see:http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/magazine/4584070.stm

Enjoy!
Linguistic Chimp salutes you!

    Yes, I found it very watchable. The couple who appeared on the show have also posted on here this morning. Have a look at this thread
