    This year (or rather in the last week or so) I have managed to clear my debt £5158 plus a few pence:j It might not seem like a lot of debt to some but it was a huge debt for me.
  • I have cleared £3200 YAY
    NatWest Loan - £12,090.06 Mum/Dad - £14,750 TOTAL £26,840.06
    As of 01/01/2010 - DFW Date - 01/12/2014 59 MONTHS TO GO
  • I have cleared £8000 in 6 months which I am happy with, actually if you factor in the car we had that we returned to the HP company with £15k still owing on it (it was worth more than that though!) then we have paid £23k off in 6 months!!!!, imagine what it could have been if I had had my LBM at the beginning of the year?
    Aug GC £63.23/£200, Total Savings £0
  • £9312. Still a very long way to go, at the current level just over 5 years.

    Need to up it some more and do the bloody overtime, finding it hard to motivate myself.

  • Afternoon all..just (finally!) added up this months debt busting and as you can see from my sig, have cleared over £5k this year. Really pleased as although I haven't hit the £8000 I set myself this time last year, I feel SO MUCH happier compared to last December when at nearly £30,000 in debt everything seemed bleak and depressing. I have decided this will be my year and I will set my target of £10,000 by Xmas 2009. Good luck to all for 2009!!
    Debt at lightbulb moment (June 2007) was £31,738.19
    Debt as of 1st January 2010 was £21,905.82
    Current debts total as of July 2014 £4,300
