I would like to be debt free and mortgage free by the time I'm 30, so 2015... (I think, I'm 24 this year)

Hello everyone!!

Hope you have all had a good Easter, I have now got loads of chocolate and somehow made myself £100 in money from family!?? At nearly 25 I kinda think I'm a bit old to be getting that much stuff for Easter but hey if they wanna give me cash I'm not complaining! That can help towards my birthday payments!

FF, don't give up on Lost!! I have a few theories actually but then I haven't watched yesterdays episode yet because I wasn't at home, its sitting on the sky+ waiting for me and will probably smash my theories apart! It's an amazing show just soooo frustrating!

Off now to make my PAD, wish all my transactions would show up on the bloody internet banking!

Hi everyone,

It's been a busy few days here, but my total debt £28,491 !!!!!!!!!!

I'm trying to make savings but my budget is pretty tight, payday is a couple of weeks away so will be able to pay of some debt then.

I've also got a few things on ebay which will come straight off the credit card.

Keep up the good work everyone!

Hi F_F! Good list of resources! How about adding this link to spendingdiary.com. If people want to keep a track of their spending online to free up more money for paying off debts?
http://www.spendingdiary.com
It's also free

Thanks for posting this flying fresian. It made me do some sums and work out that I will be 50 in 56 months, and that to clear my current debt by then I need to pay roughly £620 a month. That sounds do-able - and motivating and I'm going to adopt it as a personal goal. Thank you!

No worries! If you want to join our happy little band of debt-busters then just let me know and I'll add you to the list!

Hello!

If you want to join the challenge just let me know the rough date you're aiming for and the amount you would like to pay off by then.

Cheers

Yes, please add me. My goal is then to pay off £25k by January 2014, my 50th birthday. It sounds more daunting put like that, but £620/month sounds almost possible.
