    Not too bad a situation for me:

    Age, 25
    Salary, £29k
    Debts and mortgages as per sig.

    The mortgages are the problem more than anything, since half my income's dropped on them as soon as I get it.
    Debts (26.3% remaining) - CC/BARC: [strike]2058[/strike] 100.00 @0%; CC/MBNA: [strike]1877.75[/strike] 0.00; Loan/SLC: [strike]10000[/strike] 7901.84 @1.5%; Loan/Per: [strike]1500[/strike] 0.00; Loan/HX: [strike]15000[/strike] 0.00
    Mortgages (94.7% remaining) -     NW: [strike]92516.94[/strike] 87565.40 @3.19%; HBOS: [strike]65599.57[/strike] 59106.45 @4%, [strike]69251.57[/strike] 68589.97 @3.49%
    Total amount of fail: Dangerous (223263.66)

    40
    income 12k + a lodger (3600)
    debt 14k student loan - £9k cc's loans - £3500 floating debt (o/d's and using cc's) total = £26500

    I am now 41 (and a half)

    Thanks to this lovely site my debt is now much reduced

    My current income is £12k + 2 lodgers and some part time work which also qualifies me for WTFC - total income is nearer £20k tax free


    Student loan £13.5k
    CC's debts £5400 (0%)
    Floating debts - £0
    Total debts = £18,900 (ish)

    :D Thank you chaps!
    Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:
    Total debt as of 28/4/19 £7867.38:eek:
    minus 112.06 = £7755.32:money:
