Just a few comments so far
incoming - outgoing = 1910-1128.59= 781.59 - where is this going? once you correct the unsecured section we can see what you have left0 -
Can we ask how old your child/children is/are? Was the cards & loans spent on items that can be sold on or utilised in some way? You are obviously working but is the car necessary? Your life insurance can be cut down, mine is approx £8 a month.
If I could get transport or walk to work my car would go, it costs approx £200 a month to run one even if the cars paid for.Tallyhoh! Stopped Smoking October 2000. Saved £29382.50 so far!0 -
