Newbie!

Hi everyone!

I'm a new Debt Free Wannabe poster and I think the support on this forum is fantastic, it really goes to show that no matter how bad, you're not alone.

I'm roughly £4,500 in debt over 2 overdrafts and 2 credit cards and there are times where I feel as though I'm overwhelmed by it and there's no way out.

However, I'm using the advice Martin is giving and hoping to make a big difference to my financial status. I think I would manage it a lot better with support, which is why I posted here.

So hi everyone and thanks for listening!

Lou
