    Was laying in bed this morning and was thinking about money, as always! :rolleyes:

    Anyway, I thought I would dig out my first ever post! :D

    Could hardly remember any of it but it has made me realise how far I have come in six months and how much more knowledgeable I am! :cool:

    If any cares, here it is! :rotfl:

    Have spent the whole afternoon getting rid of the squeaks in the floorboards :rolleyes: so have spent no money! :j

    Think I'm gonna phone Tesco tomorrow and try to get my loan rate lowered. Could save me £35 a month so will be worth the risk of getting rejected! :D

    Am bored out of my brains so I though I would despress myself with figures! :rolleyes:

    Since the 1st October I have paid £4,731.39 to my debts! :eek:

    I can't believe how much that is! That could have all been mine! :(

    My total debt has reduced by £4239, which means £492.39 has been paid in interest! :eek: That's around 10% of what I've paid, however my interest rates are alot lower now I know what I'm doing. Sort of! :p

    Just so annoying to think what I could have spent that money on! :wall:

    If I wasn't in debt I'd be rich! :rotfl:

    SouthernScouser - am astounded at how many posts you have posted in six months! That's about 30 a day!

    Good on you! I thought I was addicted!
