    Hi IMD - just catching up. You are clearly v famous and important having had your very own troll!:rotfl:I think he got more than he bargained for though. Remind me to NEVER get on the wrong side of any of you!:D

    And you know what the beauty of reading it all was? The fact that they beat down his scurulous allegations with logic and deathly accuracy. :D It was one of those situations where I thought 'Is it even worth acknowledging this illogical idiot as it will probably only give him ideas above his lowly station', but having Hypno - the professional financial guru - aboard only made the sinking of his illogical ideals all the sweeter. :)

    Tra la la la la...we're not listening! :rotfl:

  • Why is it when you hit a milestone you feel the need to berate yourself becuase of how far you have left to go then you end up feeling fed up... anyway must try and keep focused just as one thing pleases another makes you feel down again arghhhh :'(

    Don't go there its about moving forward and appreciating how far you've come. I always found it easier to focus on one card rather than the overall debt. Bit sized chunks and all that. Blimey girl you come from £77k of debt to under, I'll repeat, under £60k. Every month that passes you are paying a greater % off the debt and once a few cards etc get cleared they really start to tumble.

    Can you also remember how it felt at the very beginning not to be added to the debt by overspending let alone paying a whacking 22% of the debt off. Enjoy your progress and focus on small targets.
