Wow! I've just logged on to MSE for a bit of information having been living abroad for six years and just skimmed through my diary... can't quite believe this was me all those years ago!
I'm still debt free and have actual savings!
- My offset mortgage account is equal to the savings that is in there
- I have a couple of other savings accounts that are looking healthy
- I also have a couple of investment funds that are performing well following some great advice last year from a friend
I am still living abroad, but able to come back to the UK every summer to see family and friends. Although when I am here I'm always in shock how much prices have gone up!! lolLight Bulb 13/09/09: £15,061.37 Debts at their highest:
