Hi everyone,
I have finally had the courage to sit and add up all my debts (over £38,000) I have been putting this off for ages, but feel quite elated :j, I know its gonna take me a few years to get straight - but I know i will do it! and why i want to do it!
I have got a rainy day fund (about £25000) and also a couple of endownments due to pay out in 2013 (about £16,000).
So now its time to tackle those debts! need to do a SOA thing, will do one tonight. Think i may have had a lightbuld moment :T
Wish me luck and looking forward to getting to know you all
