Newbies' 10K in 2010 Challenge!! :)

Chriscjc2002

Sallymander, Ames, xEMSKIx, Rictus123 welcome aboard my thread!!!

More the merrier, the more support and ideas we can give each other the better! :T

Sounds like most of you are looking to clear at least 10K so we can tackle this momentus task together!!

Sallmander - same with me, iv got about 30K im totalling it up as we speak and will detail it all later but I think 10K is a good figure to start and make that dent

Im really looking fwd to it too - it takes the daunting edge off it having guys on here to talk to and making it a 'challenge', if its less of a chore your more likely to pull it off

Ames - what figure you looking at hitting, your welcome to state your target figure and try and hit it with everyone else we get on board......lets try make this fun and take the stress out of it

Oh in heindsight how differently I would do uni now....spent like an idiot - i didn have a clue :S

xEMSKIx - defo will be glad for your input welcome to the thread and our challenge


I dont know about you guys but im so looking fwd to this....be good to see light at the end of the tunnel and ill be so proud if i do it!!

Hell......if we all do this we should meet up Jan 2011 in London for a beer and celebrate!!!! lol

Ames

I want to clear my debt by the end of next year (I'm 30 on Jan 2nd 2011), which is erm, around 3k but I can only do it with 40% f&f's, plus I want to pay my dad back the £400 I owe him. So over all I'm looking to save 1200 (I've got some already saved). It doesn't sound a lot, but I'm on benefits so it is to me.

Welcome and good luck

Buffythedebtslayer

I should have about 11,000 left by the end of the year, I am not a newbie but can I join?

I REALLY want to get out of debt so I can maybe leave my job. My original debt free date when I started here was dec 09 (I will be CC debt free by then, just the loan left) (the big scary loan!!!)

thanks

Buffy xx

I'm not a newbie either but would love to join in. (Have had a couple of userneames so far!) My debt currently stands at approx £9800. I will be able to chip away at it a bit more so think it will be about £9000 by the end of the year. But there is a possibility I will be made redundant next summer so really need to get it paid off ASAP. Good luck everyone!

Chriscjc2002

Course you can guys!! Welcome on the thread!

Lets crack this debt :T

Day 2 of this thread and our numbers are growing people :beer:

Currently (still) totally up my debt to the penny......think i may run out of spaces on the calculator :eek:

ragstoricheswannabe

Another "not a newbie" wanting to sign up!!!! if i could pay £10k off next year i would of cleared nearly half my debt (its around the £22k mark at the mo)

For those that like numbers it means paying off £833ish a month.............

good luck everyone!!!!!
love rags

Wow - when you put it like that Rags that's just about all of my wages. :eek:Meaning we would need to live on OHs wages! Our fixed term on the mortgage finishes Feb/ March time which should mean we're about £400 a month better off so that should help!

Chriscjc2002

hehehe think i need to edit the title lol and clear something up.......

Im not 'Newbeist' lol

This thread and challenge is for anyone interested, the title is misleading lol

I meant - im a newbie posting it, not you need to be a newbie to do it lol :rotfl:


:rolleyes:

Chriscjc2002

Hey 'Rags'.......welcome to the thread

When you put it like that it sounds a lot....we got our work cut out!

Still a challenge isn't a challenge without it 'being' a challenge right?!! :T

roll on 2010 and our en-mass debt reduction!!! :beer:
