  • I have taken a month to sort out my arithmetic on this lol. I must be really thick. So my starting amount was £15468.00. It is now £15456.23. PMSL I'm a bit rubbish at this. I paid off my £300 as per snowball but put over £100 onto cards as necessary expenses and of course the dreaded interest that's been added. Should hopefully be okay from now on. Have managed to shuffle cards about so have managed to reduce my DFD from 2019 to 2016( nearly 2015) so at least that's a plus. So sorry Dragon but my numbers need adjusting again.
    5 Year plan. April 2020 to June 2025- CC and mortgage free by time I'm 60

    By end 2020 I want CC at £ 19,000.00.
    By end 2021 I want CC at £10,000.00

    Well done everyone, you all seem to be going great guns. I'm wishing the next few months away already as my car will be paid off in May enabling me to chuck more at CC debts!

    You and me both! My last car loan payment goes out 1st April. It will mean almost £300 per month to throw at the next debt.

    Another payment out today, £36.03 off the sofas! :j

    So, my total paid to date now stands at: £539.71

    I need to re-check my debt though, a couple if minor new spends on the card due to pay day not coming quick enough to and essentials cropping up too quickly! Shouldn't make too much difference though. Also need to check the interest and see where we end up!wlSell done everyone, keep up the good work!
    Total debt at LBM... £16,815.02 :eek:
