    Can somebody explain what the running totals are? Are they what you have paid off your debts in total? They seem such huge sums of money. Or are they outstanding debt, and does that include mortgage? I cannot get my head round the huge figures. My debt is around 20k which is just about my annual income as well. I always feel really inspired by the dfw board, and am determined to make a real dent in my families debt in 2010.

    Sorry for all the daft questions, I am loving how motivated you all are.:T

    Its the totals of everyone's paid off debts added together.

    Each time someone posts their amount they have paid, they add it to the total from the last person and so on :D
    Say person 1 paid £200, the total is £200, person 2 paid £300 so the total is £500 etc etc.
    Hope that makes sense.
