    Will my £2292 help?
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

  • Hi there, not so much this year but do have a gorgeous son!

    Paid off £3485.61 on maternity leave

    I think that makes the total £304726.31 but please correct me.

  • Just about to the penny £20,000.

    Another £25k for me to go. Hopefully I can do it in 2010 but it will be blooming difficult.

    Adding this and the totals for Spud30 and Irishmist, I reckon the new total is:

    £324,726.31

    This year, despite reduced hours/pay, I've still managed to reduce my debt mountain in 2009 by:

    :snow_laug £10514.46 :snow_laug

    leaving a total of £25,621 remaining. This makes your total now:

    £335240.77

    Hi,

    Since my LBM in August 2009 I've paid off £4,478.88 ( as of today) and aim to be completely debt free by November 2011! I know with the support of this board I can do it!

    Cheers :T

    With contributions from Leixlip1 and Bicky, the running total now stands at an amazing:

    £361,319.65

    Last year's total sort of petered out at around £420,924.40. Let's see if we can smash that total this year!!

    Well done everyone! :money::T
