  • £8.31 paid from the savings i made on my weekly shop bringing my total paid off to £17.66
    DEBT
    31/12/2018 = £21,740.10 - 31/12/2019 = £18,581.29 (14.53% PD)
    31/01/2020 - £18,685.22 (14.05% PD)
  • Finally managed to make a payment today £80.09

    This was made up of money owed to me so didn't have to pay anything from my wage. I would have usually wasted that money on something else but this challenge had spurred me on to get this cleared.
    Smile loan - £2821.98 / £0:)
    Lloyds CC - £3102.54 / £3071.51
    B'Card - £7615.65 / £7444.30
    Bank of mom - £6000 / £6000
    28/02/17 £ 19,540.17 / £16515.81 05/04/17


  • I've decided to include the £1565 for the boiler but I plan to raid the childrens accounts to pay for that!

    I feel so guilty about the kids account that I'm going to set up a monthly direct debit into each next week - maybe £10 per month - to make up for the £500 each I've "robbed" from them this week

    Just who would be a parent? - guilt guilt guilt worry worry worry - and they're stll only 2!
    Total debt at 01/01/2010 £34,262 (Excludes mega mortgage) Daily interest £12.42
    02/10 Now £3.12 due to repayments, BT and :money:
    Olympic challenge £5081/£28,000 (18.15%)

    • I'm already worried about

      boyfriends (they're girls)
      How they will get home at night?
      exam results?
      what if they want to go to college/unversity hundreds of miles from home?
      What if they don't want to go to university/college hundreds of miles from home and end up tied to apron strings?
      drugs?
      alcohol?
      Violent or abusive relationships?
      getting boyfriends who have debts:money:
      How will they be able to afford somewhere to live?
      will they ever get a job?
      What if they have fertility problems like I did and end up spending over £30K on IVF - and end up here:eek::eek:
      what about their children?
      How will my girls finance their old age - will there still be pensons in 2067?
      What about their grandchildren?

      It's endless

      Have I missed anything?
