  • Keep going 40sm - it is tough and families are not cheap - but it is true that love is what they need the most...you can do it....this time last year I owed almost 10k personally, now it's half that, just by staying focused and getting my priorities right, and our overall outgoings are high...and BTW there are many many better at this MSE lark than me, but I do what I can and you will too.

    Just focus on the big picture and what you want to achieve, and you'll get there......
