Hi Happy
I don't follow Hypno's diary so didn't know about that challenge.
I'm no good as things like that to be honest, I just like my own mini goals then head down trying to reach them!
Someone else on here might come up with one and if it works for me I'll join inLBM Aug 09: £18,650.47 - Current: £12,854.93 (£5946.79)

Maybe one which goes on percentage pay. It would be impossible for me to pay of £20k for example (it's actually more than I owe lol) as I earn less than that in a year. Or percentage ££ left after non-moveable bills such as mortgage etc so 35% has to go against debt each month. I'm rubbish at explaining things but it's not so much on the actual value of the money (if you earn 16k and someone else 50k bit unfair to put a price on it!).Loan - [STRIKE]£6991.95[/STRIKE]£6180.01; Barclays Res - [STRIKE]£600[/STRIKE] £0 - £22 per week :eek:, NWB Grad O/D - [STRIKE]£1185[/STRIKE] £887.86 18.28% SWALEC - [STRIKE]£700[/STRIKE] £0 NPOWER [STRIKE]£220[/STRIKE] £0 Kays - [STRIKE]£591.28[/STRIKE] £0 TOTAL DEBT - [STRIKE]£10,288.23[/STRIKE] £7,000.01 31.96 % Paid off.
