DFD confirmed! Not as bad as i thought....

Been here for about a month now (properly posting, not just browsing), alredy budgeted and taken cash only route. But todays surfing inspired me to look into each debt. SO....
I transfered a loan at a fixed rate to my EGG card - not BT! and no early repayment fees!:j
I had already opened a virgin 12mth interest free last week, moved last CC and OD.:T
Final loan with Lloyds - useless cant do much - so this will wait in the wings for now :mad:
i also found some usefull calulators which give me loan balances on a monthly basis (incoreporating early payments and re-jigged interest rates).
Turns out my DFD is 6 month earlier than my estimates!
Roll on April 2008 - I cant wait!!!!:beer:

Mine at the moment is Feb 2094 :eek:
I will be 124
Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:

I know its wrong - but you made me laugh:rotfl:
But if you do reach 124 - you could make a mint in book royalties and appearances - medical experiments at least

Not likely. The excitement of reaching my DFD will finish me off
