    Well, tomorrow's viewers cancelled, so they were obviously not right for my lovely home, but I have been sneaky and not told the children this, so they are still tidying their bedrooms :D

    Today I mindmapped my money situation, using the "layers" that Mr Big's challenges have been providing - starting with my survival budget, then my "needs" (ie my newly appointed cleaner), childrens expenses, required luxuries (or wants, rather than needs such as meals out and trips to the theatre) and finally a wonderful section called "surplus" :D

    This surplus will form the basis of my future growth because it can be invested, speculated with (remember, I am a stockbroker, so I *do* speculation from time to time), or simply reinvested in myself.

    It was the first time I have done it in such a format and each layer has a "source" and an amount, so it all ties in beautifully.

    So, thank you Mr Big, and MG for your input so far.......I feel very positive about it and can definitely see a switch in the way I am thinking :T

    So, now to make my list of 250 useful people......
