I'll start..
My biggest worry is keeping my job, I have worked for a small firm for the last 10 years. Trouble is it's in construction and the market is on it's knees!
I like my job but I need to keep it just for another year to clear my debt then if the worst should happen I know I can live with a lesser paid job!
It's horrible knowing that there is little I can personally do about this situation.
Over to you.

Same here...my job is in construction and the companies accounts are not looking too good at the moment. If I lose my job I wouldn't be able to keep paying my debts and I think things would quite quickly come crashing down for me.:happylove DD July 2011:happyloveAug 13 [STRIKE]£4235.19[/STRIKE]:eek: £2550.00 :cool:0

Thats exactly how I feel, I don't wish my life away but last year couldn't end quick enough for me and this year is the same! My wife & I want her to be pregnant by end of 2011 it was going to be earlier than that but we are responsible and wouldn't have a child before we were financially secure enough to do so.0

I would like to GET a job. I trained as a teacher 3 years ago but getting a job in my area is virtually impossible, especially at my age. Doing supply teaching has got me into a lot of debt because of the irregular income and having credit cards etc to pay.0

to be honest i am at the point where to me money is not important, yes i want desperatly to get rid of my debt but to me if i hit money problems due to losing my job well these things happen and i know with the help of this site and the advice here i woul dbe alright.
to me anything bad happening to my family would be my biggest worry so long as i have my family, their health and my health everything else is secondaryDrop a brand challenge
on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)0 -
My biggest worry is that our problems will overwhelm my partner and he will do something silly.
Hehas not worked in 2 years and is losing hope and I feel there is nothing I can do

My biggest worry is being in my six months initial probation at work after struggling to get a job and failing, it is getting on top of me as I worry about every single little thing.Learning to be 'good with money'0
