    SShhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
  • I am 25 and 6 months. I had my LBM this year when I was 24. Snowball calculator puts me at 27 at DF date, but I hope to do it by the end of next year when I will still be 26. OH is 27 will be 28 at hopeful DF date.

    Perhaps with so many people realising the evils of debt earlier on in life, that knowledge will pass on to people younger than us and that in turn will begin to buck the trend of personal debt. You never know we may actually see the level of personal debt reduce below one trillion - or what ever stupid figure it is now!!
    Total Debt November 2016 =£9,660.52 :mad:

    Monthly Repayments = £593.09 :eek:

    Goal to be debt free December 2017/ Savings £500 :T

    As an older DFW, I'm hoping the average isnt too low. Would make me feel even older :o :rolleyes:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
