    Hi Bernie,
    I certainly did, I used it work out where I could save some little amounts to start my attack fund. The more data you have the better you are armed for the fight !

    Hope this helps.

  • Big thanks to Dave i tend to have days where I go into clearing debt mode but have put it on hold just lately well some on hold. You have inspired me to start again. Emailing my creditors as we speak to set up some payment plans.

    I will be debt free :-) :)

    Wow, I can't believe nobody has commented on this thread since 29th March 2011 << confused >> even though it's made it to the weekly newsletter. Maybe it's the title?

    Anyway I'd would like to say a massive "thanks" to David the op Survivor_of_debt, and dave1961 for his contributions, this thread is truley inspirational and deserves to be bumped.
  • I have just read that and it's really motivated me to carry on going on my journey.
  • Well done Survivor and Dave1961 Iam going to sit down this evening and work out how much debt (there I've said it) I have and set to getting out of it.
    Thanks for your inspiration, have been burying my head in the sand for too long.
  • Thanks for posting that, I can relate to most things - especially the OCD! Really emotional and inspirational and a story to come back to when times are hard and we feel low
