What do you earn, how much do you owe and how much are you paying off?

Ok thanks I'll look into it but the benefit office said it was 16 hours with the same employer.

I've also just realised (sorry, having a thick moment) that by then I will be married and my boyfriend will be living here. So that will be £50 per month I won't be spending on travelling to and from London.

It's not so much the cost of them getting to school that bothers me, it's more the fact that getting to school should be free.

I'm happy to post my info on here, but as others have ponted out it's personal and different for each person. I'm luck in that I earn a decent, if slightly irregular, wage, which enables me to clear my debt relatively quickly:

Income - £2,500 pm
Debts - £25k :eek:
Paid per month towards them...£1k :eek: :eek:

Sometimes I think what I could be spending an extra grand a month on, had I not been so foolish with my money years ago.....!

Pretty much the same here- income= £2600 pm, debts £25K +, paying off whatever I can afford per month- going to try for a grand a month from now on which will get me cleared in 2 years. If I hadn't been so foolish with my money for years I would have all this spare cash now

Hi
currently I earn between £10-£400 a week depending on how many orders I get but now the wedding season is kinda dropped off (august was very busy) and I'm not earning anything much after this month ( Thou got a job interview tomorrow for an evening job and if I get it I should bring home about £500 a month ) fingers crossed!

Average £400 a month
Debt about £25k
Payment £300 a month for another 8 years

I get about £500 p/m, husband gets about £850. We owe £11100 and we are currently paying £382.50 a month towards debts alone. We're now starting to save as much as possible to be able to pay off a bit of our debts each month.
