    Starnac, I am the same with the numbers - I felt sad saying I was going to update every time I cleared another 1% till I worked out that 1% of my debt is £287! :D

    That's why I'm doing money because 1% is 500ish quid when I can say a few percenta haha. I've updated again paid some off my secured loan 86.87 although the payment is 218.28 they do take a nice sum! Hence why finger now out. Need a sudden windfall haha x

    I have worked out that as there are 397 days left until 31st December 2011 (2011 is a leap year) I need to pay £16.62 a day :eek:.

    I'd have to pay £26.15 approx per day to be debt free by 31/12/11.
    what is a horrible thought is that i've worked out i pay £8.5 currently per day interest on my mortgage! No wonder the balance doesn't seem to reduce by much each month.


    ps i think a leap year has to be an even number????
