challenge Make £11,000 in 2011 The Dribblers Advance

summertea

We are finally off the mark with £16 MS money to tuck into the bank major moneymaking to follow, i think i might try the double your money each month approach as it always takes me a while to get going.

I love the idea of thinking up money making ideas whilst ironing as well will have to start doing that :T

off to work at 2pm not the best or best paid job but it will cover the rent

Ok, i'm looking at using a credit union to save my money. I have one local too me so that suits well. Does anyone have any experience of credit unions?

Hey Babymoo that sounds great. You had quite a lot of stuff to get your head round last year and I guess there will always be more to come but you seem like you really believe that you can get your head round it all and be ok. You seem really proactive about getting support when needed and I think you will definitely find your way through. You were a big inspiration to me during parts of last year and its great to hear your year is starting so well. xx

Morning everybody!
Babymoo - you sound so revved up and ready for 2011 - I like it
Nixi - now, now, no sad face it isn't where you start it is where you finish

Thank you all 3 of you thats so lovely. I went through a lot last year and you lot all helped me in ways you can't even imagine! You opened up my eyes to different ways of dealing with my brother and his issues, you made me face up to my own demons and then helped me through it when I kept falling.

2010 was a hell of a year, I started off very low, in pain all the time and completely fed up. Now I may not have made my £10k last year but I made some friends for life and I got back me. I'm still in pain but have learnt to deal with that differently, I am 2 months of being an auntie and can never imagine how I would have dealt with that before and everything is really rosy in my world Loving it

Hi Nikki, i've used credit union for years with no bad experiences. Handly for saving and if you need a loan they will do their best to accomodate you.

Excellent. Their rate of interest is much higher atm that my savings account. Will probably open one for my little boy aswell as his rate dropped too!

Seen this on the shopping board. A good idea in the way that you can save cash and vouchers until November. I normally shop in Asda but I'm considering this!
