    Well done Andy, and well done those of you who paid off a debt or cut up a card:).

    After what is happening in the world economically,I am more determined than ever to pay off my debt, I found myself really worrying what will happen in the future-really really want to build up a saving nest. So well done, everyone who paid off any amount in 2011!
