Please can I join in?

I have been slowly paying off my debts and overpaying the mortgage (slightly) for the past 2 years and have reduced the credit cards down from 28k to 7k and the mortgage down from 122k down to 97k.

I want to pay off the cc completely and reduce the mortgage to 80k

So my target is to pay off 24k by 31st December 2011

I decided to start from the day I started the challenge, some have joined me. Others are starting when they get paid or in January. It's entirely up to you!

HI, Can I join in please?

I would love to pay off £7500 in 2011, which is £625 per month, I think over the year I can do this.


Good Luck everyone.

Ooh can I join?

I'll make my aim £5000 - £500 a month minus the interest (roughly). This is going to be a BIG ask and will require some overtime/extra income. Hopefully this thread will help keep me motivated in 2011!

I'll start tomorrow, my pay day for January comes early in December. Which means 5.5 weeks until the next one! :mad:

Good luck everybody... get set GO!
