    Debt-free and Proud!
    Any amount paid off is going against the current trend of more and more consumer debt (what is it - over £1.5 trillion now?) so is an amazing achievement! I can't believe how high the total is already!!

    shameless bumping.

    elfen as had been said before any reduction of your debt balance is a good thing, no matter how large or small, it's all relative anyway
