    . Yesterday I paid my credit card off. Today I am debt-free for the first time in 20 years.

    I remember a few months ago flyin_fresian saying it felt amazing to make the last payment, so I was waiting for the feeling of euphoria - I'm still waiting!! :rotfl::rotfl: :rotfl:
    Maybe it will kick in next month when I realise all my wages are mine. The revised spreadsheet looks bl00dy fantastic!!!!!

    So yesterday and today : £2986.55


    :jFantastic news - oh how I look forward to the day I can say the same thing. Enjoy every moment :j

    Thank you jayjay & boysma. It is lovely knowing I've done it at long last. I [STRIKE]have[/STRIKE] had been in debt for 20 years (more than half of my lifetime :o) and I suppose I really started tackling the problem properly in 2007 after a few half hearted and failed attempts.

    I thought I'd feel really happy but I just feel exhausted :D but then I have worked like stink to get the bonus (it's all based on turnover & profitability so all those 50+ hour weeks have paid off!) We're off on holiday on Tuesday so I'm really looking forward to the rest.
    I myself am made entirely of flaws, stitched together with good intentions...

    Morning everyone, are you all well?

    Hope you're feeling much better now Erme, sorry to hear you've been having a tough time of things.

    What an odd couple of weeks - all those bank holidays created havoc with the bank balances, it didn't update for ages. The good news is I must have done super-well at work as my bonus was more than I expected. I had to wait for the whole bank holiday bank things to settle down and I took some money out of savings but I've done it. Yesterday I paid my credit card off. Today I am debt-free for the first time in 20 years.
