  • Hi El, certainly sounds like you have it all planned out. I wish you the very best of luck with it all as it sounds very doable. xx

    Sounds a brilliant plan, but lots to take in on a first reading. Definitely sounds the way to go with the balance between finances and life too.

    ive been doing this a while now NTBY but the thing was it was never the full no holds barred not kidding amount (like the way hypno does it) but when i sat down and worked that out it actually felt quite good ... to think that in 100 months (yeah ok it is a long long way a way) our house will be ours and we will have savings ... that feels empowering
