    Wow that's excellent well done everyone :beer:

  • Just seen that people are adding their min repayments as well as 'extra' paid off debts this year, so that means that I have in fact paid off more than I said earlier in this thread! I can add another £550 to the total making it:

    £1,242,831.68

    This total is amazing - anyone else out there? We still have a few hours to go!

  • I put my whole xmas bonus of £2,200 towards paying off one of my cards,

    which makes a new total of £1,245,031.68.

    Thanks to all you guys on here I am going to aim to clear as much of my debt as possible next year. It amounts to around £10k at the mo. I'll calculate it exactly tomorrow and post the full amount from the beginning of the year.

    Just getting this back on page one in case anyone else wants to add to our superb total before the year is out!!
    We must do this again next year to see if we can all beat it :D
    Huge congratulations to everyone who has taken the time to post with their contributions to our total and with moral support (bet Pixie didn't dream it would be so much!!):T :T :T :T :T

    We all must make a note today/tomorrow of our exact debt figures so that next year we'll know exactly how much we've reduced them by and do this again.
    Debt at highest May 2006: £27,472.24
    currently: £13,353.25

  • I thought I didn't have much to add, then I recalled that I paid off my £1500 OD with savings all the way back in Jan 06! I wasn't a board member but inspired by Martin's book, so I think it counts! :j
    New Total:

    £1,246,531.68
