New Year - New Start!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Best wishes to all MSErs - especially those, who like me, have the need to be looking on the debt-free wanabee board at midnight on New Years Eve!

Hoping for a fresh start in 2007 and looking forward to joining the MSE community....

Spending tonight making plans to deal with my debts .....anybody else doing the same...?

    Well I'm certainly determined- and you will be too, it's addictive this debt-busting activity. Good luck and get your SOA together- you'll get loads of good advice once you've done that x

    Hi there and welcome..you've certainly come to the right place...when you're ready if you post your SOA..I will try and help you...:beer:
  • thanks taxi - i am battling my way through an SOA

    one problem being that although i have several debts, my available income is quite low - (i suppose thats the same for most on here) - my OH wont help me out with paying them off - so its going to be a very gradual process .......

    i made a start a couple of months ago and made a few small payments, but last month found myself unable to pay as promised - a cardinal sin i know...

    trying to make a more realistic plan

    thanks for your offer of help - cant tell you how much i appreciate it x
