    I know I know! But it was all dependant on a pay rise and so far they are being @rses about it! :(

    So here we are. A brand new year, a brand new challenge, and a renewed determination to become debt free and I'm hoping 2007 will be the year I do it! :D

    I know it's a very tall order but a wise man once said (it might even have been Homer Simpson :p ) "it's better to aim high and fail, than to aim low and succeed."

    That last bit - its good to aim high but not if its so high that it feels impossible and you give up! You won't be a failure if you don't pay it all off in 2007 but I'd love to see you give it your best shot, payrise or no payrise!

    So, how's that matched betting going?!

  • Yo what up homies? :cool: :p

    Thought I'd say hello and all that! :D

    Got my new visa debit card through today which means I can start hitting some of the easy bookies again! :j

    Am only £30 short of having made £2k from matched betting so am pretty chuffed about that. :)

    Moneywise I'm doing quite well. Got about £700 to last me less than 2 weeks and only £200-£250 will have to come out of the for essential spending so will have a nice chunk to throw at the debts.

    On the downside I've been rejected for another life of balance card! :doh:

    Seems crazy seeing as though this time last year I was still being accepted! :confused:

    Checked my credit report and all is fine so I guess it's just one of those things!

    Oh and I got my hair cut yesterday! :D
