Hang on, what was your target SS!?! Over £22k in just over 2 years - I'd call that pretty damn amazing:T :T :T (and it's still over £22k, even if you do add on your interest)
No it was £22,000 in one year! :rotfl:
Hence why I failed badly! Was basing it on a payrise I never got! Maybe next year! :rolleyes:

That would have been one hell of a payrise - were you going to rob a bank SS? Seems to me that not getting the payrise means you should be even more proud about what you've achieved.1st April 2008 challenge:mad: xmas overspend = [strike]£254.05[/strike] £0:j......cc1 = [strike]£240.78[/strike] £0:j .......cc2 = [strike]£667.47[/strike] £0 :j ...amount owed to ISA = [strike]£1599.90[/strike] £0:jTOTAL TO GO = [strike]£2762.20[/strike] £0 !!!:dance: DONE IT DONE IT DONE IT!!!:dance:0 -

I really hope so oops. I just feel like the last 2 years have been a bit of a blur. Existing rather than living! :undecided0 -
Look how much you have cleared in a year!!!, I expect it's easier seeing to achievement from outside the bubble, we have only reduced our debt by £1000 in the last year, granted we usually have consolidated and added another 3 by now!! but..... So WELL DONE. (just to remind you!!) Roll on Dec 2008, fingers crossed for me too.LBM 17th April 2007:j

It's not whether you go out, or whether you stay in, it is who you are with.
Good company in is better than bad company out, and in fact no company staying in, is better than bad company going out.

Yes, it could be better, but it also could be worse - so I look on the bright side."Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)
