Hey All!!
Wow! Such inspiration from you all and I can't believe that some of you have actually completed your challenges!! Go You! I am bursting with pride for you! It helps the rest of us see that there truely is light at the end of the tunnel.
When I first submitted my challenge amount of £6769, I thought that there would be no way that I'd ever achieve eliminating anywhere near that amount of debt but I knew that I couldn't continue the way I was headed either and I clearly had nothing to lose by joining up. The problem with having such a colossal amount of debt (£25k+) is that it becomes a part of your life for such a long time you never expect to be free of it.
However, it truly is about a change in mind-set and how you approach money. Now that I have discovered my magical little money jars, I can never go back to the way I was before. Every single penny truly does count. I never thought I would be here, coming to the end of the challenge having paid off over £4500+!Now, I've only got one last cc to go! ... :rotfl:... lol!
Who'd of thought that one little thread would have transformed so many lives? Thank you Amara, I owe you a debt of gratitude for allowing me to take control over my life again. I can't wait for our next payday when we can eliminate our last remaining cc and be debt-free! My, won't that be an amazing feeling? It's been so long! (Far too long!!)
Keep going everyone, you know you can do it! One final push, that's all we need ... here's to financial freedom for us all :beer:.
