15th. Going to set an aim of making that a single figure by end of year. Great calculation....means every 2nd day in the month the money i make is mine to spend however i like.
In reality not every day is a working day. So could change last sumWork in progress...Update coming July 2012.

I'm a bit rubbish at things like this but mine worked out at the 6th day of the month. Bit pants since I get paid on or around 25th every month. Certainly doesn't feel like I have that much money left as it always feels like too much month at the end of the money!Debt 30k in 2008.:eek::o Cleared all my debt in 2013 and loving being debt free
Mortgage free since 20140 -
mine came up as 16, so could be better really... Though only recently having had my 2nd LBM we will be throwing EVERYTHING possible at the debt that is outstanding.0

Wow - the 7th (or the 10th including groceries).
The slog to get debt free was worth it.
What a great post OP!DF

Thank god for benefits, making it 26 days - so 4/5 days a month of 'spare' money. Although probably more like 27 days as I need to change my monthly budget as no matter how hard we try our shopping is coming over every month

Ohh mine is 20 days, but as of next month it will be 18 when my last loan payment is made, woopieeReceived £2,626.00 in PPI -2013:j
Received £1400 charges - 2006:j0 -
Mine in theory is day 20 - that surprises me as it doesn't feel like that in reality.
I like the calculation though - my OH is living off his ample savings at the moment so this actually makes me look better off than him for once!!I seldom end up where I wanted to go, but almost always end up where I need to be0
