Breaking for the surface

After being in debt since 18 (now 29) and having reached my maximum debt when i graduated two years ago (about 26k) i am now just 4k left on a loan. no credit cards. current account always in the black. I have just carried on living like a stooodent for the first two years of employent, throwing everything at the debts. After years of being a student frustratingly watching the debts grow despite trying to live carefully i finally feel like im swimming for the surface, nearly there..... I cant wait to log on to my banking and not have any - signs infront of my accounts!!!
This amazing site has kept me motivated when the temptations have been there.... next project will be : house deposit in 5 years! MSE all the way after learning the lessons!!
Much love
