Hi Folks,
ill be aiming to sort my own out later... but have just started with sons girlfriend acct. An overdraft going nowhere on an idle account. I got her to give me one pound I picked up an item to be sold on ebay 50% profit goes to the debt the rest pays charges and I will select another item to sell on, plus she is to give me a pound a week. This is going to be hard work as she is a bit lazy at sorting things out... hopefully by showing her the ropes she can pick it up from me and carry on to achieve this up for her own gra:idea:tification.This week extra payment

Did a full forward (6 month no less) cash flow plan, which shows the minimum balance I will hit in my bank account of £227 ... so just paid £226 to CC, the only one I have which bears interest. Feels good!
Now a case of hoping for no nasty unexpected surprises.Like all revolutions, guerrilla goodness begins slowly, with a single act. Let it be yours.

I do a full forward flow plan for 6 months too. Problem is we often have unexpected pay outs, school trips, school shoes, the odd pizzaI think on payday if I am in credit then that will go to the overpayment.
Well done on the extra payment.
Lancashirelassie How lovely of you to help your sons GF.
