I'd like to join please! MY 1% IS £60
I am so inspired by the 1% idea.
I started making overpayments on my loan in April 2012.
On Excel I made a table of 100 cells for my £6000 debt. Each cell being £60 (this does not include the minimum payment)
So far I have 14 gold coloured cells = 14% paid off :j .
84% to go!!Dave Ramsey Fan[/COLOR]0
