Sorry but not quite sure what the issue is?
Your outgoings are very low - do you live at home?
Aside from that - there are lots of things missing but you only have £300 of debt according to the SOA so what's your query?Grocery Challenge £211/£455 (01/01-31/03)
2016 Sell: £125/£250
£1,000 Emergency Fund Challenge #78 £3.96 / £1,000Vet Fund: £410.93 / £1,000
Debt free & determined to stay that way!0 -
Well, you have plenty of disposable income if your SOA is correct as you have few outgoings!
What is your secured debt?Savings target: £25000/£25000

And this is why I would charge my adult child at least £40 a week in rent/board. As per my previous threads on this matter. More disposable income than me. Although if my daughter was on about £300 a week I'd up the board to about £60 a week at least.
Pay your parents more and share the real costs of living.:footie:
Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S)
Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money.

You have put £300 for entertainment alone YET your total monthly expense is coming to £276.50! Should it not be £576.50?Mortgage deposit pot June 2012 = almost there.

Yes.. sorry, I added the entertainment after I used the SOA Calc..0
-
Still not sure what your query is - you have £300 of debt which you could pay off within one month. Do you actually have £700 left each month? You never buy anyone a present, buy clothes or get a haircut?Savings target: £25000/£25000

Hi,
I keep going into my overdraft each month to approx £500.00.
I am going to try and cut this down but does anybody have any good ideas on how to clear an overdraft?
Thanks!
This ^^^ is what you have said in a different thread but your SOA doesn't reflect this.
I'm not sure what you are hoping people will help with?0 -
In August last year you were advised to cut the £300 entertainment bill - what else do you expect to be told now?loose does not rhyme with choose but lose does and is the word you meant to write.0
-
Out of curiosity what is the 300 entertainment money spent on?0
