New clothes. A new(ish) car and start saving for a mortgage.

I will finally be debt free in September this year after a 4.5 year battle. The feeling is amazing now that I am virtually at the end. I am going to take the financial lessons I have learnt and make my future something wonderful

Well comfortable at least :-)

Well done for being nearly there!

When we get out of our worse debts (approx 13k worth of cc, od and car finance) we are buying a kitten :j be atleast 12 months away, realistically about 12-18 months away). Then when our loan is cleared, hopefully by feb 2015 we are saving for a trip back to Amsterdam, (our honeymoon location), with no kids, for our 5 yr anniversary in sept 2016. All out break in the poshest hotel, again where we stayed on honeymoon

Like you I am planning on saving for a new car, going the whole hog though as I want a BMW!! Then I will be using the money wisely towards the house to get some equity there finally!

when I am debt free I am going to save for a wedding/ house/ child! I also plan to do a bit of travelling too as I haven't been to many places and would love to see the world! xxx

I will be debt free on the 01/01/2013 (if not earlier) after a frugal 3 years however by doing so I managed to shave off 2 years of my DFD after my LBM in November 2009.

My first wage just for me, I will take my mum on a spa weekend as she has been my rock this whole time (debts were joined but in my name and as you can guess, I am single now for a while :rotfl: )

Anyway, after that, its saving for a house deposit. I am 40 next year and my aim is to be in my own house by no later than 41.

Pardon me for asking, since I'm not on this forum as much as many of you, but what does LBM mean?

I'll also add that along with going on a nice holiday, I'd buy a few new pieces of furniture for my place.

LBM = Light Bulb Moment

Thank you.

I'd probably buy a new car too.

Trouble is, it sometimes seems to be SO FAR into the future that we'll all be driving "hover cars"!

Oh well..

Once I am DF I will be putting money away for my wedding next year...only 14 months to go :j

I am also planning on treating my mum, best friend and fiance as they have been amazing :A

Can't wait for the day when I'm finally free of 11 years of debt!
