I just wanted to update my progress so far this year! I had forgotten that I'd signed up to this challenge.
So far this year I have paid €5016.26 off my total remaining debt! I'm so delighted with this progress - halfway to zero! :beer:
I'm #118.Debts: Credit Card: €6000 ---> €5050 Feb 25 \ Overdraft: Step 3/100
Savings: FF Fund: Step 23/100 \ CU: 3755/40000 -
#46 here,
Paid a final £50.72 to my defaulted account.
Finally made it to £1076.25/£1076.25 with 4 months to spare
So glad I got this off my back just my O/D and CC to sort now but both are totaling under £2,500 so I know I can do it in 2014, since I am not being buried in interest I am going to try and save a good emergency fund and save for a future house with my girlfriend until January.
Hope everyone's getting along well and I will still be checking in to see all the great progress!
But now,time for a drink!! :beer::beer::T:T"All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered, the point is to discover them."
