Debt free at last!!

Options
After being in debt in one form or another for the last 20 years I am finally debt free :)

I didn't have as much debt as some on here (at highest point it was probably about £5k) but it was enough to make me feel uncomfortable.

These boards are an absolute godsend - a great way to motivate and keep you on track.

Now to get some savings together and hopefully start overpaying the mortgage :)

Keep chipping away at it everyone :)
