Mortgage Free in Three Yrs

skaps

Hi am really enjoying this thread and everyones success. Bet the banks are feeling crap about this - think of all the money they will lose! HAHA to them.

Does anyone know where i can read more about how people have managed to become mortgage free? Looking for some more inspirational stories.

Yes I would be interested in reading some more motivational stories and getting some more ideas on how to chip away at the mortgage-and how to raise some extra money to do it too!!! Please...

Try looking through this thread and see if anyone did a diary.

is there a mortgage free in 3 starting Jan 2010?

Just remembered there is a MFit - Take 2 one which started this year but the date for signing up has closed.

You could start a new one as long as dithering dad and tall girl dont mind. Theres not much chance of me being mortgage free in 3 years but I could help you run it. Let me know

There is a MFW 2010 thread which is a yearly challenge

Just to let you all know that I am now official mortgage free and my goodness does it feel good. It will be 10 years early and £45,500 paid off since the start of this challenge in April 2007.


Was a really odd week last week:

1. Wednesday my 14 year old cat died,
2. Thursday I paid the last payment of the mortgage & cancelled the DD
3. Friday we saw an IFA to start planning the future without a mortgage
4. Saturday we put a deposit down for an expensive Maine Coon kitten but wont get it until late April.

Well that's it for me I can now officially join the cheerleaders group and spur the rest of you on. I shall now update the chart monthly so get your update to me anytime and I shall post the chart around the middle of the month.
