  • Hey TTGU, glad to see you are back on the debt repaying mission after my sturn words. Keep the house dream in your head but as Beanie says don't wish you life away. I have dreams and aspirations money wise, some I may not even accomplish however but we still have them. Remember to live in the present and live your life no too.

    Keep up the good work :j

    Hi TTGU, I have to say, I think you have done amazingly well - pat yourself on the back. The other thing I wanted to say, and I do tend to live by this also, is whenever you set yourself a goal, AIM HIGH. Always. Period. When you aim high and you laser focus on that aim, you will either flat out achieve it or get pretty darn close.....and either way you will do more than if you aimed for mediocre. Intensity, determination, and unyielding faith in yourself and the universe. With these things, you can do anything. Just look at what you have accomplished already. :) *HOK3Y sends a high five*

    This is soo true, in everything. I used to always think I would only just pass things at uni and so never really tried. Then in my final year I thought no I can get great marks and all this extra effort appeared to come from nowhere!

    Can see you have been doing well with your debt busting too!

    This site is great for people keeping each other inspired!
