    Thankyouandenjoy...

    Thats a really nice story, you sound really happy in your house with your family!!! :T :T

    Can I ask, what are the two numbers? Is it what you owed at the start and then what you owe now?!!?

    Your stock investment looks like a nice little nest egg - would you mind telling me how you amassed such a valuable portfolio of stocks? Say if thats too nosey of me...

    I'm 38 and I have 38G of debt, I remember when it was about 13.000 and panicking because it was so much. I wish that was all it was now, I got another letter today about another one of my cards going up another 5% again :o
    I'll get my SOA on here soon
    I'm £38.000 (2 loans and lots of cards) in debt. I'm still able to pay all the payments for now. (just) and am Snowballing my payments, throwing all I can at them, and trying to be very money savvy. They are coming down SLOWLY, but hey! down is better than UP right? Light bulb moment - Jan 2007
