Hi,
After recently going through a major financial disaster and coming out the other side now, myself and OH are looking forward.
We are getting married in may 15 and want to save £20k.
We would like to buy a house so want to save the deposit apx £20k
And we would like to expand OH business £20k apx
We have managed to save £3000 in 2 months so want to up the pace and save save save. If we push I think we can save £2300 a month, meaning we can do this in 2 years. Plus we have asked for money as a wedding present. We are planning on paying for all ourselves but my dad wants to pick up the bill. I feel it gives us more chance to save more this way. So we are hoping for a bigger balance by then.
Here's to a tight, frugal 2 years.
