  • bluebella - it's up to you if you want to increase, but there's no pressure to increast it now. You could always see how you're doing when you reach £2000 and have another think?

    Hi trueblue - I just focus on total debt, so hope I'm getting this right. Do you want to have a total debt target of £3650, or do you want your target to be £2900 and the car loan not included?

    As much as you might think you missed out on the student experience, there were aspects of it that weren't all that great -I was at uni for 5 years, gathered £7k of debt (not including student loans), lived in some awful flats, stressed out a fair bit about where rent money would come from, spent 2 years stupidly worried about heating bills, and missed about 5 family funerals because they coincided with exams. Student discount was great though (not that I ever had the money to buy the discounted items!) And I do miss the holidays :rotfl:

    Yes please the whole debt omg now its all written down in black and white its quite scary to see how much it is ....thank you for your support x

  • To date I've paid £500 of my to debt of £8000. This is below my estimated projection. Anyway it's a start, just need to work much harder to get to my goal.
