£18,063.76 will be paid in the next 10 months

I herby pledge that I will pay my full debt within the next ten months or sooner.

:)

So I've broken the debt down to pay 10% of my debt each month.

I get paid weekly on a Friday.

I need to pay £1806 a month for the next ten months.

I've made my first payment for this week of £360 towards my debt.

So my new balance is now £17,703.76

  • Wow thats a lot! Well done. I think I need to go small lol. Am thinking of just transferring any odd pounds and pence left in my account at the end of the week or something. My debt is currently around 5000 pounds but im aiming for 2 years debt free.

  • Hells yeah! Good luck! I like your determination! It's my favourite word!
    “Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent".
  • Well done Denis! I'm loving your focus!!!
