  • 30th December 2014!

    I am counting down the days and literally can't wait to start living life again. Making plans for the future without that financial noose hanging around my neck!

    My husband and I are in a joint DAS and our last payment will mean we have paid back £60,000 in three years.

    Just put mine in on Snowball - and it is saying February 2016. I know that will not be totally accurate, as I often have one-off bills like vets, which will be added onto my interest-free credit card, but I do have more stuff to sell which will help. Looks like 2016 will definitely be my DF Year!!!
    DEBT FREE IN SEPTEMBER 2022, after 33 years of debt!
    Now I concentrate on building my £6000 Emergency Fund

  • I haven't yet tackled the full calculator, but judging by my largest debt, the aim would be to be debt free by the end of 2019.

    Just at the start of a very long road here, but I so want to be free from debt and enjoy the good wage I get from a job I love :( but :)
