All,
After 5 years I am debt free and it feels great!
Thank you to everyone for your support, it is great to know there are people in similar situations.
To everyone on a plan, keep at it!
To everyone struggling with debt and unsure what to do, the sooner you get started to reduce it, the soon it will be over and you will have control again.

I still remember closing my front door nearly 20 years ago and realising that everything in the house was mine and paid for. Some of it might have been old but all mine.0 -
