    Welcome to 2017 Beanie xx

    Wow that mortgage is really coming down. There are folks on here whose debts are more than that plus a mortgage on top. You're doing really well :)

    Hope this year is a fabulous one for you xx

    If you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them

    Emergency fund 800/1000
    Buffer fund 0/100
