The "Save 12k in 2015' Thread!

wishus

Managed to pay off £427.65 of the loan balance as I overpaid on the first with money saved from downgrading to the bus this month instead of the train. I actually paid in £520.64, so £92.99 went straight to the bank, but I've saved £17 in interest. It will get better and better the more I keep going.

£1,455.97 for May, have passed 75% of my target already.

New baby born last week, it can only get worse

Congratulations to the new addition. Wishing your family all the best.

Sorry for the slow update. Had a bit of a horrendous day yesterday (see my mfw diary for more information) regarding bump, so not felt like doing much.

Anyway, spreadsheet updated

slowlyfading, hope all is better now. Take it easy, put feet up and supervise! Keeping you in my prayers.

Hey everyone,

We are halfway through the year, which is a scary thought! I am reporting £3,500 for June. I'm trying hard to resist temptations to spend!!

I hope everyone else is making progress and enjoying the nice weather!

Oooh interesting post. I was wondering what the dream fund in your sig was for! How exciting to have made such a good start on it.:beer: I am following with interest. You and Mr MM have got me thinking about FI. I suspect that for me as a single 35 year old renter that ship sailed a few years back. But my income and attitude are much better these days so I will review after I've bought a house. Mr MM would surely tell me to get on with being badass, no excuses and better late than never!??:rotfl:

Sorry been away fro a while, RL has been challenging recently. Some fabulous saving going on here as always- think is going to be a big fat zero for me in June though- but I will wait and see nearer the end of the month.

A massive thank you to edinburgher and lomcevak for all of the advice re geriatic laptop I really appreciate it. I will be attempting to resus it (maybe with help of friends techy hubbie ) with some of the suggested things after payday- handily the laptop is an '08' Mac book!

Congratulations on a baby edinburgher too! :j
SF- been enjoying your blog- inspiring!
