    Well folks, I've hit a big milestone today I have now paid off 56.14% of my debt.

    I had 3 debts in Jan this year and now I am down to 1. If things go to plan my new debt free date will be Jan 17. I spent the last 10 years of my life in debt and I'm so close.

    Party on everyone

    Morning!

    I've got our loan down to £11,875 meaning its below £12k therefore we have paid off all my husbands old debt from years ago - £10k - from when we first met. It had been transferred onto 0% credit cards over and over again until we got a loan a few years ago.

    That's the end of an era.

    Next stop is getting the loan down to sub £9k because that means we will have paid off my old car (that I no longer own).

    According to my spreadsheet this will take a year but I'm hoping it will be sooner.

    I'll have a nice cup of coffee please!

    Cheers!

    Crunchy xx

    Oh and I've also paid off over half my debt from when I started a diary just over 2 years ago. I very much hope I will be debt free in 2 years time.
