A strange milestone but an important one for me. As it's October 1st I got all the statements and bills out and, as I do once a month, sorted out my monthly accounts; and I suddenly realised that, after many years of having a chaotic approach to money prior to that LBM, I'm in control!
I knew what was going out and coming in and when, what expenses I needed to budget for and when, what I could pay off or put into the savings and when.. And I knew it even before I started checking and putting figures into the spreadsheet.
And when I ran the #checksum on the columns they all tallied with the figures I'd already worked out in my head. It's an inexpressibly wonderful feeling!0 -
My debt is now down under £3k. I have £373 left to pay on my Barclaycard, hoping it's gone by Christmas.
Debt free date is set to July 2017 but it may come sooner!0 -
