    Wow this is so motivating!!! It's going to be a few years before we can sign the debt free roll of honour so I'm excited about having this to look at!!!

    My first milestone to shout about is finally paying off a £2500 overdraft after 10 years of having it ����������

    This was in January and I'm now working on paying back the bank of mum and dad.

    Keep up the good work people!!!

    Great thread, and WOW, some amazing ammounts people are paying off, and succeeding! :beer:

    My first milestone was last week, when we became overdraft free for the first time in approx 8 years...and it's staying that way!

    Next milestone for me will be breaking through the 10% paid, will be back to post when achieved.
