I'll spare you the details and give you the shortish version.
At the highest my debt was about £6000, CC and Overdraft plus money owed to my parents. Currently that debt stands at £3600, majority on CC with Overdraft and what is owed to my parents making up the rest.
I want this all paid off by June next year at which point the CC will be resigned to the drawer for real emergencies and holiday safety. Currently I am in a good position to sort out my finances but with the ever changing economic climate I figure sooner is better than later.
Basically this is something I can use to keep me accountable and head for a brighter financial future. Good luck on all of your journeys!
