Me please for the last time hopefully
Target £1334 to be able to finish my mortgage in April, probably not achievable but definitely will be May :j
Dont mind what number I have.
Im not sure whether to include in my target my standard OPs as I always have done in which case I need to add £184*4 to my orig target. So new target £2070.
My first std OP of £184 plus extra £150 done.
Total £334/£2070 16%MFW 16 No 33
2016 OP Paid/Target 2063/£2063 (100%) COMPLETE
Mortgage Free - Apr 2016 -DONE!:j0 -
Yes please - #28 - I had to sign up again but was #28 in 2014 and 2015.
Please can you put me down for £30k and fingers crossed I can manage it. I am planning to be ultra frugal this year and with no set income I need to clear through the mortgage debt as and when I make decent money so lean times will be less lean.
Thank you for running these threads!0 -
Hi Lomcevak, thanks for running the thread again!
I'd like to join again, #32 in 2015 but please change it if it makes it easier.
As I finish work soon for maternity leave & won't be returning until April 2017 our income will be dramatically reduced, but I'd like to aim for a target of £1500 this year. I'm hoping I'll beat this, but I'm still a little unsure of how the budget will work once baby is here so am being cautious!MFW 2016 #32 £1574.66/£1500:j:j0 -
Hi everybody,
Happy New Year to you all.
Lomcevak please can you put me down for the challenge again this year.
I'd like to keep # 137 if possible, and I'm setting my target at 12000.00gbp
Thankyou

Hi, I'd love to sign up again for 2016, great if I can keep #90 but no problem if not.
After much head scratching would like to go for a target of £8,000 for 2016. It will be quite a stretch for us, but that's what this challenge is all about and with a bit of effort should be achievable.
Wishing you all the best of luck!2021 MFW #130. Target: £300/£25000 -
Reporting first OP of 2016, £497.19. This is our current standard OP each month, but hoping to make some additional payments here and there too
2021 MFW #130. Target: £300/£25000
