    # 46 - reporting early for December and declaring my final numbers.

    I hit my 2016 target in November, so I'm happy about that. For that reason (and also for unforeseen December / Xmas expenses) I've cut the December payment completely back - anything unused can go to the 2017 pot!

    Final numbers:
    Dec o/p - £26.91
    Target for 2016 - £3500
    O/P £3641.26 - 104% to target. Quite pleased with that as we've spent a lot on the house this year as well.

    See you all back here for the 2017 challenge, and Happy Christmas everyone!

    Mortgage 1 - 01/2/2015 - £243,750 ; Mortgage 01/11/2024 - £132,576.55
    Mortgage 2 - 2019 - £76,600 ; Mortgage 01/10/2024 - £47,763.29
    MFit-T5 - reduce to £140,000 MFiT-T6 - reduce to £110,000

    01/10/2024 Daily Interest - M1 = £18.27 (!!); M2 = £7.41

    Debt at highest point in 24 -£21,344
    Debt 1st November 24 - £16,192.18 24% paid. Focusing on this in earnest!!!
  • So of the £20k target... £16,700 paid off November YTD and another £1k to go in December...

    So an 85% result but if I had said £15k at the start of the year the rest may have gone on beer!

    I promise to try harder in 2017....
