Hi Amara

I really enjoyed the last challenge and would like to join this one. I have one little request if possible. I have been following the Dave Ramsey baby steps and I'm still on stage one, funding a £1000 emergency fund. I have been on this site for so many years but its the main area I have neglected. I feel that this is another debt, a debt to myself. I have challenged myself to get this sorted by the end of may.

So while still paying on my normal debts I would like to make this my challenge to pay off this debt to myself and then move on to another.

I need to pay £832.

Thanks Amara

Hi Parsniphead, I am a Dave Ramsey fan and have been listening to him for years. I just completed my £1000 emergency fund and understand the need to have a buffer.

Great to get going on this next chapter. I just got started on paying down on my overdraft so paid £1,400 this week.

£1400/£4,171.

I am going to try my best to stay focused over the challenge and not to cop out.

My first payment towards this challenge is £141.61. I have £55 cashback due in my account in the next day or two which I can't wait to add. Hopefully I can achieve this target and start on a card debt before the end.

141.61/832 17.02%

Good luck everyone and thanks Amara.

I used to be a regular lurker a few years ago and then stopped. Have reappeared as would love to clear my debt this year and found this a hugely motivating site.

I would like to join this challenge. My aim is to clear off a credit card with £2510 on it. Also motivating me is that its interest free at present but will start accruing interest in July 2016.

My payment that I'm cwtching away towards my total is £40.

I've decided that I'm putting this money (until I can pay off the debt in one go) into premium bonds - the debt is at 0% so it's not going to incur interest and I don't want the creditor to assume I can always overpay...and of course there's the off chance I might win something!

Of course I can't buy less than £100 worth of premium bonds so I've got a target within a target
