Be debt free and have money in the bank, sounds simiply, but in the mean time, i have done the one thing in my life that has made me happy. I went to NY in feb, with my best friend, my husband. This forefilled every dream. i have budgeted it will take me 2 years to pay it off, which i am doing, but after the 2 years i have had, it is worth every interest free penny!!0

That is great, Narva :T.............. i have done the one thing in my life that has made me happy. I went to NY in feb, with my best friend, my husband. This forefilled every dream. i have budgeted it will take me 2 years to pay it off, which i am doing, but after the 2 years i have had, it is worth every interest free penny!!
We have not fulfill any of our dream
(still saving very, very hard for it)

Narva - New York seems to have that effect on people. I went a few years ago - the nearest thing I did to a tourist type thing was walking into the lobby of the empire state building. I saw the queue to get to the top and walked right back out the doors.
I had the time of my life there. One of only two (maybe three) big cities I've been to where would like to live in the long term (and I live in Manchester now)
1> New York.
2> Edinburgh.
(3> Maybe Geneva.)
The more I think about it though, the less sure I am I actually want to live in a city at all!
Now once it is paid off, save up and go debt free for your second trip.
My once in a lifetime thing I really want to do...?

OH, I have beene lucky enough to fulfill many dreams already, hence my journey to be debt free. These have included NYC 3 times, bungy jumping and white water rafting in NZ, I worked in America for a while, visited relatives iN canada and Australia., owned a sports car.
I still have to do
- the trans siberian railway
- fly business class to Australia
- pay my mortgage off
- have another child
- buy another sports car that I can afford to keep
Protector - just seen you had LBM this week, good luck in your debt free journey. Keep coming on here, if only to read other posts and keep motivated.0 -
1. Have money left in the bank the day before pay day

2. Visit San Francisco
3. See Las Vegas by Helicopter at night
4. Buy my own house!
Not sure how long it will be before I can fulfil any of them
