  • Hello, a wee payment to my credit card today:

    #118 £573.39 / £4861(11.8%)

    I thought that was going to be about it for February but I've been asked to take part in some research next week which should make £65 and if so, I'll be able to add that to my Feb total too :D
    Total debt at LBM = £4861.03

    DFBXmas2018 #91 - £3342 / £3500 (95.4%)

    HTB ISA - £0 withdrawn for house purchase! :D
    Wedding Fund £2550 / £5000
  • Hi everyone :D

    Just checking in! I've managed to pay off £868.61 :T So that brings my total to:

    #123 = £2,006.41/£2,990.41
    Emergency Fund: £300 / £1,000 (30%).
  • Hi all,
    Logging payments for car loan and Credit card, totalling £175.89, making my totals now


    #74 - £1046.76/£7000 = 14.95%


    Thanks Muppets!
    LBM 1.1.16 = £27096.59 - now £17,020.38

    Paydbx 2017 - £3588.90/£7000 = 51.27% - number 74

    #156 £819/13000 for Febrauary, lower than normal due to restructuring finances. Takes me to just under 15% I think.
