    Hi All,

    I fell down the rabbit hole of bad financial decisions in the last year, but I am back on track now. I don't have any spare cash whatsoever to PAD, but I'll keep reading posts to check in and keep me focussed until I am in a position to do so.

    Keep up the good work everyone,
    xx
