Debt total once a day

Hi everyone

I'm creating this diary to show our debt balance every day and payments made...

So current situation
Argos card - £727.90
Very account 1: £652.83
Very account 2: 910.79
Natwest CC: £325.86
Mbna card: £2279
NatWest loan: £1867.53
Bed loan: £296.04
Bike loan: £250.48
OH car loan: £1020

Total: £8330.53

Tomorrow I'll be back with tomorrow's balance and the payment I'm about to make to Argos.

  • I used to find it really helpful (when I had multiple debts of about £17k/£18k) to have a chart showing my progress over time and also to project ahead. That actually helped stop my spending to a great extent as I could see that overspending meant that I couldn't reach the goals I had set to pay things off.


    Good luck with your quest!

  • I have a daily cashflow which mimics the same idea. It's very helpful to see where we go wrong
