Hi all. First post. Not sure how all this works but I'm here as I've been doing the overpaying thing for a couple of years now at least and want to keep it going. I've maxed out the 10% twice and am on track to this financial year (touch wood).0

Post how much you aim to overpay this year and pawlala will give you a MFW number. When you make an overpayment, post it with your number and you'll be entered on the spreadsheet (see link in post at the top of the page) to keep track of how you're doing.I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living.

Hiddenshadow - wishing you a speedy recovery and thanks for keeping me on track so far this year :A
Many thanks to Pawlala for picking this up and updating so quickly.
#169 reporting an additional payment of £653.72 for July making the total for the month £1,190.90 and the total so far this year £8,164.16/£12,000I'm with the addictive ones of you - hard not to plough everything in but I have a contingency fund building up so hopefully next year I can increase my overpayments more. Too risky at present as there is only my job in the household. :eek::eek:
