Yes, I think I did...
The other saying I picked up somewhere is
"When trying to eat an elephant, take one bite at a time.." - very suitable for what appears to be an unsurmountable task...like paying off a DMP! DFW'er - Lightbulb moment : 31st July 2009 - £18,499

Hello all great sayings i like them i have re done my spreadsheet for the 100th time, i wont bore you all with the ramble but i will be dedicating an extra 500 permonth to the negative wealth from january and if i have any extra or the month end closes with extra money it will be put into the pot..... however i find myself wearing the rose coloured glasses at time and i need to create something thats realistic or you find yourself falling before you have begun so heres to 2013 and fresh overpayments amen xx I AM A MONEY MAGNET, THEY ARE MAKING MORE MONEY FOR ME AS WE SPEAK:pMIKES MOB, DFW NERD 1071, DFW LHS 132!MIRACLES HAPPEN I'VE SEEN IT WITH MY OWN EYES.
