Buffy's 30 Month Plan

Posts: 18,924 Forumite
Hello All,
I have been here for a really time, got out of debt twice and then got in debt again! It is like a hobby.........a really crap limiting unsatisfying hobby!
Currently I am 4841 pounds in debt, don't own a house and have about 1000 across very various accounts for insurance, Christmas, the Summer etc.
In thirty months I aim to have paid off the debt, have 10,000 saved up - some in a help to buy ISA (6000) and some in various saving accounts.
Ideally I will have more savings, but the 30 months is effectively 200 for the debt and 200 for the house, the debt will be paid off before that and then that gets saved somewhere.
This will be achieved by August the 25th 2021.
Well.
That is it. There is the plan.
Love Buffy XXX

Thanks Beanie, XXX Lets hope so. I have started a book called Atomic Habits which is a very good read so far.
Am not feeling miraculously better or anything. But I can carry on feeling like this with a plan.

Yep. Clear and straightforward. Also doesn't preclude changing jobs which given today's experience I am very happy about.

Good goals Buffy - you've got the what and the when but you need the 'how'. Once that is in place you will be unstoppable!
