Hey,
Hope you all had a good Saturday, mine was spent sleeping for a few hours, then the footie with the boys and a final hour sleep before coming to work which means 1 very tired me haha.
So i am just over two months into my journey and by the end of this month i should have paid over £1000 off my debt which was not something i thought would happen so quick. As well as this i have managed to change my whole approach to money, i never thought about saving before or the ' future' but now i know i need to be thinking about this.
I have always just paid my annual bills by direct debit and never thought how much i would save. Its now a target to ensure i am in a position to do this by renewals next year, as this will make a huge impact on monthly outgoings
Its incredible to think how far i have come in such a short time, but i know there are still massive areas to improve/save on.
Thank you to everyone that has offered advice/encouraged and followed my journey so far here is to the next month in my journey.0 -

Thank you. I am in the early stages which is a scary thing to admit as this is in my view something that should be pinned down early, however my mindset now is changing and I am starting to see certain benefits of having savings and been able to pay off in 1 go. I think if I can get to debt free in a year from now it would take some going but I am hopeful
