Just touching base with a small financial update.
still have just the one debt which is just back and forth negotiations for early settlement. Maybe it’s not the right thing to do but I’ve stopped paying it until we agree on a f&f (it already defaulted 2017 and no interest is being added)
Savings wise:
LISA 5039.57
Marcus 750
Going to start contributing to my LISA for this tax year next month and hopefully fully fund it by Jan 2021.
Also another win I’m happy about... my net worth has increased by 4134.58 since Jan 2020.

I think it’s because I am having shopping delivered so I have too long to browse & add stuff to my basket 😆 I will have to get back to shopping at Aldi0% credit card £1360 & 0% Car Loan £7500 ~ paid in full JAN 2020 = NOW DEBT FREE 🤗
