Hi just made my last payment on credit cards, been encouraged by the stories over here. I don't say much but thank you all the positivity and prayers! has really helped me.
Now going back over to the 3 to 6 month emergency fund board to recommence my E F!.
Im glad i was on my self imposed plan to pay the debt off before the 0% ended as i received a text from my credit card company to advise that my interest rate would be going up to an eye watering 57.20%!
I know its hard, but keep going. Its really worth it x6 -
Well done @FreedomBringsPeace, what a feeling that must be! Good luck with your 3-6 month fund

@hazeldreams you can do it, even those who don't make it by this Christmas are setting themselves up for a much brighter new year.
@welshspendthrift yes i assign every pound and it has a job. I have an app called spending tracker where we ensure every pound has a job. The pennies mount up. Id say that and cash stuffing has helped me more than any other approach. Theres something about Dave Ramsey that made sense to me for steps 1 to 3 especially. Im also throwing change in an empty 5 litre water bottle i only have a few pounds but hope i can do better in 2023.
Thank you for celebrating with me x2 -
