I'm still going to be putting some cash aside, but there maybe something brewing work-wise (whisperings of redundancies).So I'm not actually going to pay it onto the mortgage just yet (in case I need ready funds) but I am still going to pretend the money isn't available to me. If things calm down in a month or two, I'll lob the pot at the mortgage then.2

Thank you. I've had a chat with the bf, and if it comes to it we should be able to almost scrape by on just his wage.
So at least the mortgage & bills will be paid. I'd need to pick up something (anything) asap to make us more comfortable, but I'm less stressed knowing we'll at least survive with a few sacrifices if it comes to it.

I can't believe we're on update number 10 of 12 already! I've just updated the sheet, thanks so much to everyone who has submitted an update. I'll check back in in a few days though, to give others time to submit theirs too2

Same for me too, if you go back to an earlier update post from @julicorn and click on that link for the update sheet you can then slide along to the most recent one - hope that makes sense 🤞😂MFiT-T7 #17 (Jan 2025) £193k (Apr) £177k (July) £
