Yep, it will start going into savings for fun things and rainy daysTripleH said:Well done. I don't want to be negative, but what is your plan when you've finished paying off the debts?I would suggest saving up to do something nice in the near future.Clearing the debt is part of the journey, making sure you don't get back in that position is the other half.
I'm confident I've addressed the issues that caused me to get into this position in the first place, I don't need the pain, stress and sleepless nights of debt again. I've worked so hard to rectify mistakes 1 -
