Hello!
I just paid just under £850 off the Credit card, I have £25 DD to pay on the 14th and then that is it - totally debt free and money in the bank.
I have learned so much over the last 2 years, and 2 months and I feel very positive that I have a way forward, and not just financially.
I will be starting a new diary on the Mortgage Free wannabee in the next few days - I will be saving for the deposit to be a mortgage free wannabe. Hope to buy something next year.
The obstacle really is the path.3-month emergency fund (Cash ISA & PBs): £4744/ £6,000
Stocks and shares ISA: £1497

Overpayment on mortgage: £0
