Martin's Debt Costs Masterclass

So as it's January, we're in a cost of living crunch, and New Year debt bills are being received by millions, it's time for my annual interest-cutting masterclass. My aim's to show you how to save £100s or even £1,000s by reducing the interest you're paying.

Read the full story here:

    For free, non-judgemental debt advice, try: Stepchange or National Debtline. Beware fee charging companies with similar names.

    Surely one aim should be to teach people to prepare for annual and non regular bills.  Paying off and then rebuilding debt is never the answer.  

    Paid off the last of my unsecured debts in 2016. Then saved up and bought a property. Current aim is to pay off my mortgage as early as possible. Currently over paying every month. Mortgage due to be paid off in 2036 hoping to get it paid off much earlier. Set up my own bespoke spreadsheet to manage my money.
