    Only £1,176 standard loan repayments (but in my defence I get better interest from matched betting than overpaying) but I wouldnt be able to carry my nerd badge (even if it is a little dusty) without joining in :)

    Total repaid £376,021.35

    I had about 13k of debt when I found MSE. After reading a few of the horror stories, especially on the bankruptcy sub-board I realised what a tightrope I was walking. I decided to sort myself out financially, and followed a dream I had had for a long time, which was to start my own business.

    Just less than a year later and I'm debt free and I've paid 43k off my mortgage and my business has made 130k. What a kick up the !!!!! MSE has been for me!!

    Edit: oops, sorry Snags!! Forgot that bit:
