The Secret DFW Diary of Eamd Aged 13¾

embarrassed_about_my_debt

Morning all,

Thanks Dragon. My gf is fantastic and doesnt mind if i get them. To put a value on them if i was to buy them now and sell them on flea bay i could probably get £1k for them without any problem. That is what makes it so hard, they are as new and is something i've wanted since buying my car.

It isnt a necessary part & yes it would be to modify my car but i can recoup most of the money in selling old parts i have (approx £500) so in theory it would only be £200 but

a) there are no guarantees i'll get that much.
b) i feel guilty buying things for car when i told the gf i couldnt afford to go on holiday (even although she said she doesnt mind if i get them).

Really dont know

Morning all,

Not alot to report really, havent been out this week so saved that money, but got an expensive weekend coming up so was thinking i'll probably keep some for that and the rest will go towards my service on my car which is due anytime now (must book that)

Im so close to paying off 50% of my debt, i think that will be a major boost! Also im now over the 75% mark in the pay off £8k in a year. Just wish i'd started sooner, could have nearly paid it all off by now. ISnt hindsight a wonderful thing :roll:

How is everyone? and who fancies a :coffee:

Will pop in and have a read!

I know what you mean, im 26 and in the same boat.

Want house etc with the gf and then the w word after that.

Hey all,

Got a hectic weekend planned :beer:

Tonight a late one with mates, tomorrow a party again late one. Had to get some bits but that only came to about £30 of which left over money from last week has been used. Will need somemore tonight which will mean another £20 and then the other £50 will go to my car service :rolleyes:

Gonna make my over payment monday just to make sure everything is right after the weekend. Should be the whole £170 this week which is good as it hasnt been for the last couple

What has everyone else got planned for the weekend?
