  • I haven't been very active on the challenges lately, although I have still been trying to make inroads towards the debt. Motivated by @Jrcoal5 I have that joining in again may push me that little more.

    I signed up for £12,000 in January, which is only a fraction of my debt. I'm pleased to say 

    #6 £8,435.17/ £12,000
    Total debt when my journey began in December 2022- £66,133.42
    Current debt May 2024- £40,064.57
    Repaid 39.42%
