    I’ll tell you what @st182 you aren’t half doing well with the chunky PADs you keep making. That must be making a real difference to your financial position 💪

    Thanks bud. I have a habit of putting irons in the fire (IE regular savers, bonds, share plans etc) in order to pay off future debt but end up spending instead of reducing debt.

    Once I had the missus' finances "in line" (now down to 22 managable cc's from 4) ive been battering the debt on my accounts. I do have two sizeable loans- but once i clear the credit cards away (only one left, had 4 at the start of the year) i'll concentrate on those! not far to go now.

    This thread has most definitely convinced me to do the right thing each time I have excess or a bond matures etc- so i've everyone on here to thank- thank you all! 😘
