Just a mega quick update as at at work today...yawn! Can't wait till training tomorrow...it is sooooo depressing in here!
Ebay bits sold for just over £150! Not including postageThat's awesome! I have a couple more things which finish on Wednesday and should hopefully bag me an extra £20/£25 quid or so so am gonna wait till then before I transfer the paypal money! Can't wait, should be able £175 ready to pay to the card...get in
Was meant to list a few bits last night but after cooking the roast and sorting myself out for work / Em's school etc, I didn't have time. Will try and add them later this evening...hope so. Nice to free up a bit of room tooLike clutter central at my house recently!

If I was you I wouldnt get into debt in the first place then you have nothing to worry about. People in debt really only have themselves to blame.
Whatever, you bore...find something interesting to do, you are obviously sad and lonely but if you put effort in you could turn that around.
Most people on these boards who are in debt are doing just that, putting effort in and improving their lives instead of spending valuable time being bitter unlike yourself :rolleyes:
Your post was totally unnecessary and uncalled for especially on a thread of someone who is trying extremely hard to repay that debt!0 -
Im not in debt at all, in fact far from it. Im just giving my opinion, people should stop looking for a quick fix and get a job. And stop spending so much money on things they dont need. Really, it is quite simple.
I didn't suggest you were in debt? I suggested you get a life instead of condemning people, especially when your facts are wrong? This ladies who's thread this is works fulltime and is paying back all her debt faster than need be? So why your comment on this thread?0 -

If you are not in debt then you are in the wrong place as this is a DFW board.
Noboby is looking for a quick fix.
Are you a life coach?

People should take the time to assess what they buy and decide if they really need it. If you have limited funds or are in debt you should not spend unnecisarily. Whoever is in debt had bad money management in the first place therefore only have themselves to blame. Im glad they are in debt if it teaches them one of lifes lessons on being greedy.

Donner don't even worry about this posterThey have nothing of the valuable things in life that they really need ie compassion, care, empathy, kindness, understanding, patience or any other qualities of a good person so he/she can keep her fantastic money management and shove it coz I'd rather have so much more in my life than that
Donner you are :A0 -

Get down from your high horse.
I really hope you never find yourself in debt.
But I will say what goes round comes round & I personally think you have no right to be so judgemental.I am a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Mortgage Free Wannabe & Local Money Saving Scotland & Disability Money Matters.
