Thanks guys, my only remaining debt is the Barclaycard which I WILL have cleared by May!
It's taken me 12 years,
4 credit cards Barclaycards x 2 £9,000. Capital One £9,000 1st time £4,000 second time
1 store card - Argos £600
1 catalogue account- Next £700
3 loans £4,000 £5,000 and £3,000
bailed out by Dad £2000
to get rid of all the above.
It CAN be done guys!!!
The only thing I now owe other than the mortgage (Which I'm going to start overpaying once I'm totally debt free)is the Barclaycard balance.
A giant millstone has been lifted.
...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -
