Just chatting through a different thread and someone told me to focus on my dreams:
My dream includes earning £23-£27k per year. Maybe 2-3 years time?
Having another beautiful baby. Pref a boy. Again in 2-3 years time.
Having a renault megane scenic or Peugeot 308 cc. (I know which one is more practical he he) 5-8 years away
Having a nice 4 bedroomed house out the way of my family, with all my debts cleared and only the company of my husband and the 3 kids. 10 years away.
And most importantly of all, being happy and financially secure.
What about everyone else. What are your dreams and aspirations?
