Now What...

ROTFIL_2

Hello Everyone, I looked in-depth at Money Savings Expert some two years ago and followed everything this site suggested. I also bought several books telling you to save this and that.

So I went out and got the highest interest ISA, The free £100 Halifax High interest Account, sold stuff on eBay, do all online surveys, a full time well paid job and saved and skimped on absolutely everything and as a result a I managed to dig myself out of dept and then I started to build up a rather nice amount of cash (£20,000 – Distributed between several High interest Accounts, ISA’s and Shares) … :T
Fantastic you say but basically now what?

I think I now need Money Making Expert? Any ideas on how to increase my income (I am not aloud a second job thanks to my current work contract).

Thanks for any ideas,
James

Sorry, no advice to offer, but just wanted to say well done on getting yourself out of debt and starting on the saving path.

Any Tips Martin?

Hi Rotfil and welcome.

Congratulations on beating your debt and being able to save a nice cushion of savings.

Sorry but I don't have any answers either. I guess it's just that I have no idea when I will be out of debt and have a wad behind me so I don't even dare to think about that time just in case it never comes. In my experience, once I have my debts under control something unexpected happens like car breaks down and is beyond repair or my oven or something I haven't been able to budget for!

I think other people have moved on to paying off their mortgage earlier after paying off debts, maybe if you post on the Mortgage Free Wannabe thread you might get some ideas.

Maybe there's a market for some kind of therapy for this type of thing! lol

Whatever you decide to do good luck with it.

Write a book about how you did it - should earn you a fortune if you can get it published!
