When I shared the brilliant news that we were finally debt free a few months ago, I got so many comments and emails from as well as messages on social media congratulating me which was lovely. Your messages were lovely to read and really made me smile but I also got a few messages from people saying they just couldn't see themselves ever getting to where we were, telling me that there was just no light at the end of the tunnel.I completely understand where these people were coming from because I've been there. I've been at the point where it feels like the debt will just always be … [Read more...]

Life after debt – our journey to becoming debt free….
I don't think there's been a time in my adult life that I've not had some sort of debt in my name - be it a credit card, car loan or a consolidation loan. This month though, the last of our debt was paid off and aside from our mortgage, we are now officially debt free.I got my first credit card when I was 18 and over the next few years, I added to that one with a couple of store cards and several more credit cards. They were all paid off with a consolidation loan that I then took out but rather than closing them, I promised myself that I'd only use them for emergencies but you can … [Read more...]
