Its been awhile since my last update.
Since we started this financial fast the stats look like this
Credit card: Was - $3,659.84 Now - $0.00 = Paid off $3,659.84
Personal loan: Was - $36,927.63 Now - $33,000 = Paid off $3,927.63
Total paid off in 3 months $7,587.47
Thats not a bad effort really considering we have had a few big spends crop up (rego/insurance/car repair/fines/etc).
Ive just worked out that if we keep going with what we are doing then we will be debt free in about 19 months.
I was really hoping that we would get almost completely debt free by the 12mth mark, but that wont happen. We will be a whole lot closer to debt free than we are now, so that is something.
We have relaxed the rules a bit since the credit card got paid off. Some meals have been bought, some movies have been seen.
Maybe if we had a proper fast for 2 months then relaxed a bit for the 3rd we would do better money wise? Its bloody hard work to keep your head in the game the entire time.
Something to ponder.
