FREEDOM!
 
Today I will finally pay off my dues and a bank in Dubai will leave me alone (insha'allah).

It will be. Debt free in the UK for the first time in 5 years.

Good feeling mixed with frustration at being a twat with money for so long!!

Auntie Meow says once you have paid off the debt, you can put the same amount into savings each month and get on the right track.

No. Save it.

When I save enough I can buy a Range Rover.

I mean. House in England. :(

Sounds like a plan. I save up for things now rather than buy them on tick.

Spending money you have is not as bad as spending money you don't have.
