Now 13 days without a gamble so thought I would try to look at money.
Downloaded an app and have spent most of the weekend recording everything we are going to spend over the next 12 months.
Shocked or what!!. To the point of HOW MUCH!!!!!!!!!!. We do have money spare at the end of each month instead of me investing it in FOBT's. Might not be a lot but it's something. Even managed to put something into savings!!!
Stepchange really halpful and I have a fixed amount to pay to clear debt. 5 years to go.
No access to money as wife has cards. Bit shameful asking for pocket money and having to provide receipts but really that is a small price to pay.
Have a good week all
Hi Balvaird,
Congratulations on your 13 days without gambling!
You are doing really well by the sound of it. I'm glad that you found stepchange helpful with managing your debts and money going forward. As you say, it is a small price to pay and a lot to gain along the way!
All the best, keep going!
Gabriele
