Well if you take in to account car insurance and lease finance, then about £15k.
Got 3 holidays and a proposal this year too so I'm surprised it's not higher. There may be some purchases on a CC in the next month or two
I've been in debt in the past, never massively, the most perhaps was around £20k. A friend of mine was in terrible debt, circa £30k I think and had just lost a job. Funny to think if he had told me at the time I could have helped him out of it fairly quickly, but then I guess if people keep bailing you out, you don't actually ever learn?
For those who might be struggling with debt, there's a great app in the applestore for mac (I assume maybe ipad and iphone too, not sure). It's called Debtinator. Fill in your details, your income, expenses and the debts you want to pay off and it gives you a structured payment plan and tells you, if you stick to it, when you'll be out of debt.
Ism't the saying:
"Buying things we don't need with money we don't have to impress people we don't actually like"
