I’ve been so preoccupied with playing nurse over the last few days, that a date I’d been waiting to celebrate for the last five years went by almost un-noticed.
That date was the 6th November and it marked the last installment of a hefty loan I had taken out to consolidate my credit card debts - and then like the true idiot I am, ran them all back up to their limit again.
In all honesty, I don’t know what I was expecting when that final payment was made.
A card from the bank congratulating me on my flawless repayment record?
A balloon in a box bearing the message “Well Done Debtor”?
A fly past from the Red Arrows?
None of those things happened, but I did give myself a little pat on the back and put the past five years of paying over £350 a month to that loan down as a lesson learned.
A very long and expensive lesson...

You can get a big WELL DONE from me on your flawless repayment record :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you! That means a lot more to me than a card from the bank.
