Ive got :
Mortgage - not really debt, most people one!
Student loan - not really debt, most people have one!
Small loan to pay my car up instead of paying outright....I prefer to keep money in my bank account than clear it out!
3yrs 0% on a Sofa - not an issue!!
Overall pretty good I think!?

No debt, £3k in the bank for a rainy day/stupid idea.
I was always taught to work hard and save for what i wanted.

Owe about £2k for the rest of my car, but I have triple that in the bank (the finance was 0% so no point paying it back). Thats all I have.
Hoping to get a mortgage in the next 18 months, but don't see that as bad debt. If I had any credit card debts I'd be worried, but always pay mine off in full.

Just under 7k loan, got my car up for sale though and once I have bought a cheaper car hopefully only owe about 3k which I think is acceptable.
Go no credit cards 
Anyone after an S3

The only debt I have is my student loan, which as mentioned, isn't a real debt.
If I start on £18k and pay off about £250 in the first year, I'm not really bothered 
I don't have any credit card debts, overdrafts or anything, which isn't bad for a student. One of my mates mates at Uni lives off his overdraft from year to year I couldn't do that.
No doubt I'll have a mortgage and possibly car finance debt in the future, but they're the only debts I will have.
I believe in saving for what I want etc.
My other debt is a mountain of gratitude for my parents though

I'm £2k in debt but that's 'cus I was in hospital for months with no pay. I just used the overdraft up and now I'm struggling to clear it as the R6 is taking up quite a bit of dollar! New gearbox this weekend too. 
It'll be gone soon -- I'm not one for debt.
