yesh consolidate joor loans with a finance company over a longer period of time thus reducing your monthly payments, borrow a little extra in addition to your consolidation amount and use the rest on a CRX.

This time last year I had £15.5k worth of debt so it's coming dwon

Paul I think I might do that mate, just gonna see whether it's worth it, i don't want to be paying this debt off for ever

I think my dad might give me some more wedge soon to pay off one of them so i might wait for a bit

And If I got a crx del-sol or a punto gt or civic vti i'd keep it for a few years like

Don't get a credit card. It all started about 3-4 years ago when I got a £1k loan and I kept consolidating to get a bigger one and look at the mess I'm in now. I've got loads of clothes, shoes, video camera, tv, dvd/vcr, been on holidays to the Dominican Republic, benidorm, Crete. Weekends away to Blackpool, Newcastle. Oh and my car.
