Sorted out nearly all the money...

So after getting a loan (very large loan) from the bank of boytoys parents plus the saving money that boytoy already had (again good size), we are in better shape than ever to buy plus we can get a small mortgage of 35/40 depending how much we get this flat for so it's all looking pretty good, we went into town today to put in a bigger offer but just our luck the guy selling it is on holiday for 2 weeks!!

When we got home we found out boytoy has been paying into a pension for 4/5 years so that is wicked, oh and he has shares so we have about £3,000 for rainy day money...  I have in shares about £400/500 and in save as your earn er £120?

So we are opening a rainy day money savings account just to put £20 in a month then add the share money when we need it, also opening a wedding fund account we have about £200 to put in it already but we are hoping to save about £1,500... not alot as my rents are paying for my dress and bridemaids dresses, boytoy mum is paying for his suit and his usher/best man, we are getting married in Greece so everyone is paying for thier own flights and hotel, so it's all pretty good!

Now I just need to find cheaper car insurance (we are selling one of the cars so hopefully get £5,000), life insurance and home insurance then sort out wills and whatnot =)

I am in a really good mood!!! YAY!

  2. I'm glad things are looking good for you financially. We're at the other end so we'd totally love to be where you are right now.
