I Reduced My Mortgage By 15k And Saved 30kI Raised My 15k (Plus More) to complete my “15k project” a while ago, 10th September to be precise, but as already mentioned, I’ve been unsure about what to do with the funds. I wasn’t sure whether to invest more money into another property, or do as initially planned, which was to use that 15k to […]

Property Diary- Project 2- Reduce Mortgage
I’m proud of this category because it contains the blog posts to my second documented property investment project. I go through every step I took to raise 15k, carrying with me the intentions of buying another buy-to-let investment.

I Just Sold The Love Of My LifeI’m feeling quite unsettled right now; I just had to part from the love of my life (Peugeot 206 1.4 GLX). It’s not uncommon for people to get attached to their first car; the sentimental relationship is sometimes unavoidable, unless it’s a complete piece of shit. I’m feeling the pain!

Web-designingFor those unaware, I’m actually a full-time web-developer, so I know a thing or two about building websites. I usually get a few people asking me to indulge myself in freelancing now and again, but I usually pass up on the offers because I spend 5 days a week, 9am-5pm working on websites, and the […]

Results From Selling Shit On EbaySo, its been just over 7 days since I put up random pieces of crap for auction on Ebay, in attempt to raise money for My New Property Investment Project. I predicted I would raise close to a few hundred pounds from Selling Shit On Ebay; of course, I thought I was being heavily optimistic.

Online affiliate marketingI received a few cheques through the post today from various affiliate schemes I signed up for. For those unaware, an online affiliate is basically someone that advertises for other companies online, and gets paid on commission for every successful conversion. Exciting, huh? I don’t do much online advertising these days (not that I did much before, but I do […]

Counting The Pounds- Raiding The PiggybankI know the traditional expression is, “counting the pennies”, but I’m not about to go around my house and/or the streets hunting for every penny in my reach. However, like most people, I do have a pot of change that has been the disposal vessel for all the loose coins that has accumulated in my […]
