What would you do?
We are £17,000 in debt due to failed IVF .
DS has £1200 in the bank (not including interest) as I started saving £100 a month for him last year in a high interest account that I couldn't touch for a year.
It's now matured. Should I take the money out and clear some of the debt? It's all on 0% credit card and is manageable (at the moment).
The reason I'm thinking we should is because we want to move house so it looks better to have less debt.
Reason against is that even though I could save the money up again in the future, you never really do, do you? I already started late as I wanted to start saving from his birth and didn't start till he was 16 months so I already 'owe' him £1600 😂
