Another budgeting, saving, extra payments to the student loan and putting my finances on autopilot. Not only did my net worth increase, it increased by more than 5%!


March Goals (end of month review)

  1. Create $800 in additional income - Fell short by $123, I didn’t even list my mountain bike on Craigslist. Whoops.
  2. Only spend $100 in groceries - Let’s not talk about this….
  3. Pay an additional $100 towards the principal of my student loan. - Knocked $132.14 off the principal balance of the repayable loans!

April Goals

  1. Create $900 in additional income - With Advanced Placement exams upon us, my tutoring income should exceed this.
  2. Spend $100 in groceries - Extremely aggressive, I’m traveling the next two weekends and my training volume is increasing exponentially.
  3. $300 in Roth Contributions - With $900 in additional income, I’d better be able to make this happen.

April will be a wonderful month.

    Best wishes this month! What’s the story on the credit card debt? Is it at 0% or something?

    It’s just the balance for this month. I had put a purchase for a family member and have already been reimbursed so I’m trying a little float this month with my ING Direct.
