First Step...

April 18th, 2006 at 04:28 am

...or should I say steps?

I started a new savings account today. It will begin with a monthly automatic deposit of $10.00. Not much but it's a start. When and if I get a cost of living raise I'll adjust the deposit amount. This account is in addition to the one I have at my credit union that has a $50.00 monthly deposit made to it.

I started a new change jar. I have saved my change for years but I wanted a new jar so I could keep track of what I put in it each week.

I'll be changing my Netflix membership to the lowest package. One DVD at a time is enough for me, plus I'll probably be better at watching them when they come if I only have one in the house at a time.

My goal is to be debt free in two years and save enough to pay cash for a trip abroad I've been wanting to take.
