Musings about personal finance, real estate investing, life in South Florida, historic house projects, Snarfle the dog and anything else that strikes my fancy.

2012 Savings Goal - Mid November Update
(1) Max out 401k(s) - $32,036 (94%)(goal is $34,000)
(2) Max out IRA(s) - $7,829 (78%)(goal is $10,000)
(3) Add to e/r fund - $8,800 (88%)(goal is $10,000)
(4) Pay down mortgage - $2490 (50%)(goal is $5,000)
(4)(a) Savings for goal (4) - $830
(5) House projects - $1,200 (26%)(goal is $5,000)
(6) Trading account fund - $50 (1%)(goal is $5,000)
Total - $53,335 (76%)
I plan to update our 2012 goals every two weeks or so until the end of the year to help me stay focused. At present, we are about $7,700 behind on our goals.
While I don't think we will be able to meet our 2012 goal of saving $69,000 I am hoping (and planning) to completed goals 1-4 and to surpass the amount we saved last year which was $60,060.
