| 401(k) had an OK month. Current contribution % at 10%.
Planning to open a Roth IRA in January. Company stopped doing a company match.
Debt I have not added:
Been paying parents life insurance loan. Down to $2,200 owed.
Other debts: Paid wife $250 borrow from our joint account. Still owe another $2000.
Closed my brick-and-mortar savings account and opened one online with ING Direct.
Since I have been tracking my net worth, it has grown over $11,000 in the last 8 months.
Current Strategy:
1. Use my credit card for all purchases and pay it all off at the end of the month. Accrues cashback.
2. Pay $300 to my student loan. The interest rate is only @ 2.625% but that's still over $30.00 in interest a month wasted.
3. Save at least $200 month.
