| Goals for April:
1.)Pay off last of credit card debt. --**DID IT!!**--
2.)Replenish "Baby Step 1" emergency savings account with tax refund. --**ALMOST THERE, NEED $125 MORE**--
3.) Fund targeted savings accounts (home/car maintenance, & emergency) with $50 and $75 bi-weekly automatically from payroll. --**DID IT!! NICE TO SEE SOME SAVINGS ADDING UP**--
4.) Increase 401(k) allotment to total maximum contribution limit of $16,500 by the end of the year. The march towards debt freedom continues, but I need that tax shelter! (sorry Dave!)
--**DID IT. HAVE ADJUSTED TO THE AMOUNT OF MY NEW BI-WEEKLY PAY CHECK. DON'T WANT TO END UP IN RETIREMENT WITH NO MONEY LIKE SOME FAMILY MEMBERS I HAVE.**--
5.) Request overtime and re-advertise to replace my departing roommate. --**GOT THE OVERTIME WHICH IS GREAT, STILL WAITING FOR ROOMIE #2 TO MOVE OUT NEXT WEEK, i WILL RE-ADVERTISE AFTER THAT.**--
GOALS FOR MAY:
1.) MOVE DEBT SNOWBALL ONTO STUDENT LOANS (THE SNOWBALL IS SMALLER DUE TO MY NEW RETIREMENT AND TARGETED SAVINGS ALLOCATIONS, HOWEVER, I WILL BE LOOKING FOR WAYS TO ADD NEW INCOME SO THAT I CAN BUILD IT UP AGAIN). REPLACING MY 2ND ROOMMATE WOULD BE A HUGE HELP.
2.) ADVERTISE TO REPLACE ROOMMATE #2.
3.) KEEP WORKING OVERTIME.
April was a good month!
