1. Get a "new" car. New to me, anyway. My poor car. I bought it brand new when I was 18. My first big purchase! So I have had it for a few years ::wink wink::. It is time to invest in something else...with four doors. I have another year of rear-facing my son in his car seat. Two doors do not bode well with that. K is my car buddy. We deserve something fresh and "new". I already have my eye on a car, so this goal could be met very soon. And I am excited!
2. Have a decent amount of money sacked away for a house. This one I am really excited about. Thankfully my parents are on board with me regarding this goal, and are being very welcoming with their home. I am very grateful that I will not be putting my hard-earned money into rent. K and I will have a house that will be our home. For that, I am motivated.
3. Get inducted into an honor society. This is a personal goal. If I keep it up I can reach this goal in June. I have 3 years of school left so I will have to keep working hard to maintain my GPA after/should I get inducted. For that, I am motivated.
4. Be money smart. This isn't really a goal; it is more of a mindset that will help me achieve my other goals. I think about all of those coupons that expired and laid dying in the bottom of my purse, and I realize, it actually does add up. So throughout the year I will be aware of my spending. I will pay cash for gas, use coupons, pack a lunch for work, buy in bulk, etc. All of the little things will help me gain a large thing. If you have any ideas that can help me cut unnecessary spending, feel free to leave them in the comments! I am always open to suggestions.
Happy New Year and good luck with your resolutions!!!!
