July goal set

June 17th, 2008 at 04:41 pm

Lamest goal since I started this trek, might I add. Frown I'm just going to make sure I pay the usual minimum, so my goal is to pay off $1450 by July 31. (As I mentioned in an earlier post, I'm saving all the extra money I usually put toward debt for some upcoming leasing and management fees for our UK rental property.)

So, nothing too exciting. I'm just hoping this doesn't somehow sabotage my mental momentum. I'll keep looking toward August, when, if I'm lucky, I may be able to get my credit card debt under $50K and my home debt under $300K. Those will be exciting milestones, so I'll work extra hard to get there!

    You have done so great that one month of minimums won't derail you. You have worked to hard to lose faith that you can do this. Hang in there. If it helps, visualize August in your head and just consider July a "maintenance month". Smile

    Thank you! It really helps to put it all down onscreen and get feedback so I don't feel like I'm really backsliding here. Maintenance is much better than no progress at all. Smile

    So jealous about breaking 300k on mortgage. My mortgage is 344k. Oh well, I can dream (next year, it will be below 300k).

    I think we are in the same boat. we both were making excellent progress than POW. My wife just got a medical bill for $3,400 due in July. So I figured save it up and take a quick break. So my monthly goal will be like $1,200 this month.

    But on the bright side, I won't be stringing this out for months.

    These months are our heartbreak hills. Keep the focus Ceejay!!! I am with you.

    It doesn't sound lame to me!
