Thinking about 2011 Goals

November 4th, 2010 at 07:02 pm

This post is just some of my thoughts about next years goals. Things are iffy since we could be moving. The income will stay the same. The expenses could change.

We will continue to save at least 15% towards retirement.
We will contribute to our daughters college funds.
We will pay off the van very early in 2011!!
We will pay a large percentage in cash for a new to us truck.
Then...we pay off the small loan on the truck. If there is one. Smile
And we will go on a couple's vacation and a family vacation with cash!
I will also look into converting some more rollover money to Roth Ira's.
I need to consider more to the emergency fund.
If we don't move, I need to look into refinancing or at least pay extra on the mortgage.

I'll round out all those goals out later with numbers.

    Thanks for the reminder! I have several financial things to look forward to in 2011, as well. Good luck with the NTY truck... I think that is a great way to go. Cheaper selling price, cheaper insurance, and often cheaper all around. I hope you find a great one.

    Those are great goals! I haven't really thought through my financial future in any organized way for next year. I do have a tentative budget, so maybe I'll add it up someday soon and see what 2011 looks like!

    I need to work on this, especially with me not working anymore.
