1. Fund a $1,000 emergency fund - ACCOMPLISHED I was able to meet this goal by pairing down my expenses and funneling any extra money into a high-interest savings account.
2. Pay off my credit cards - IN PROGRESS I didn't reach this goal. However, I am very excited and pleased with my progress - as of today, my credit card debt is $2,742.00. I've paid off all but 1 card!!!! And my debt has been reduced from $7,986.22! I've paid off a total of $5,243.22! Even though I didn't meet my goal, I have significant progress towards it! I'm so encouraged. I'll have the rest of it paid off by March.
3. Pay off medical bills - ACCOMPLISHED Unfortunately I didn't write down the total amount of past due medical bills. I know I had three bills and I'd estimate the total was between $600 and $800. I set up payment plans with each provider, and stuck to my set payment amount of $50.00 until the bills were paid in full around August of 2008. YAY!
I'm very pleased with the progress I made towards reaching my goals for 2008. My goals for 2009? Planning a wedding and finding a job!
