Looking Ahead - Our Financial Goals for 2007

Yes, it's that time of the year again - goal setting time! While 2006 was an okay year for us financially, we're hoping to make 2007 even better. Here's what we plan to set out to accomplish:

1. Increase our combined net worth by $32,000.

2. Contribute 50% of the maximum to our Roth IRAs.

3. Pay off all of our credit card debt by November 2007.

4. Come up with a retirement action plan that includes correct asset allocation, periodic re-balancing, and a re-assessing how much we're socking away.

5. Continue to make a payment to the student loans every two weeks, for an amount of half monthly minimum payment plus at least $100. That will ensure an extra $3000 is paid towards that debt.

6. Have more fun with the money that we have left over!

Have a happy and safe New Year's! We'll see you in 2007.
