A little behind... but May Stats

June 5th, 2008 at 07:29 pm

I'm a little late on end of May. However I've been in California visiting family for the past week and I'm here until next week. The nice thing is that I've been to California a bunch of times, so I don't feel the need to buy a lot of things, so just good time with the family.

Anyway, here is the rundown (note this also includes my last paycheck that was posted yesterday)

Savings #1 - $11,140 (goal: 15,000 ---- 74.27% to goal)
Savings #2 – $1,725 (goal: 2,500 ---- 69.00% to goal)
Savings #3 - $700 ($50 less than mid-may - $50 towards a little spending money for my trip) (goal: 2,000 ---- 35% to goal)

Roth IRA – $1,500
401K: $760
Brokerage Account - $75
Employee Stock Plan: $420

Debt:
Credit Cards (4): $500
Student Loans: $15,326 (June & July’s pymt in Checking)

From April to May
Savings #1 = + $327
Savings #2 = + $156
Savings #3 = - $179
Roth IRA = + $0
401K = + $382
Brokerage Account = +$75
Employee Stock Plan $102

My savings for the month of May = $863

I was thinking this number is unusually high. Then I realized that it’s overstated because I included the first paycheck for June. Oops. Well that just means that June’s number will be lower in the end as far as increases in savings. It will all balance out in the end. May’s should be around $250-300 less. But hey that’s still a good number for me, considering I’m only working part-time. Thank goodness for time-and-a-half and holiday pay for Memorial Day.
When I get back from California, serious job hunt time!!! Then maybe I can get my savings up higher!!! That makes me happy! Smile

    Great job!!! Only thing I would do is pay off the credit card in total and maybe up my retirement contribution. But other then that, your doing great.
