Travel // Last year, I got to travel a ton - Ireland, England, Chicago, Miami, Chicago again. It was amazing, and I definitely want to keep it up. So far next year, I have two trips to Nashville booked (February for fun, May for brother's graduation) and a trip to London (!!!!!!!!) in August. My goal for this year is to add in at least two more trips - one to Canada and one to a state I've never visited.
Financial // Generally, I'm pretty good with money. I don't spend what I don't have, and my debts are limited to the unavoidable - car and student loans. The last 3 or so months of 2015, however, I started to feel like my spending wasn't really lining up with my goals, and that I could be a lot smarter about where my money was going. After crunching some numbers, I realized that I could be debt-free in less than 3 years, if I stopped spending so much at J Crew... This year, I am limiting clothing etc shopping to 500 dollars every 3 months (so 2000 per year) and starting to ramp up payments on my student loans.
Good luck with the accelerated debt repayment!

ReplyDeleteWe picked the same budget - seems to be a popular amount - hopefully because it works for us all!! :) Good luck!
