New year, new me. Man how many times have I said that to myself. Looking back, 2010 was a blessing. To recap:

So this is where we end and where I start off with bills. My car is already paid for, however, I moved out. I still need to figure out a budget that will work for me. So far it will start off as

Savings $100
Rent $450
CC/Loans $300 - 400
Phone $260*


TOTAL: $1210

At that rate with CC I will pay it off in 22423.05/300 = 74months or 6-7 years. Not going to happen. My goal will be paying off the CC in 2 years MAX. Agressively paying at $420/mo. NOT gonna happen at this time. My plans for now are... paying off the smaller balances then snowballing for the month of January.


Ok im blabbing too much. For the week of Jan 1-13

Gas $100
