One check a month
August 5th, 2016 at 07:51 pmI think I may purchase the car I am currently leasing so I have a year left to save to do a hefty down-payment.
I have been plotting to save one of my checks each month but so far it hasn't gone well. The first month it went to a repair for a household item and credit card debt from house stuff purchases and a little eating out.
This month it's going to the credit card again for an forgotten annual expense, credit card purchases (for the house) and entertaining some visiting family.
I am hoping next month I really really am able to get it down to pay off my damn credit card balance and to put something toward the car. I think I may just bite the bullet and pull out $100 from these checks for house stuff (tools, repairs etc) and let then I'll put the rest to debt. That way I won't feel so pressured out kind of thing. I guess we'll see how it goes.
