My yearly tradition.

1) Get set up with Mint.com or similar.

2) No more Starbucks. It's expensive and fattening.

3) I rolled my retirement from stocks to a MMA last Spring, thinking the market was going to crater going into the election. That hasn't happened, yet, and I need to get back in at some point. Thinking I should start rolling back in this Fall, with the plan to be back to 100% by X-mas.

1) Expand my budget spreadsheet for better data analysis

2) Spend more time and money on retirement investing.

3) Learn more about ways to save on taxes. Invest more in tax deductible accounts that I have such as retirement and contributions to my alma mater.

4) Organize old collections and grow them as needed. I have picked up coin collecting over the last 5 months and I wish to grow it.

5) Cut down on unnecessary expenses such as eating out.

6) Continue to develop and grow at my company for a good pay raise and quarterly bonuses.

1) Really work to build emergency/vacation fund. Dwindled at the end of the year and I would like to build it to a nice amount.

2) Pay off wife's car and use money saved each month to save for new one.

3) Make extra payment toward the house.

I will continue making weekly deposits to Savings and expand my 401K contributions so I do not really count that.

1) Get a job.

2) Save 2k a month for as long as we possibly can once I get a job.

3) Automate savings for my wife and I.
