As I mentioned earlier, Sonia and I sat down and wrote out our goals. Here are mine:
- Create another source of income independent from my current employer
- Continue to do communication exercises with my wife
- Learn a new skill / take a class
- Start exercising
- Create a financial plan that will guide me (and my family) in building wealth including worst-case scenario
Since January, I have committed to spending less money, opened an investment account at Charles Schwab (I don’t have enough for Vanguard’s minimums - yet), increased my 401k to 13% of my salary, started an automatic savings plan with ING, mapped out a way to eliminate my debt by the end of the year, started reading many personal finance blogs (see blogroll), and most recently, started A Path Together.
These goals were set after writing down our values. Do you think they are compatible? What are your goals and what have you done in the last 48 hours to help reach them?
