While new year resolutions are on my list of things to do, I have set a 52 week financial goal for my family as well. As your mama always told you, ” Money doesn’t grow on trees”. (darn it!) Therefore, we know that we must save to one day retire and still be able to travel and eat (DanielBabe LOVES to eat). I’ve taken some time to consider our financial situation and have put together a plan for us. I’m hoping you will do the same for you and your family.
This challenge is similar to others that I’ve seen before with my own twist. I know it seems like a lot of money right from the get-go but I also know that at the beginning of the year, we’re are all hyped – So go BIG or go home (so they say)!
