Congrats on your prosperous year! I wish you many, many more. You are a very good writer and your readers make very thoughtful comments. I've visited your website daily for most of this year. I've learned alot. I found it looking for help for my daughter after her boyfriend ran up $12,000 in cc debt on her card. She now knows a authorized user is not responsible for that debt. Her father and I are and always have been in good shape financially, because we live below our means. We value time and skills more than money and things. I love gardening. The food and exercise is just bonus. My former boss and another gardener I know love it because they make a $150,000+ incomes from it(multi farmers markets around D.C.). We'll get the marriage deduction for this year. Marriage license $30, marriage ceremony $50, looks on our 27 yr. old daughter's and 23 yr. old son's faces one week later, PRICELESS! *Not sure if this is a repeat. Previous one disappeared before I typed the last word. May have hit submit, but not sure. Please delete as needed. Hi, J.D.

We're losing several rec centers in Columbus because Uncle Sam fell on his face and the states followed suit. It sounds frivolous but those centers were often the safest places where the less advantaged children in this city could spend time during the day and early evening. Apparently we are going to have less of a rat control program now too. In the U.S.'s fifteenth-largest city. It's going to be an interesting year.

I'm going to try this my personal goals since I'm already happy with the spending plan that my dh and I created for next year. Thank you also for the many well-written articles. Even if it's not a topic I'm especially interested in, I still learn something. And I never want to stop learning! Thank you in particular for the link to the article about an annual review.

Fri, 26 Dec 2008 23:35:23 +0000 http://www.getrichslowly.org/blog/?p=2246#comment-161113 Last nite, I took the time to make a list of the Financial Goals that I would like to accomplish in 6 months. It took a lot of thought. I broke it down month by month as to what I would have to do. But now I'm looking forward to June rolling around, to see if I will have made those goals a reality. I believe I will. I'm keeping my list next to my computer, where I will see it and be reminded each day. I noticed that when I see sale items, like advertised in the paper today, I'm no longer tempted because I know buying anything now that I don't need, will keep me from achieving those goals. This is working so well for me, psychologically speaking, that I'm going to make new financial goals every 6 months. 6 months seems right around the corner to me, so doing this twice a year, rather than every year just feels more doable to me.

And New year's resolutions. But not in the cheesy way. in 2008, I actually kept all of my resolutions because I turned them into a real plan. It made such a huge difference. Now is the time to make a new set of resolutions I can hopefully keep. Goodness knows I’m doing my own annual review. And New year’s resolutions.
