what are you saving for?
so what are you all saving up for/ needing to pay off before the end of the year with your camming money?
im lucky that im a uk student so get my grant and loan given to me by the government along with my tution fees but it just covers the cost of rent, bills and food. i have to budget really well and i dont have any spare cash to replace clothes, shoes or anything that goes.
im new to camming and hoping to save for
paying off the overdraft which is £1400
new laptop for £450
xmas pressies
anything else on top of this will go into rainy day savings ;)
so as long as the internet is all set up for next fri then im on my camming way! ;D

I am trying to pay off bills, and I want to start putting 10% of what I make to my savings (after I am caught up with bills) and have a 6 months nest egg like the above poster.

Not looking to buy a house any time soon until I can literally pay at least 80% up front and until I know where I'd want to live *forever*.

Re: what are you saving for?
Taxes. Oh Lordy, halfways through the year I kept having to spend my tax money for one reason or another and realized I owe 12,000$ so far and only have 4,000$ saved up for it. I know if I just put in a solid 40 hour work week for one month I can get it squared away. Motivation is gone when you know you are just working for Uncle Sam's money. :(
Hopefully deductions will help! Saving for taxes is so important!

A house in the mountains of Santa Fe or Taos.

Re: what are you saving for?
When I get back to camming next week I will be saving for:
Paying off my debts: £2,310
Kitting out my apartment: paint, carpet and furniture. Around: £1000
Flat screen tv for my living room by Christmas this year or January 2012. £500 max
15% of my wages in a saving account. Hopefully at least £340 min a month.
Once my big debt is paid off I can save up for my driving lessons and a holiday. :)
-
Re: what are you saving for?
-credit cards
-medical bills
-paying off car $8,000 left ( I want it to be $0 by 1/2012)
-umm back taxes (big oops on this one) I can't write the number because I'm still keeping my head in the sand and then I'll get my super negotiation hat on when I call them. Eeeks!
-late fall or spring school registration. I figure it's time to go back and get a degree again.
-retirement /savings for future cushion
-As far as holiday goes. I hope people will still think Hallmark free e-cards are nice because that's as far as it's going to go. Tired of blowing chunks of cash on gifts with little appreciation
-Stop helping other people out financially. That's probably the biggest New Years resolution that I'm starting way before 2012 comes in.
