9 Pays until Xmas...£10k to save.

YoungBusinessman

Along with my aim not to spend an unnessesary penny this month I am going to set myself a new couple of challenges. One I'm thinking about is to try and hit a certain income every month. In 2013 as a whole I think I will go for an aim of £80,000 gross income for the year. Then follow on to 90k and go for the 100k barrier in a few years. £80k income in a year would clear all business debt and allow me up pay a decent chunk off the house I meant to be buying at year end. Will rustle up a soa tonight about how much I could increase income while increasing workload, next step would be increasing income without increasing workload. Payday tonight but it is all goin towards my fuel and digs. It's only a few £££ I'm getting. Pay on Saturday will cover last months credit card expenses. Then pay from job next Friday will be around £1500 net, £800 to loans and £700 saved.....keeping my head up despite all random expenses that have popped up! Still I'm at £3,000 saved after6 weeks!

Hit a few stumbling blocks but still got £3k saved since mid August! Aim to smash £5k by the end of this month and £8k+ end of November so just need £2k in December to hit my £10k target by year end!! I think il hit the target then savings will drop slightly as I'm off for 2 or 3 weeks over Xmas and I go about 4 or 5 weeks without a pay over that time! Anyway keeping chin up and hope to hit £5k before month end!!
