The "Save 12k in 2019" Thread

Cherry_Burton

Hi,

No 57 here. I'm very pleased to say I have managed £1900 this month. January was a good month for overtime for me. Fingers crossed it remains so.

Chuffed to report #39 savings of £243.48 made up from various small wins & my stocks and shares ISA improving performance. Same as many it's been slaughtered last quarter of 2018!

Morning all, no. 15 here, first up, sorry for this very late update, I have been overseas and it was just a bit tricky without my normal laptop and/or access to spreadsheets to sort out how Jan went, so I left it till I got back, which was yesterday. Secondly, I'm afraid I've kicked off the year with a negative, -£3,222.07, ouch Between the trip (which was undertaken to sort out some family stuff) and a tax bill and some expensive house/garden repairs, it's got the year off to a rocky start, but that's life, and I will just have to try to climb uphill from here! I'll still be underwater at the end of Feb probably. Sorry to drag the table down! I'm nothing if not an optimist and will do my best to reach my target regardless. I seem to remember Jan last year was also a bummer for similar reasons, think it's just a costly month for me generally. Anyway, onwards and upwards.

When I attempt to view the updated spreadsheet the months have 16 next to them Jan 16, Feb 16 & there are no amounts at all? Anyone else have this??

Morning Mrs R, I’ve checked for you this morning by clicking on the “Click here to see the total amounts so far” link in the first post and I get Jan 19 with numbers in that column. Seems to be working ok for me. Hopefully a clever person will be along soon to help!

Life is what happens when we are busy making plans - something my mother used to say. Hopefully everything is sorted with your family. Hang in there, you can turn this around, cheering you on from my little corner here :T:T

Sometimes life gets in the way and things happen! You can get it back, it's only month one
