Been great to be part of this managed my £12k target and pleased to start earning interest again. Thanks for doing the challenge SlowlyFading much appreciated with all you have going on. Been following your blog for years without knowing the connection.

I somehow managed £2225 in November… that means I’ve beaten the target, and can put December’s surplus  towards baby things (three months to go!). 

Next year is going to be a tricky one as I won’t be making anything for six months (new job = no maternity pay) but will hopefully still be able to save a little nonetheless.

£250.00 saved for November, just a little push for the end of the year, but Im not sure I can save £500 to get me to my target but I will try my hardest.

#12 reporting in with £2,055 for November. A good chunk of it is back money and think this now means I've met my target.  Really happy as still got December to add (and that amount will depend on energy costs for this month).

Networth increased £36k in 2022. However actual cash at bank dwindled. Is there a 2023 thread for this set up yet? Will be my target, I want to come back on here at some point next year with £12k in a bank account I will open specifically for this challenge, the money will not be touched either! 

£12k isnt that much money in this day and age, no reason why I can't smash it. No excuses not to at least hit that target. 

I am already spending this rainy day taking down ideas and plans on how I am going to get there!!

Spreadsheet updated.

There will be a 2023 challenge - the thread will be up in a few days so keep an eye out for that.

Everyone is doing so well - I'm excited to see what the final total is!

#5 reporting in for November. I managed to save £1,506 for that month (form updated) which means I am still on target for the year (just over 92%).
My repairs & replacements pot this time went down by £1,400 as had to pay for some landscaping work on my back garden. My planned roof work is still on hold, waiting on a new confirmed date - might give up on that roofer and try to find a new one.

#74 updated till December

Managed to beat my saving target my a good margin. 
Next year is going to be difficult - will be starting off in the red, have a sizeable tax bill 🤬
