    Good month for me, Boosted by a strong premium bond win and interest/dividends from savings/investments and that’s just a 4 payday month.

    October is expected to be decent too as I’ve sold an iPhone.

    Save £12,000 in 2024: £17,500 out of £12,000.
    Save £12,000 in 2025: £0 out of £12,000.

    Quick update:
    I have achieved the yearly 12K target and have now started saving towards 12K in 2025.
    I could increase my 12K for this year but I want to make it a realistic yearly goal with no stress just enjoyment attached to the achievement.
    I've also cleared my £2,500 debt in full so a double bubble of saving happiness in 2024 :D
