BHAG Update - 2 Months To Go

Can you believe that our planned departure date for the big trip is only 2 months away today????

I’m not sure whether to be excited or a little freaked out by that. :)  I think I’m a bit of both.

Anyway, I thought it was time for an update on how I’m going with my BHAG (which is to save $5000 by the time we leave).

Total as of 31st March 2009: $3294.47

To be added:

March Interest $64.19

Advertising Payment (3 Kids And A Caravan)  $100

Money Owed from Friend (was paid out of last years budget so I’m going to add it to my total)  $110.00

Neways Cheque $6.67

Flybuys Rewards Card $100

Competition Winnings $300

Grocery Surplus for April $84.75

Interest (April)  $66.84

Total to be Added $832.45

Bringing my current BHAG total to:


Can you believe that???

$4,126.92

I am over the moon with that figure!!!!  I’ve already surpassed my wildest expectations.  And with 2 months left to go, I might even actually reach this goal.

$873.08 over the next 8 weeks.  About $110 a week.  Hmmm….

    You managed it in April - May has one more day - you should romp it in!

    Looks to me like you’ll make that goal with no trouble at all.

    B - thanks :)

    Kin - yeah, 1 more day will make ALL the difference!!! LOL. Problem with a monthly budget is that 1 more day actually makes things harder!

    River - I hope so. I’m stoked and stunned with how it’s gone so far.

    You have done so well with your challenge. I’m sure you’re going to get very close to, or beat, your goal.
