With a minute to spare, I posted our financial goals for 2008 right before the switch to 2008. So…how did we do?
For our credit card debt, we wanted to pay off at least $10,000 more. That would put us in a good position to meet our goal date of May 2009. How much did we pay? $10,965. We exceeded our goal.
For our savings, we wanted to beef it up to $2,500 (although I noted it would be nice to get it to $5,000). I won’t have our final amount until interest is added in, but we have over $3,700 in our savings so we met that goal as well.
I have a feeling it will be down to the wire again this year to post our 2009 financial goals. The only thing I can think about is getting our credit card debt finally paid off. We are so close now…I can taste it!

I’m in the same boat with the credit card debt–less than $2,000 to go! We should be done with it by April at the latest. Best of luck to you in the final stretch
