2008 Goals Update:

Here are my Goals for 2008:

 

$5000 in 401k: 104% Completed

$3000 in Savings: 20% Completed

$5000 in Roth IRA: 60% Completed

$2000 in HSA: 23% Completed

 

So for 2008 I understated my 401k goal. This is probably because I have to do absolutely nothing in order to complete this goal, everything is automatically taken out of my paycheck.

 

I overstated my Health Savings Account, mainly because every so often I spend some of the balance. So I might reach my goal of putting 2000 in the account, but the ending balance will be much less.

 

For my Roth I am just waiting until the markets stabilize before maxing that out for the year.

 

Savings of course is the hardest to reach. When I build up a nice amount I either dump into my Roth, or need to spend some of it for whatever reason.

 

My 2008 goals for the most part were ambitious, but not unreachable.
