Jon Bon’s Money

 

In 2008 I had a number of ambitious financial goals that I wanted to reach. I wanted to:

 

1. Contribute $5000 to my Roth IRA

2. Contribute $5000 to my 401k

3. Save $4000 in my high yield savings account

4. Save $2000 into my tax free health savings account.

 

 

 

Overall I was 2/4, but making big steps towards my goal. My net worth went up, and I did not make any big financial blunders, so I figure I am a shoe in for 2009 for an unmitigated financial disaster.

 

Moral of the story: Its hard to save after tax $9000 (Roth plus savings)
