anyone starting thinking about ....?
« on: October 15, 2017, 04:50:51 pm »
Anyone start thinking about next year?

And what next year will bring and what you would like to accomplish.
I have actually I have been thinking tons about it.

There are 4 major things that I would like
1) Accomplish purchasing a 2nd vehicle
2) I would like to buy a trailer or find a larger apartment
3) Starting trying for baby #3 (which can only happen is #2 is accomplished)
4) I would like to get the apartment and storage decluttered (we are working on this but it seems like we really have a lack of time where both of us can get to the storage and it always seems like something else needs our attention more)

Of course paying off bills is always something I would love to happen.
and hopefully I will have the same job as I have now. November will be 1 year at this job so I will like to keep going and get in 18 months and 2 years.

My job with pcs only lasted a little under a year so this is a huge accomplishment as I was never at a job for a year straight before.

    I dream, plan and set goals.
    Some become realities...while others are very hard to achieve.

I would like to max out my allowable  contributions to retirement accounts; put twelve hundred dollars towards individual stocks; put five hundred dollars into a forex account and get a twenty percent return; increase liquid savings by twelve hundred dollars; put fifteen hundred dollars into my peer to peer accounts; start three internet businesses; make seven thousand dollars in cash doing odd jobs; make a ten percent increase in my evening/weekend job's annual income; cut my hours back to fifty hours a week at my day time job; see my kids once a month (they are both at college); get fifty hours of volunteer time in; bike/run two thousand and eighteen miles; go to one epic concert; go to the Sturgis motorcycle rally; and go on one nice vacation with my wife. That is the start of my goals for the next year.

I have given very little thought to next year.  I am focusing on accomplishing as much as I can in the remainder of 2017.  By doing this, I feel it will make me more successful this year...and next year.

I have been out of my house due to a fire for the last 8 months.  I haven't thought about next year at all.  Only getting  back in my house...which is supposed to happen in 2 weeks!

It seems impossible that another year has gone by, but here it is almost winter with January around the corner! During 2018, I would like to lose some weight and get my health under a little better control. I would also like to be making a better effort to keep up with my extended family. I kind of fell off the grid with them this year. :(

I can't plan that far ahead.  Right now my future is pretty much in flux.

I only know one thing about next year and that is: I'm going to Alaska.

I'm thinking about paying my credit card bills off so I can free up some dough.
