Pennies-Nickels-Dollars: Managing Student Loans Tips to help you minimize and manage student loans before, during, an after college.
It's been a while (6 months!) since my last update, but I've made a lot of progress in some of my goals, mainly the financial ones!
Financial
Create a $1000 emergency fund by September 2011.
2/11: 75% of the way there! Woo Hoo!
6/11: Savings account balance: $3175.48 Woo Hoo!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm going to wait until September to officially set a new savings goal, but with automatic savings I should be at around $3500 even by then :)
*I almost forgot about my bank that I mentioned in the "Making Savings Fun" post, we've raised about $54 in change lol
12/11: On December 1st I broke the $5000 mark in my savings account!
