Stacking Pennies . . .

I recently set a June 22nd "in the black" goal.

I also want to talk about my goals for the year. My original (financial) goals were as follows:

-Open Roth IRA and contribute 3000 over the course of this year
-Contribute 10-15% of pre-tax dollars to 401k
-Save 100/wk in INGDIRECT account
-Pay at least 200/month on student loans

My updated goals are as follows:
-Max out Roth contributions at 4k
-Contribute 10-15% of pre-tax dollars to 401k (same)
-Save 150/wk in HSBC account (switch banks!)
-Pay 250/month on student loans

And the "reach" goals, that I don't even know if are possible:
-Max out Roth contributions at 4k (same)
-Contribute 10-15% of pre-tax dollars to 401k (same)
-Accumulate 10k in HSBC account (about 1k extra)
-Reduce loan debt to 16k (about 2k extra)

Good luck to me!
