Net worth update - up $5,755
| This month didn't end up near as bad as I had thought. I received my annual bonus at work, but the majority of it went towards living expenses as Mr. Savvy isn't working, I'm working part-time, and we are paying for daycare that isn't even getting used. Hopefully the weather will start to cooperate soon and Mr. Savvy will be back at work in a week or two. The way my part-time phase back from maternity leave worked was that I was very, very part time for about a month (12-16 hour weeks). I slowly work my way up to 3 and 4-day weeks this month and have about four more weeks of 80% time before I'm expected back full time. It's a great benenfit for moms and families and I wish it lasted longer than 12 weeks! We are still somehow making progress on our 0% credit card debt. I'm hoping to find some renewed resolve this month and make some serious progress over the next two months. I would love to get it down to less than $23,000 before May 1. I have also neglected including our contributions to Baby Savvy's 529 in our net worth. I add them this month. We contribute $250/month to his college education.

post a commentWow, that's a hefty increase w/ the way the markets are these days, congrats!
How is your "Retirement" calculated? Is it both of your 401ks?
Retirement consists of my 401(k), Mr. Savvy's Rollover IRA from a previous employer, and both of our Roth IRAs. Mr. Savvy's job doesn't provide a 401(k), unfortunately. I've been lobbying to get one, but so far they have been unresponsive.
I just discovered your site and I love it! I really enjoy the content, as well as the design/layout.
