Hubby got paid today (a bit early because of the holiday on Monday) so I decided to get the ball rolling on some transfers.
Some of the money I already had set aside and the rest was added with this paycheck.
- Transferred $450.00 to our mortgage savings for 1/2 of the monthly mortgage payment (it's actually more than 1/2 our regular payment, but I like to have the account padded a little in case homeowner's insurance or property taxes go up)
- Transferred $501.07 to our credit card
- Transferred $240.82 to my college loan savings (loans not due until end of 2011/beginning of 2012, but starting to make "payments" to get a head start)
- Transferred $501.08 to our emergency fund
- Transferred $534.00 to our vacation savings (have to keep up with it if we want to go to Italy next year)
- Transferred $50.00 into my IRA (automatically deducted every month)
All of our bills are paid until the middle of June. The emergency fund is almost back to the pre-layoff amount, which we'll finish next month.
