Awesome! You've got goals. Now what're you gonna do to achieve them? I'm not gonna get into the whole SMART thing, but what goals are you tackling first, and what time frame are you giving yourself? Good for you for writing down what you want!
Hi Aaren!
I am networking my butt off to leverage off my current position to land a position at a firm. I am trying to make solid connections with at least 5 different firms. I already established 2 good relationships and I am working to develop the other 3.
The finances are coming along but slowly. Getting a raise and/or landing a better paying position will go a long way towards helping me pay off the debt and build a savings cushion.
acquiring is not bad at all as long as you know how to manage your finances wisely. With credit card, you can build your credit and to do this you have to be responsible with your spending habit. Credit cards can be a good debt.
This is an extremely sexy list.
I totally agree. =)
I know it may seem like I am wishing upon a star but a girl has got to dream right. =)
