Tag: 12 in 2 goals

I’ve decided if I’m every going to get this list done, I need a plan – to save the money, but also to DO the things I’ve listed.  Two on going task (bible reading and half marathon running) are both currently in practice.  As for the other 10, I’ll list them in chronological order.  Sadly one goal has been deleted, but it’s for the best reason!

Activity list	Proposed date	Cost
Dinner at Quay	Jan 13
Knife skills course	May 13	$89
Go on a silent retreat	3-14 July 13	??
Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb	Sept 13	$218 – $298
Do Bridge Run (half way to half)	22 Sept 13	$55
Go Jet Skiing	Nov 13? Dec 13	$300/per hour
Learn to Surf	Nov 13 – 3 days	$445
Dinner at Aria	Jan 14	$420
Read the new testament	Mar 14	$0
Run a half marathon	May 14 or Sept 14	$120
Plan and prepay funeral	Nov 14	$6000
Zorbing	Jun 13	$110 +$105 in flights
		$1997

You can see the grand total has omitted the funeral prepaying – it’s just such a large chunk… so I have to have $2k raised over 21 months, that’s only $95 a month.  I can surely find that!  I’ll now sling any ‘extra’ cash at the end of the week into an ‘adventures’ fund (remember, I put a set amount away every week towards my $20k goal to refinance my mortgage at the end of this year).  Here’s to getting fun stuff onto the agenda, but still meeting my savings targets!
