making more money...

July 28th, 2006 at 08:52 pm

Well, we were on such a roll with our plan that we decided to keep going. We have now made an additional $79.47 through coupons and phone book deliveries. I opened a separate bank account to put the money in for the mortgage because we can pay a lump sum once a year, so we'll wait until the end of December and dump everything extra down that we've saved for the principal. Our mortgage is up for renewal in March and we can pay some more down then without being penalized.

The other 1/2 of the money is in a special hiding place to use for the vacation we're taking in 3 weeks.

Our goal is to make an additional $400 in August. Half of this will go to the mortgage account and the other half will go to something for the house...we just haven't figured out what yet. Dh asked me to sit down with him this weekend and help make a list of everything I would like to have done in the house and we will pick one thing and get started. I would LOVE to have new kitchen countertops, so that's where my vote will go. I have a feeling that Dh is going to lean towards having the hot tub fixed first. I'll post what we decide!

    That's great to pay down your principal, keep it up
