This post is a little late, but with all the work at my new job, I haven’t been able to get down to it. This is part of the new monthly series I’m starting, Monthly Number Crunching. This series will let me keep track of my monthly debt numbers, keep me on track with my debt repayments and savings.
Total debt as of August 31, 2007: $18,476.45
Total paid in the $5000 Debt Payoff Contest: $1100
Total Savings this month: $325.00 (earned $1.74 in interest)
Emergency Fund Total: $1285.13
I’m quite pleased with all of these numbers, as the appropriate ones are increasing, and the appropriate ones are decreasing.



I never thought about have an emergency fund. I just have a checkings and savings account. Hum..I think it would be wise to have one. Thanks for the idea.
