Well, things are a bit hazy right now. As you know, my car is laid up. The thing is, I don’t want to fix it.

That means I am no longer trying to save the $2700 to fix my car and still have $1000. As of right now I am just trying to be as vigilant at saving as I can be. My first focus is my debts, but I am putting aside a decent amount every month towards whatever goal I come up with.

I am thinking seriously about starting a green lawn care business. One of my readers did it this year. I figure if I scale it back and take it slow. I could make a few hundred extra bucks a week. It’s sort of a no brainer.

I’m thinking that I’ll save towards the startup costs for that business, but I’m not 100% sure that’s what I want to do.

I know for sure I’m going to save towards an emergency fund. Right now, I’m starting with $1000. Though when I reach $1000 I doubt I’ll stop saving.

So, I have the goal of getting out of debt. I’m attacking that with $300/mo in a snowball.

I have $497 in savings. Moving on up.

After a $1000 emergency savings what should I make my goal? Any suggestions?
