a LOT of people take part in the monthly challenge now and sometimes I wonder what their personal aims are with the money they make.
For me it's all about experiences I think. I like going places and doing things and if I am going to have to fork out for those things I'd rather it comes out of my 'extra' income than from my main job which is what tends to pay the bills and other boring stuff.
I'm very much a 'plan ahead' kind of guy so for example we are having some more work done on the house in August and i've been putting aside a few hundred aside each month so that when August roles around I'm able to pay. We tend to do that quite a lot with things that need doing to the house where we will book in trades people months in advance lol
Holidays are like that as well I feel, i will often pay the deposit and then chip away at the holiday cost over the months before we depart
So do you guys have any targets you are aiming for or does your online money just end up going on the bills?
