My financial journey to retirement and security, trying to save for the future and still e
About Me:
CCraw
46 year old female, debt free but trying to save as much as possible.
I am currently working as a gate-guard in the oilfield in South Texas on the Eagle Ford Shale and it is predicted that there is 10-18 years worth of work in this area.
I live and work in a 20 ft travel trailer-camper with my two dogs CoCo (chiuaua) and Kruegar (poodle/blue healer mix).
Life can be extremely exciting or extremely boring both, depending on what is going on at any given time.
Goals for 2012 are:
[ ] Save $10,000.00 by May for an emergency fund
[ ] Save $5000.00 by July for a reliable used truck.
[ ] Save $10,000.00 in regular savings.
Other goals/challenges for the year will be to buy only used where I can and to get free or very low cost items where possible.
