Here we GO!

Here we go now. Back to update you on my Challenging Debt

Here are the totals for this pay period.

Chase $0.00
Amex $0.00
Citi Premier $1,226.08
Mastercard #1 $4,469.62
Mastercard #2 $2,679.59
Total CC Debt $8,375.290

For some reason I found an extra $100.00 in my account. I forget that it is there because, when I calculate my paycheck I only calculate it using $1,050.00 instead of the amount that truly enters the account. So I applied the extra $50 to my Citi Premier card and $50 to my E-Fund.

I also readjusted my 401K contributions and they seem to be doing better than when I was trying to pick and choose the expensive funds that I was just choosing blindly. I chose an Index Fund and the Retirement 2045 along with the one International Fund we have in our portfolio. I have very little invested into the company that I work for (Enron taught us about that. My poor mother lost almost all of her money on that. Boy I tell you teachers work so hard and then when they retire they learn that an Enron, Madoff, Ponzi scheme has stolen all their money. It's not fair). One day I will be out from under this debt and I will be able to contribute more than just the piddly 3% I am putting in.

Well that's all I have for now. Until next time.

D.C. Out
