Our savings are going well.
I’ve updated the tracker bars on here and have changed the amount we are
wanting to have in each account.
For our emergency fund, I would like to have £3k in it. Our boiler is very old and I know that if
that goes that will be a big chunk of the money gone. Also with the threat of redundancy I’d like
to have something to fall back on if needed.
I’ve only been in my present job, on a permanently contract, for about 4
years so would only get 1 months’ salary.
The holiday fund has also increased. We hope to go to Spain later this year and
maybe have a weekend away somewhere.
Also we thinking about a “big” holiday next year so I’m starting to save
towards that too.
We decided to use some of our savings to pay a large part of
the mortgage. This will reduce the
amount we owe by half. Any money we have
left at the end of the month is being divide between savings towards home
improvements and overpaying the mortgage.
We are hoping to have paid the mortgage off within another 6 years –
fingers crossed.
