I am starting out June with $66.26 in my personal account. I don’t owe joint or my credit card for the first time in a long time! (Sometimes I purchase my personal things with joint items and have to pay joint back, or I buy online and use my credit card which I pay back as soon as it clears.)
In order to start the month out right, I opened a personal savings account with ING and transferred $20 to it. I figured the less that is in the account, the less I have the urge to spend. My goal is to reach $150 in my personal savings.
$66.26 – Opening Balance
-$20.00 – Savings 6/1/2011
=$46.26 – Available for gas with remainder going to savings
Total amount saved so far: $20 out of $150
*About my personal account: Every Monday I get $65 to purchase gas and my personal splurges. In June, anything not spent on gas will be sent to savings for my trip this fall.
