What are you currently saving for?

[kittybean]

Personally, I'm saving for 1.2 ctw bezel studs. I'm getting so close!

DH and I are trying to save up an emergency fund with 18 months' worth of expenses and a baby fund (for much later down the line).

I got offered an externship in NY so all my money is being put towards that at the moment. No unnecessary spending for me for the next 9 months.

Hi mscushion-it's for almost one month so I'll be arriving mid-September and finishing mid-October. DH is going to fly over towards the end of the trip and then we'll have a few days together before flying back to Ireland. I might be applying for a year if I enjoy it. I love NY so I cannot wait!!

As a couple, we're saving for a house. Although at this point... we'll see. Slim pickings in the are we want. We may go condo, or just rent for the forseeable future. Meh.

Personally, I'm saving up for .6 - .8 twc (ish) studs.

I'm giving birth in May and i just found out tonight that the hospital and the doctor are going to cost us 11.000 euros I'm still in shock...so i guess we should start saving for this much more than we thought...

I'm saving for moving (and I made a big leap forward today!- I woke up and I was in a good mood and had a lot of energy, but I didn't know it was going to be such a great day).

Then once I've moved I'm going to get my simple 400$ ring before they take it away the way they did my minimalist gold bracelet.

I am trying to save money so that I can get my pink tourmaline set

The purchase of our final dream house on the water...

A lot of things have to happen first though so not sure this will actually occur. We have to sell our beach home first which we are in the process of doing but the potential buyers are quite unreasonable and a bit crazy (not just our perception- their very own RE broker's perception too LOL) so not sure this is going to happen but if it does we are already in contract on our dream home (contingent on the sale of our beach home).

Anyway we are saving as much as we can because even if the sale of our beach home goes through the house we want to purchase is more expensive and there are a lot of fees associated with the sale and purchase of each home. And then there are the very high monthly maintenance costs associated with our co-op which keeps going up every year.

So lots of things to save for but all good. Fingers crossed it works out!

And good luck to everyone who is saving for their dream as well!

He's saving for the ring and I'm saving for a move (and a surprise trip for him later this year). Also, trying to keep padding that emergency fund
