resolutions

a few resolutions:

  • floss every other day
  • become an awesome teleskiier.
  • decorate my cubicle to be more homey or personalized
  • clear away my credit card debt
  • once I pay off CC debt, give away a certain percentage of my $$ to charitable organizations
  • decide on a new career - which means devoting more time each week to this process.
  • learn how to ski the backcountry safely - take avalanche safety courses, etc.

I just thought of these off the top of my head. A few of these I have been working on for a while - the debt one which I will definitely be able to fulfill this year barring any financial emergencies, and the career deciding one. Actually I was supposed to decide on a new career by the end of last year.

Also, in the past I have given away 10% of my income to various non-profits (although I earned maybe 3K or so). In 2004 I gave away a little under 1 percent. This year I would like to aim for more like 5 percent. However, I have all sorts of financial goals and only so much money - pay off debt, save money for the long term, save money for a trip, give money to charities, etc. Plus live a certain lifestyle. So we will see how I do.
