52 Weeks Savings Challenge (2024 Edition)

[jrod54life]

What type of accounts are you guys using? I want to open a high yield savings account, but not sure which one to go with.

These days not many options in regards to "high yield" but ally or Capone savings are on the higher side than chase

Looks like I now know what I've been saving for: my kid will need braces 50% of my part will cost ca. €900. Insurance should cover the 2/3 rest.

Anybody still saving for holiday purposes? I feel like with things considered, that’ll allow many to save more money

Not really. I’m either planning on using what I saved to tackle all my cc debt at one time or just do half.

Holiday gifts shouldn’t be more than 1k altogether for me only because I want to get my mother something special.

I have neither any major holiday purchases nor trips planned. Aside from my kid's braces, I'm saving for the sake of saving.

Dope. I plan on doing that as well. I already paid one off which dipped into my savings. Just got one more to pay off

Always good to have a stash. I’m trying to get to the point where I always have 4k-5K in the tuck for emergencies

How we all doin?

Used half of my savings on unnecessary things but still holding on until the end of the year. Plan to either double or triple what I did this year next if I get this job I'm after.

I dipped into my savings too. Felt bad but I had to do it. I’m definitely tryna stack up next year myself. Getting a new job and a new spot.
