June 2008 update



June was the best month ever as far as meeting my goals goes. I finally, FINALLY achieved my goal of spending $2000 or less in a month. My total expenses for the month were $1,861.97, and that includes $350 in medical-related expenses, plus clothes, a haircut, and eating out. Now I just need to figure out what was different about June, aside from it truly being an unusual month because I spent less than normal. Income was up too, which was a plus. I hope that both of these things continue in future months.

Net worth wise, things were good too. Assets were up, despite the stock market grumbles. My liabilities were down, because I put less on my AMEX and we finally started paying toward principal again on the house.

Here are the stats for June:

Assets: Up $1561.49
Liabilities: Down $829.94
Change in net worth over previous month: Up $2391.43

    Nice to see you had an increase. Most of the other bloggers had a down month; myself included.

    Well, I had a down month with all of my stock market-related investments, but other stuff made up for that.
