BFS Newsletter #72 - December 2012 Income Update

Hi <<First Name>>!  Happy New Year!  I am really excited about 2013...I just have a feeling that it will be an amazing year.  Fingers crossed.  :-)

Hope you all are doing well!  My financial resolutions center around paying off the last $23,500 of the rent house mortgage and fully funding our Roth IRA's.  I think we can hit both of those goals by continuing to save all of our monthly extra beyond the necessities and occasional splurges.  We'll see...

Win the Monthly Prize!

Just to say thanks for being part of the BFS community, each month we give away an Amazon gift card or Paypal cash AND a free copy of How I Make Money Blogging to one lucky BFS Newsletter Subscriber. Congrats to Dev for winning last month!  To enter this month's, please jump over to this post and leave a comment- only one comment per person please! A winner will be chosen and notified at the beginning of next month.
