New Year's Resolutions (mine & other people's)

According to this article from Fitness.com ...

"Many people tend to make unrealistic goals when it comes to creating a New Year’s Resolution based on health and fitness. Many rush immediately to a gym to sign up, go for a few weeks, and then decide to give up. Instead of making these unreachable goals for yourself, why not start with something simpler. Here are some suggestions to creating a more manageable and achievable New Year’s Resolution."

This year (next year?), instead of doing traditional resolutions, I'm doing a 101 Things in 1001 Days list. I'll be tracking that list in a separate blog, here.

The finance related goals are:
1. Have emergency fund of $1,500
2. Get 1 full paycheck ahead in checking overdraft account
3. Consolidate credit card debt & reduce by 75%
4. Open a CD Ladder with a minimum of $500*
5. Develop a consistent fourth stream of income.
