June/July Status and Roundup
I meant to write about my crummy line of credit status and biking challenge last month (see May’s here), but it slipped my mind (must be that summer sun!). To date, I’ve completed my bike challenge with 4 miles to boot! Biking is my love, so it’s very easy for me to commit to biking a certain amount and fulfilling that goal and then some.

Crummy Loan Pay Off
My crummy line of credit loan, however, is going a bit slower than hoped, only $2oo less than what it was six weeks ago. The interest is so atrocious at 29.99% that a large portion of my payment goes towards interest. However, I have a plan that will resolve this issue by next month.

Now Some Awesome Posts for Sharing:
- Barbara Friedberg Personal Finance and MBA Course: Investing and Portfolio Management….some great tips for those interested and ready to invest in the stock market. It confirmed what my husband is doing, investing for the long haul.
- Engineer Your Finances with Book Review – Enjoy Your Money. What was most intriguing about this book review is the comparison to the movie The Breakfast Club. One of my favorite ’80′s movies, if this book is as enjoyable, I could see myself blowing through it in an afternoon.
- Budgeting in the Fun Stuff with Fit in a Fun Friday – Road Trips. Almost everyone has a memory of a road trip they experienced as a kid. Most of mine were of arguments, sleeping in the back of a van or wagon, hectic “Look, kids! The Badlands!” comments, and dusty, sweaty, musty smells. However, those memories are looked upon with nostalgia.
- Young and Thrifty with Taking the Plunge and Putting an End to Home Envy. I feel her desire here, I too hope to be a homeowner in the next year or so. She’s not so crazy with wanting to purchase in Vancouver, a pricey area. I hope to purchase a home in Ojai (maybe I’m dreamin’!) within the next year or two. Perhaps were both loopy!
