I am done funding my Roth IRA for 2008. DH’s should be done in about 1 week, we’re just waiting for a check from our stock account. Sold some ESPP shares last week and now we’re just waiting to fund.
Plan for next year is to fund our Roth IRA with the 2 remaining ESPP purchases and January 1st purchase of 2009 and we should be done by 1/15/2009. Yes I’m excited. I believe we’re in good shape.
And May is a 3 paycheck month for DH so we have just enough to cover all of our massive tuition bills this summer. We will be paying $4500 5/20, $6500 6/10, $3200 6/30, and $2000 8/10. Wow that is $16.2k. Eek. We have a little over $10k, with the extra paycheck and tax rebate we’ll be at $14k and we should cash flow the rest!

Congrats on funding your IRA… we did ours last week ($4000 a person) and it hurts watching your savings account go down by that much. But hopefully we’ll be able to retire at some point by funding our retirement at an early age.

WOW! You are doing fantastically! I’m hoping to have mine fully funded by October, but you are WAY ahead of that! Congrats!
BTW, I like the new site!
