Saving for this upcoming year. I'm throwing a housewarming party and I'm turning 21 this year... so I want to do it right. ;)

Stuff. I want to move across the country soon (job app going out tomorrow) - I have a nice safety net now, so a house is on the list.

I'm saving for retirement (401k and Roth IRA), my kids (529 plan), and a plot of land in Oregon ($25k in cash for a downpayment).

I have no intention of settling in Oregon right away, but I want to buy the land at today's prices and start paying down the mortgage. The plot I have in mind I can pay down in 10 years, easy.

:thumbsup: Not necessarily a bad thing at all. You never know, there might be something you want (or need) later on down the line.

An engine rebuild for my classic jeep and money for a new TV. I've got my 6 months living expenses on hand now for my emergency savings so now (just got to that point about a month ago) so now I feel comfortable putting money towards fun stuff.

Trying to save up for a high end computer build, but I can't really justify it since I don't really game anymore. I just like building computers, it makes my day. Then I start seeing my tuition fees and now im rethinking it again.
