WARM GETAWAY

I love to travel. But unfortunately we all know traveling costs $$$. So in order for me to travel like I want I save 10% of my pay check every time I get paid. I always want to go some where warm in the winter to get away from the snow. It is still really cold where I live. I love to scuba dive - its fun to go some where different every winter for the new diving experience. This pic of Tahiti.

SLUSH FUND $$

I don’t know about you but I love to travel. As we all know traveling costs $$ sometimes LOTS of $$. I have a SLUSH TRAVEL fund that I keep separate from my other saving and checking accounts. This fund allows me to take a vacation on a whim.

Each time I get paid I set aside $200 in my slush fund.A couple of weeks ago, I had the opportunity to take a last minute trip to the beach. The lodging was free and I only had to pay for food and drinks. I spent about $200 and I didn't have to pull the money from my regular budget and I didn't have to touch my emergency fund or regular savings. It was also nice to not have to worry about whether or not I could afford it. As long as I have money in the slush fund to cover the purchase, I can afford it. After all, that's what it's there for.
