It's never too early to get a jump start on your new years resolutions. Especially when Cash money life is offering a chance to win a 4GB iPod nano for writing out a financial goal for 2008.
My 2008 financial resolution is to learn and evaluate several bond options and make an investment.
Using the S.M.A.R.T goal format:
Specific - I want to increase my knowledge about investing in bonds to include mutual bond funds, US govt bonds, TIPS and municipal bonds.
Measurable -. I will evaluate each of these, make blog postings on each and make an investment in the bond instrument that best suits my financial plan.
Actionable - This is 100% possible. I have books that cover the subject, internet resources to mine and I can draw upon the experiences of individual friends and family that have invested in various types of bonds.
Realistic – I want to learn enough to feel confident in my bond investment. I do not expect to become an expert or become a bond trader.
Timely – I plan to start this month, evaluating a different bond instrument each month and then making an investment in April of 2008.
What is your financial resolution? The giveaway ends December 4th at 11:59 PM, Eastern Daylight Saving Time and the winners will be announced Thursday, December 6th.
