Kuwaiti Woman’s Journey into Managing her Finances

January Emergency Fund +KWD 968

January 28th, 2008 | Category: emergency fund, finances, savings

As some of you may have noticed my Emergency Fund amount has increased from KWD 668 to 968. I’ve put aside 300 from my January salary towards my savings, which has me 32.3% closer to my goal.

I was originally supposed to set aside 500 from my salary but I decided on a surprise splurge, my hair treatments. They’re going to cost me 200 so I deducted the amount from my Emergency Fund money. If I continue to save up 500 a month until May, I’ll reach my goal in time so I’m not too worried.

With the return of the money I had lent out, my Emergency Fund had more at the end of January than I expected. My goal was to have KWD 500 and I ended with KWD 968. It’s not a bad start to the year.
