Do taxes. Wait. Profit!

Well, not profit, per se. But still.

So, according to the taxes results I got online, I'm going to be getting $900 back.

I really want to travel. I mean, I really want to travel. I haven't traveled other than the quick jaunt to Vail in two years.

I am going to Michigan in November for Caitlin's wedding, but thankfully I've got time to save for that. And it's Caitlin's wedding, for goodness sake, of course I'm going. Too early yet to request time off...

Anyway. I know the places I really want to go (the UK, Ireland, Turkey, Mongolia) are waaaaaay outside my price range.

But surely I could afford to take a bit and drive around CO? Well, once my car gets fixed...

Shit. No, no I can't. I can't afford it. I need to pay off my credit cards, and I can't afford to take time off work.

Fine.

Travel will have to wait until October and November. Damn.

Put half into a higher interest savings account and then put the other half on the credit cards. Remember to pay yourself first and you'll have a vacation soon enough!

That.. or Vegas!

See, you need more than that to get into the high interest savings accounts. I think most of them I've seen have a minimum of like, $1000 or more to start.

Otherwise, I'd be right there...

Damn that sucks, here in Canada they just started with the Tax Free Savings Account (TFSA), min 25$ to start. Its my plan to move forward.
