Money Goals Revised

Over a year ago, I entered my money goals like so many others during training on WA. Today it occurred to I really just threw some numbers but at time did not really work the numbers...So today I decided to take a realistic look at what I want and even why those figures are what they are.

How much money per month would you be happy earning?
$12,000
Based on my preliminary budget, which includes the house I want for my children and I and my revised "real" monthly budget, I need $8070/month to get by. The extra $4000 would give me room to create a contingency funds to which I would contribute every month as well as put funds into long term investments.

How much money per month would allow you to live the ideal lifestyle?
$17,000
This would amount would give me room to contribute to my community, offer community coaching services. I would also like to take funds to encourage women empowerment on the island of St. Lucia where my family is from. I have a business idea I would like to get off the ground that encourages women's empowerment through community and school programs as well as offer scholarships to women entering less traditional fields as defined by the local culture.
How many hours per week are you willing to invest to achieve these goals?
40h
I say 40 hrs., however, when momentum gets going, I will put in as many hours up to 70 hrs./wk. to attain my goals. I want to make sure to take me time for prayer and meditation to stay in good health to enjoy the fruits of my labor.

Wish me luck on my road to success!
