I'm back and getting into UMS as lifes been pretty crazy lately. I've been waiting on this sub for a while now so had to jump on board.
Did my first loop while sleeping the night it was released and other than feeling a bit scatterbrained the next day felt pretty normal. I'm loving the fact this is only 1 loop every 8 days makes it nice and easy to run.
Down to what's happened so far. I'm not far off starting a house build so that has taken up a lot of time and in my country all costings have to be done before a house is being built so today I was finalizing a costing and found out it was actually included in another costing I had got (so a $1500 saving). I then got through another costing which came in at $8000 greater than originally thought, not so good but in some way it may have been a blessing as this was the one part of the build process that could start without a final cost so I may be able to find an alternate route that costs less. If it had started and I had been billed later there would have been no possibility of an alternate route. One thing that has been quite different though is my attitude towards that extra expense before I would have stressed out and not sleep but this time I have not been to worried and know I will find a way around it.
Something I am struggling with a bit is setting a goal for UMS. I know where I want my life to be but I need $300 million for it to be there so not the best goal to start off with. That is my end goal though a net worth of $300 million+
A few of the thoughts I had
* Be mortgage free on my property
* Have an income of $20,000 per month (may be a bit to easy as that's not quite double my current income)
* Be able to pay cash for the house of my dreams
Is it best to set a monetary amount? or define what I want to be able to afford? or it doesn't matter?
