I’ve had the same laptop for almost 5 years now. It’s a Dell and still works great and the only problems I’ve had with it were covered under the warranty and easily fixed.
But I’m afraid I might only have a few short months or even weeks left before it officially explodes. Then I’ll be stuck without access to my blogging or writing.
This month (July) I decided to start saving for a new one before anything bad happens. I hope to have one by October this year, depending on any extra income.
My plan is to take up extra bookkeeping and blogging/writing on the side, then take all the proceeds and put towards my laptop goal.
I’m looking to get another Dell laptop, just a normal XPS Home & Office series, since I don’t need many extras.
July Savings Goal – $1,300
- Regular savings – $150 (pay myself first)
- Freelance writing – $0
Total saved this month – $150
Amount to go – $1,150
Please leave me some good suggestions for laptops you recommend or use!
