  1. I want to go to Vietnam with my family of 5 in July 2011. I only to pay for my own plan ticket, which is around 2000 dollars. To save up for this, I need to save my 20 dollars allowance I get each week. And by June 2011, I should be able to have around 2000 dollars, which will get me my plane ticket.

  2. I want to study and get my permit. I tried taking it last year, but didn't pass. To reach my goal, I will study daily and quiz myself as well. I will study for 20 minutes before I go to bed. I would like to reach my goal by this summer, so I can begin working towards getting my licenses.

  3. I want to give a shoutout to all my bloggers reading this out there!!! Holla :) Just kidding. So my goal is going to take a really long time... I want to save up for some UGG slip ons. They are $140.00. So my plan is to beg my dad, if that doesn't work I will resort to plan B. That is to find a money income, which will mostly likely be doing my chores. That's $15.00 every other week. So when calculated that will take about 2 1/2 months. Sike!!! Me with money for 2 1/2 months??? My S.M.A.R.T. goal will most likely be achieved in like a year if I'm lucky.

  5. I want to get a biomedical internship at PSU for the summer. To do so I have to write many essays and invest my time in researching which particular area I would like to go in to. It will cost me about 50 dollars in gas and trimet passes for the entire summer. I have enough saved up right now, so it is just a matter of keeping it saved. I will also give lessons soon so for other stuff. I need to have essays done by the end of February. It is an intermediate term goal.

  10. I would like to go to a prestigious college such as Stanford, Berkley, or the University of Washington. I will do so by working hard, such as turning in all of my assignments and studying for all of my tests, in all of my classes which will maintain my high G.P.A. I will also study very hard for my S.A.Ts by taking S.A.T prep classes. I will apply to all of these colleges to keep my options open. To pay for my tuition I will apply for scholarships, such as the scholarship that is available to me through my dad's union which allots the recipient who writes the best essay with 40,000 dollars. The estimated cost is about 150,000 dollars and i plan to achieve this goal by September 2010. Therefore this is a intermediate - term goal.

  12. My SMART goal is to earn enough money to pay for the Disneyland Choir trip in May 2012. The approximate cost for the trip is $900. I will save $40 a month from my job. In September of '09 i will sell entertainment books and hope to earn about $100. This summer throughout June and August I will do car washes and plan to earn around $200. By earning all this money I will easily be able pay for the trip!

  13. I want to go on a trip with my best friends, Nik and Tiff, to Trout Creek, Washington for the Paranormal Research Society field trip to a UFO ranch. We will do this by saving our money. Tiff will pay for most of it with her job, so she will contribute about $400. Nik has $2000, so he can pay for himself if he wants to go. I will use any money I have, the $100 or so that I will be making soon and then I will try and get a weekend job to help pay for the trip. All three of us will be getting our driver's licenses sometime in April, so we can drive the two-hour trip. We will need a total of about $800 to $1000. That total includes lodging, gas, food, and the tickets for the field trip. The field trip is on May 15, 16, and 17. It is a realistic distance away and we can make the money. All that might be hard to do is finding an adult who can go with us. This goal is for the next four months, so it is intermediate-term.

  14. my goal is to buy a car. since it is somewhat difficult for me to save money, i would prefer to get a used car before september '09. during the summer, i can work with my mom at work and get a job at a local store. with all the money i earn, i can put it in the bank. that way, i won't be tempted to go on a shopping spree with my car money.

  15. I want to go on a road trip to Colorado and California with my three friends Keenan, Tyler, and Clifford within a month of graduating. We'll go snowboarding and paintballing at the same time in Aspen and then go surfing and wakeboarding in California. I've estimated that the cost will be around $5000 to cover for food, gas, and renting equipment. We'll drive Cliffords van and sleep in it to save money on motels. We've already started saving money and once we all have jobs, we will be able to save $50 a week each for 2 years

  31. My goal is to get my mother a big birthday present, for all the good things she has done. I plan to spend at least $600 on her. To accomplish that i would save up all the money i would get from my allowance, which has diffrent incomes everytime. But by a month i know i would have $110. So by the time i get to June i think it would be a perfect at least i would have $660 saved up for my mom's birthday present.
