With 2015 approaching, I wanted to formally put together my goals for the next year. Ever since Lanny wrote about his goals last month, I have been hard at work thinking about my goals.

It reminds me that while I should be focused on growing my portfolio and sprinting towards financial freedom, you still can’t forget about your life and building those memories that you will tell your kids and grandkids about. I should achieve this balance in 2015, so lets take a look at my goals for the year!

Crushing $4,000 in Projected Dividend Income
I am on a mission here. It’s weird, we just transitioned our blog to a newly hosted domain site – this just helps solidify the goal myself and Bert are trying to attempt – Financial Freedom. I have started the year off with an initial dividend income projection goal of $3,200 and decided to not achieve it, but CRUSH it. What exactly am I doing to do this, where is my goal currently at and why?
