What are the goals that you want to achieve? What are you doing to accomplish them? Do you think that you have a reasonable shot at meeting your deadline?

and what have you been doing to work towards that? are there a lot of laws in your state that govern them? have you found funding for one?

I'm hoping to buy my first house within the next month or so. I've found a few that I really like, but, I haven't found one for the right price yet.

In 5 years..wow I'll be 39 and my son will be 17...Stable money-wise, ready to send my son off to college if that's what he chooses to do. Happy, a home, my dream vehicle...

My ultimate goal in five years is to have my daughter graduated from high school. I plan to sell my home and use the proceeds to finance her education (with a heck of a lot of loans!). I think it's reasonable because she's scheduled to graduate in 2011 anyway. But...(and there's always one) where I'd like to see myself in five years is with my boyfriend (living together, anywhere), graduated from school and working (I dunno what, whether it's in sales in the field I'm in or as a graphic artist, which is what I'm studying). I'm not asking for a heck of a lot for myself. I think it's reasonable because my boyfriend and I have discussed this but he's aware I can't move from where I live because I want my daughter to graduate from a good school (best in the county!) and he can't move because he'd like his son to graduate from his school (no comment on his!) and I'm trying to defer my loans for my education for as long as I can!

I hope to have a child by then, and also own my own home with my partner (who will by then be my husband!) and also hope my bridal makeup business will be thriving!

I will be 40 years old--my daughter will be a high school graduate (I think I'm going to drop out of school--I'm not getting anywhere and it's tiresome!) and I hope to finally be living with my guy. I think I've given up all other hopes and dreams--I'm just really discouraged right now.

In the next five years I hope to get married, have a baby, and buy a house. I think that they are pretty reasonable goals, but I'm not doing much to help accomplish them right now.
