Congrats on the success!! Site looks great, I can see why you have moved up so much! I too have seen some success, though I'd say mine is measured a bit different- I think its much easier to move up when you start at 5,500,000+ haha. .-= myfinancialobjectivesÂ´s last blog ..The Ultimate Motivator: Compounding Interest =-.

@Monevator, lol I try and stay away from that. For now, I'm hoping for 20% and anything above that is a gift.

Wow, I remember the good old days of 110% growth, though sadly that was my waist measurements, not my blog traffic. Isn't it fun putting it into a compound interest calculator though and seeing where STBS could be in a year at this rate? ;) .-= MonevatorÂ´s last blog ..Cash is king, or cash is trash? =-.

@Daniel, LOL, yes "we" are going to try. My husband finishes graduate school this summer and we'll be opening another Roth IRA with that money. Although I didn't think we could fully fund it by December 2010, now I know I have a few extra months, woot!!! Thanks! .-= Budgeting in the Fun StuffÂ´s last blog ..Let's Get Controversial - Paying for College for Kids =-.

@Budgeting in the Fun Stuff, You have it exactly right. So my 2009 window closes on April 15th, 2010, which is coming up very soon. Are "we" aiming to put away the full $10,000 away this year?

Congrats on the blog progress! I think the Alexa Challenge has been wonderful for all of us that are putting in the effort to make it work. Good luck on funding your Roth! .-= Jason @ MyMoneyMinuteÂ´s last blog ..Wine On A Budget: Oak Creek =-.

Could you help me understand the contribution target dates of Roth IRA’s? Do we have from January 2010 to April 15, 2011 to fund our 2010 Roth IRA? Is it like that every year?

It won’t affect us much right now since we finished off our 2009 Roth IRA in Dec 2009 and have already put $1900 towards 2010, but I’ve been curious since this is the second post I’ve read about finishing off a 2009 Roth IRA in 2010…
