Make goals SMART
Specific amount, measurable progress, achievable monthly saving, relevant priority, time-bound deadline.
Use the Savings Goal Calculator to see how much to save each month.
Turn goals into monthly numbers
A goal without a monthly saving amount is a wish. For each goal — house down payment, car, emergency fund, vacation, education, retirement, debt-free living — write: target amount, deadline, already saved, and monthly contribution.
Use the Savings Goal Calculator to reverse-engineer the monthly amount. Track progress in ExMan with an Investments/Savings category.
Frequently asked questions
How many financial goals should I have at once?
Focus on 1–3 active goals. Too many splits focus and slows progress.
Should I pause SIPs for short-term goals?
Keep long-term SIPs if possible. Fund short-term goals from a separate savings bucket.
