Steadily Contributing to the IRA

After I ran my July numbers, I found some extra money lying around and used it to add $500 to my Roth IRA which brings my total contributions for the year to $4,300!  I’ve updated the graph in my sidebar to reflect the changes.  Now, I only have $700 to go before I hit the $5,000 limit.  Once it is fully funded, I will either increase contributions to my emergency fund, to the Vanguard Investing fund or perhaps pay a little extra to my student loan.
