Your top 10 finalists
Elise
Get my credit score to 1,200
To prove to myself I have beaten the foolish habits of my misspent youth! This way I can be more effective as a family member, friend & community member!
Tammie
Save $10,000 so my 10 year old can represent Australia in France at the World BMX Championships
We want to be able to give our kids everything we can. Our son, Joe, is hoping to make the BMX Australian team again early next year and in order for us to be able to send him to France we need to raise money.
Thomas
Start my newborn son’s investment portfolio, making regular contributions to grow it to $100,000 by his 18th birthday as a gift
Strong financial foundation for adulthood. Reaching $100,000 by age 18 will create opportunities for education, a home deposit, or starting a business, while reflecting my commitment to providing him with long-term security and future choices.
Hannah
To sit the Bar exams and be on the pathway to being a barrister
It would allow me more flexibility with my employment and to be there more for my son. As a single parent it can be challenging to chase your own goals while caring and supporting a child and giving them every opportunity to succeed.
Isabella
To rebuild my emergency savings
I was really sick for half of 2026, so I’m back at work and need to set a new goal. I'm hoping to rebuild my emergency savings in addition to some future fun savings. This would help bump me up and get my savings back on track.
Sharni
Save enough to visit South Africa and reunite with family we miss dearly
My partner’s family is across the world, and time together is priceless. Saving for this trip means creating memories, strengthening family connections, and finally sharing moments in person instead of through a screen. It would be a dream come true to bring everyone together.
Simon
I would like to break out of the rental trap by saving enough of a deposit to buy a property
This goal matters to me to free up time in my future to be present for my grand children rather than working to pay rent. Wisr helped me on that path through a loan to invest which I have paid off leaving me with growing assets I can add to.
Jade
Save up to build my cherished Nissan S15 with my partner
Some of my fondest childhood memories are watching my dad and brother work on cars, inspiring my own passion. Building a Nissan Silvia S15 with my boyfriend means everything, as it’s been his dream car since childhood. Saving throughout FY27 will help us build memories and a proud future together.
Jody
Start making extra payments on my loan and also save
I have been dealing with cancer the last two years - surgery, chemo and following more recent surgery I am now getting ready to finally get back on my feet financially - it takes so much but not my spirit!
Belinda
Learn to scuba dive and get my scuba diving license
I want to break out of my comfort zone and learn a cool new life skill. I love swimming and have always loved animals. Getting my scuba diving license is a way for me to learn more about underwater sea life and spend more time in the ocean.
