Are you up for the 52 week money challenge?
Hello friends, it has been quite a while. I've been around from time to time but I've been very quiet. I have so much going in so I just drop in to check up on things once in a while. Tonight however, I thought I'd share something with you. "Money" is the main factor that brought us all here I believe. For some we want to make money and for others we want to make more money but regardless, money is the common denominator.
I am almost certain that most, if not all of us have heard at least once that no matter how little or much money we make, saving should be a priority. Sometimes we struggle to save, especially for those of us that are simply trying to make ends meet. Sometimes we intend to save whatever is left, after we have budgeted for everything else, disregarding the fact that savings aught to be a vital item on our budget and not an afterthought.
The chart below might be helpful to establish a regime for saving. Ideally, I think, it is probably intended to begin on 1st January (which is just two days away) but obviously it doesn't matter when it is started. There have even been suggestions that it be done backwards, so it gets easier as time goes by.
I know this saving scheme won't be possible for everyone, but it might be possible for some. I'd like to try it. Does anyone thinks they are up for it ?

Hi. Nice to see you after a long time. Thank you for this great money saving idea. It's amazing how much you can save in one year without much effort. It's just about consistency, patience and discipline. What's even better, you can apply this to anything you want to improve in your life. Let's make 2015 an amazing year!
Hey, it is good to see you back. It is quite achievable, but as you said, consistency, patience and discipline are necessary. All the best for the year ahead.

The mind set for successful savings is to "pay ourselves first". It does become a habit and eventually you'll do it without even thinking about it, and, you won't even miss it.
That is true Westie.
