{Life} New Year, New Things #4 Money – The 52 Week Challenge
You have probably seen the 52 Week Challenge floating around on the internet. I was going to do it in 2013 after seeing this post on blogher and just never got around to it but I have already started it for 2014.
Basically each week you deposit the number of that week into a savings account. So, the 1st week of 2014, you would deposit $1.00, the second week $2 and so on. I am actually starting it backwards and doubling it, so for week one, I am stashing away $104.
Mind you this isn’t the only money goal/change that I am planning for the new year, but I think it’s a good one to add to the mix.
I am not using a jar like some people have mentioned but instead, transferring the funds to an account that I don’t have immediate access to, to ward off any “dipping” on my part because, let’s be serious now, I know myself. 🙂
