Hopefully this is makes it to the 20.00 challenge room. Because I am in. I really dont know what i want to do as of yet. there are a few ideas but nothing firm yet. But I am excited about this challenge. Becasue it forces me to look out side the box.

One thing I have been toying with is actually paying myself 25 cents whenever I discuss this sight or others like it. For instance when I help someone who is struggling with money issues by giving them advice or sharing ideas that I have learned over the years.

What do you think of this idea? One thing it forces me to think of ways of saving money and helping others.

I can't call it a hobby but I really enjoy reading and listening about ways to save and invest money. I am really happy I found this site.

A side note:
Many thanks to all of you. Since reading a lot of archived info from this site, I opened a seperate savings account. I call this my dream account. What to put in it? You guys and gals opened the flood gates for me. So many ideas. Many thanks.

This is what I did to start my account! It made perfect cents to me. LOL
I decided to take a personal history of my interest over the past five years, from CDs and savings savings accounts. I am really focussing in on Compound interest and all. I decided not to move money from my investments. That was too confusing. I didnt get into any of the investments. Just simple savings.

Its not a lot but I opened my dream account with 500.00. From now on I will add my interest into this account. I want to watch it explode and grow.
