Default Saving journal?

I went to my control panel to send a pm and saw the 'savings journal button' I figured it would take me to my journal but instead it took me to a summary type screen saying I have 11 posts and $0.33 balence? What does that mean?

We pay you to write your journal It isn't much because we don't want people posting messages in their journal for the money, but at the same time, we feel that a money saving journal is an important way to know where you are financially and to help motivate you to use your money in a positive way for the things you want. Therefore we pay $0.03 for each journal entry you make to help encourage you. The saving journal button is your running total so you can keep track of it if you want. Just let us know when you want to cash out and we will send you the money by paypal.

Default Re: Saving journal?

I tried to set up a journal, but I couldn't figure out how to do it. I would like to keep one on success and failure on saving/spending money. I can figure out how to read other people's journals, but not how to start one.

Good night everyone, and have a Merry Christmas.

Sorry I didn't get the information to you sooner...just took a look and it seems you figured it out on your own.

Thanks Jeffery. I can't believe all that you do for us. By the way, I would be interested in that book that you're writing. Do let us know when it's available.

Does anyone know how to read the comments people leave on our journals? I see that I have 1 comment, but I don't know how to read it.

Simply hit the "discuss" button at the bottom of the entry page and the comments will come up.

I'm glad to hear your finding the site useful. That's the reason we created it and we hope we can continue to add useful information and tools as time goes on. No worry about letting you know when the book is done

Just to let everyone know, we no longer pay for the journals. Instead, you receive points. We made this change over several months ago.
