reversed 52 week money challenge

It's highly suggested that you read 52 Week Money Challenge first before proceeding with the article.

If you are still reading then I'll assume you know most about it already. Let's continue...

  1. So you can wait for one year? Very good.
  2. And you think that you'll have continuous income for a year? Even better.
  3. You can afford to set aside Php2,600.00? Cool!
  4. You think that the challenge will not work for you?(for some reason) Then try this one for size
Start from the biggest amount and work your way in reverse.

So, if you are using Php50.00 for your start week, then you start with Php2,600.00. e.g. as follows
  • 1st week - Php2,600.00
  • 2nd week - Php2,550.00
  • 3rd week - Php2,500.00
  • 4th week - Php2,450.00
  • etc... etc...
Hence, it's call Reversed 52 Week Money Challenge. Since it's the same challenge, but in reverse.

What is so different about it?

I just feel that I won't finish the challenge with the normal way of doing it. I felt that it would be such a drag that I have to shell out that much. And, it's easier to just lower down the amount you are saving every week. On the last week, I just have to let out Php50.00 and it's done.

But, if there are still people not satisfied with the reverse method, then wait till I discuss the selective method.

Happy Saving!

budgeting 101

to dig deep into envelope budgeting, i must simplify the term first. hence, i need to make sure i understand the word budgeting... budget. A budget (from old French bougette , purse) is a financial plan and a list of all planned expenses and revenues. It is a plan for saving, borrowing and spending -  wikipedia so, basing from the definition, it can be simplified as... (income - expense = 0) where income is defined(in my own words) as any monetary device labeled with currency which was received and/or is available to be consumed by the calculated expenses. while expense is a calculation of how the income will be used. some might ask where saving lies in the formula. since, i believe that it is one of the elements of expenses, let me extend the formula to: [income - (saving +other expenses) = 0] i still have doubts on this calculations, though. so, any comments and suggestions are encouraged for a healthy discussion.

i got stuck with words on this song that i want to finish by tomorrow. i have no instrument to use so im hoping to finish at least the lyrics. sad part is my rhyming brain is not that functional right now. so, i headed online to look for some sites or software that can help. here's what i got: analogx.com 's rhyme came to mind first as it's what i used before. a simple to install software that returns numerous results that, most of the time, ends up confusing. good thing is you can use it offline. so i started searching. 3d2f and the next one got my attention. but let me pour my heart out on this one first. one word: confusing! it gave me more list to figure out. so click on the first. then it lead me to several pages before i get to download. then, i have to figure out which of the links i needed. then after few minutes, i found it only to be more confused... i am to download a 249MB of a .dmg which turned out to be for mac engines and not for windows. i know, right?! w...
