saving money weekly

I came across a an idea called 52 Week Money Challenge. Let me share to you how it works. The idea is to save Php62,900.00 in 52 weeks(one year) and we start with only Php50.00.

What is it?

From the label 52 Week Money Challenge, it's a Challenge. It's about saving Money. It runs for 52 weeks (1 year). In a nutshell, you religiously save an increasing amount for the whole year.

How do you do it?

  1. For the first week, you save Php50.00.
  2. On the second week, you save the same amount as last week, which is Php50.00 - plus additional Php50.00. That's Php100.00
  3. On the third week, you save the same amount as last week, which is Php100.00 - Plus additional Php50.00. That's Php150.00
  4. On the fourth week, you save the same amount as last week, which is Php150.00 - Plus additional Php50.00. That's Php200.00
  5. You repeat the cycle for one year or 52 weeks.
  6. Enjoy your money.

Minimum Requirements:

  • Make sure you can wait for one year
  • You have an income for at least a year
  • You can afford to set aside the amount of the last week. If you are using Php50.00 as base, then that's Php2,600
Tips: 
  • Put it in a bank account to avoid the temptation of spending your money
  • Have a goal on how to use it when you are done. (eg. cellphone, project car, travel)
  • You can change the base depending on what you can afford. If you are a student you might want to start with Php10.00 or Php20.00
If you think this is not effective to you, then consider changing some of the parameters. Say, reverse it(which i am using). Start from the biggest amount(Php2,600). Or, if you have an erratic amount of income, then just choose what you can afford on the week. I'll be discussing this next time since i have just thought of it right now.

Happy Saving!

Contextual Stratification - Chapter 11: The Equation

  Putting It All Together We've spent four chapters unpacking the components: fields that define domains, scales that specify context, quanta that appear as observables, and measurability that constrains what can be observed. Each piece makes sense individually. Now we need to see how they work together. The equation Q=Fλ, Q⊆M looks deceptively simple. Seven symbols capturing a principle about how reality structures itself and how knowledge relates to that structure. But simplicity in form doesn't mean simplicity in implications. This chapter shows you how to use the equation, why it works, and what it reveals. Think of this equation not as a formula to calculate specific values, but as a generative principle, a rule for creating valid frameworks. Tell me your F and λ, and I'll tell you what Q you'll observe, constrained by what's in M. Change F or λ or encounter a boundary of M, and you need a new framework. The equation doesn't give you the framework itself; i...

Being Special and the Truth Beneath It

  There’s a moment in Hunger (2023) where the antagonist delivers a monologue meant to wound: questions about relevance, fear of failure, fear of losing everything once you become “special.” So... you're special now. How is it? Is it fun? It's scary, isn't it? From now on, all you will ever think about is, "When will I fall off the edge?" "Am I still relevant?" "Is this really for me?" You'll cling to your success at all cost without realizing what you've lost. Like Tone. You've lost him, haven't you? But don't panic yet. This is just the start. There is so much more for you to lose. That... is the price for being special. It’s dramatic, sure. But it’s philosophically wrong. Those questions have nothing to do with being special. It can only come from a regular fragile person thinking they are special. They describe the psychology of someone who depends on validation , not someone who carries an intrinsic difference. A...

rhymin

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...
