Make Money Make Cents

Making Cents of Your Money

March 3, 2012

Weekly Recap

   This was a long week.  I had some issues at work that were finally resolved on Friday, but caused a little stress.

My Alexa rating dropped below 1 Million which I am happy about.  200 k here we come!

I began my training for a half marathon last week.  I ran 13.5 miles this week, which is about what I

should have run.  Every week this number will increase by about 2-3 miles.

 

My favorite headlines from the week

-          Apples worth of $500 billion tops Poland

-          Dow still can’t penetrate 13k

-          Bear gives birth to triplets

-          Worker nails hand to roof

Savings Update

I have recently paid off my car and refinanced my mortgage, WOOHOO.  But now I have to put that money away.  I figure the best way to commit is by posting a monthly update of my savings balance.  That way all of you can dig in if the balance isn’t growing as expected.  Thanks in advance for the support! I accept all types of encouragement ranging from insults, bullying, and digs in order to meet my savings goal.

Starting Balance: $6541

Monthly Contribution Goal: $500

Actual Contribution: $1000

Ending Balance: $7541
