Someone posted this on their facebook page and I immediately thought it would be interesting to try this.

It looks simple enough. Well, the weeks later in the year will be difficult but it is worth a try. And I might actually try to put in more at the beginning of the year so that later in the year will be easier. Wouldn't it be great to have that in a savings account at the end of the year??
I have also decided to do this for Ladybug -- in a modified version. Instead of starting at $1, I am starting with $.10 for her. So at the end of the year I should have $137.80 saved up for her. But on top of that I am going to attempt to pay back all the money I took from her savings account when we moved last year. She had just over $500 in her account at that time. Plus she will have $100 from my grandfather for her birthday last year and by the end of the year another $100 from him (if he is still alive by the end of the year). So with any luck she should have about $850 in her savings account by the end of the year.
If I can lower my debt or at least not add to it and save all of that then by the end of the year I will definitely be wealthier in a measurable way.
