Hello Everyone,

Welcome to Saturday Savers Club with Susie Saver.

Exciting news this week - it's my birthday!

Yes, I'm 21 for the 45th time! Yay!

What's been happening in your world this week? anything exciting or fun? Tell us in the comments - you could win some EDS tokens 😁.

But first, this week's EDS winners!

Last week we had comments from @alexvan @erikah @gillianpearce @ericburgoyne @jfang003 @eirik @solymi @khan.dayyanz @chrisparis @bearmol @ayhamyou

We didn't hear from @justclickindiva last week, it looks like there was bad weather where she is - hope you are okay and things are better this week 🙂. Here's @justclickindiva's savings progress post - things are starting to pick up with more than .5 Hive joining her savings each day!

Okay, everyone who commented last week went into the WheelofNames and two winners came out:

@erikah and @solymi - Congratulations!

Check your Hive Engine wallets Saturday Savers!

Thank you for taking part in Saturday Savers Club, everyone!

More about EDS tokens

EDS tokens are a low-risk income token, ideal for people who want to save. There are only 20,000 and they were all sold at 1 Hive each, with guaranteed earnings of 12% each year.

Earnings come from powering up and leasing out the Hive that came from selling the tokens, plus earnings from posts and comments each week. Each EDS token is now worth about 1.10 Hive, a nice slow steady increase - that's what we like. EDS pays out every Monday evening: last week the pay out was equivalent to 13.2% and that's after only six months in existence.

EDS Miners (EDSM) are coming soon - find out about them in this post.

There are 10 EDS for sale at the original price of 1 Hive this week (correct at the time of writing). Alternatively, you can put in a buy order at a lower price. Check the Hive-Engine market.

Back to business ...

We're going to be here every Saturday through the year growing a little savings honey pot, if you have plans for saving or getting to a different place this time next year - maybe $5 Hive by the end of the year 🤑?

Whatever it is, stick with Susie Saver through the year and we'll get there. Along the way, we'll share lots of tips and tricks for saving and how to get the knack of making your money work for you and not the other way round.

Let's Get Started

We're using the 365 Penny A Day Challenge framework for the Saturday Savers Club. We're aiming to save £667 worth of pennies by the end of the year.

You can use the sheet below to track your progress:

Okay, let's check in ...

1. Check Progress

Each week, we're going to check in through this post and see where we are up to. Our target for today, 6th March, was 4.34p. Next week, we'll be saving 4.83p and by Saturday we'll have savings of 26.31p.

Each week, I'll be buying Hive for @susie-saver's account with the pennies we've saved.

Here's this week's results - 4.34p buys 15.175 Hive.

Nearly 100 Hive saved in 10 weeks! Plus we're earning 3.22% inflation on powered up Hive: see how our 50HP has increased?

How much did you save this week? Did you meet your target? Or did you save even more?

Being accountable to another person or a group is a great way to motivate yourself to save (or anything you want to achieve). Of course, you need the right kind of people around you - ones that think what you're trying to do is worth doing ... or at least fun 😁.

2. The Golden Pig Tip

Every week, we're going to share a Golden Pig Tip for saving. By the time you've tried them all you'll have £670 saved.

Last week, we talked about using your savings to earn active and passive income and some of the easier ways you could do this.

This Week's Golden Pig Tip

This week's tip is:

Know your attitude to risk

Are you a cautious person, careful about taking risks? Or are you devil-may-care, take a chance and maybe win the big rewards and not worry too much if you lose everything.

Susie Saver is your sensible auntie: she's going for EDS income tokens which bring a steady income over time. She's going to use that income to compound her savings.

So, she's borrowed a little Hive at no interest and invested her liquid Hive in 50 EDS tokens. Let's see what happens with them.

What's your attitude to risk? How do you decide which tokens to buy?
Tell us in the comments - and remember to let us know your favourite savings tips!

And today is always a good day to start saving - you can start on Day 1 or make up the first ten weeks to catch up with @susie-saver.

That's it for this week. Hope you've enjoyed it and look forward to seeing you next Saturday with progress so far and our next Golden Pig tip.
