What this did for me was to help me build a concentration for some of the tokens that differed from my Hive Goals. This year, it's going to be a little different for me. I still don't have much to save but there is still some concentration.

My 2023 Saturday Savers Club Plan With @sally-saver

I'm driven to save every way I can starting with my primary & secondary focus in building my SPI & BXT. In addition to saving on Hive, I am also saving offline in my native currency (USD), also following the 365 daily compound plan.

Main Focus SPI & BXT

SPI - Primary & BXT - Secondary

Once again I managed to pull a little out of the hat and managed to add a little to my primary & secondary goals.

Let's see Week #5 progress;

The chart shows what I could add, I still managed to be above where I should be. I know that with SPI I earn for my holdings & I'm not sure but I assume the same with the BXT.

My 365 Plan

This is where I attempt a bit much but, I need to hold more of these tokens & it's not going to happen by me just saying it. Some of these tokens are a bit on the pricey side for me, but right now I see them as fair game while the prices are down a little. Although this is a day-by-day plan, there may be times when I have a little extra to spend and what better way to spend it then for my savings goals.

This is where I stand as of week #5;

This chart shows you what I held at the beginning of the year, what I added since then or what I needed to add to catch the balance up to todays correct totals. I will be adding just what I need each week, so the totals here are to reflect my savings as well as my actual to show what I hodl as some of these tokens are rewarded to me for various reasons.

Offline Savings

I am also saving offline on the 365 Plan, I sure can use $667.95 at the end of the year, how about you.

For this task I had to make my own chart to follow as while the one they used in the Saturday Savers Club was definitely okay, but I find that it gets a little confusing further down in the chart. If you find that's the case for you & you like my chart, feel free to make use of it. (Full Quarter Chart) It's an MS Excel file which will copy & paste easily to almost any software. I only put out 1 quarter at a time.

Crazy thing happened this week! When I went to update my chart, I couldn't find the file. After much searching, I found that my Excell settings for auto save was off so when my computer shutdown for an automatic update, it didn't make a recovery file for my chart. Now I must redo the whole muffafluggan thang!!

Saving For A Unicorn

My Bank Is Growing!!

I've had this bank for a while now & before I decided to use it for my savings it was nearly full & held nearly $20. I like Unicorns and that's what made me buy this bank. 'Saving for a Unicorn' as if that's possible, Unicorns are mythical creatures but somehow, they have been used as a symbol of many things. It's also a symbol for the group that bought me to hive, #ctp (https://ctptalk.com), we believe that every cent made is another cent toward saving a Unicorn.

Weeks 4/5 comparison

Saving For a Unicorn! Can you see the difference? It may not be much but it's a little more. Added $1.75 for a total of 4.06 as of Jan 28, 2023. .

Where does my savings come from?

My savings come from all the change I find in the bottom of my purse mostly. When I go to the stores & I use cash I usually just drops the change in my purse and after a couple of days I get all the change out & put it somewhere. It usually would go in my bank, but now I have a change cup. I will only put the designated amount in the bank that I need to. All other change will go into my change cup to help with the times when the daily amount exceeds what I have. As we get later in the year the amounts will become a little on the higher side and I know I won't have $2 or $3 a day to put in the bank, So Here's my 'Change Cup' now;

At times I will also just get some rolls of coins just to add to the change cup. Usually, I don't save many quarters since I use them for doing laundry, but even every now & then I put a few in the bank.
