I guess I’m shopping this weekend
I have to go to 2 or 3 stores this weekend. I’m not buying anything fun either. Most of it is lunch food for next week. I also have to start thinking about what I want to add to the lunch menu once we go to out new work location. I’m not big on sharing a refrigerator with 100 other people.
Hopefully in addition to helping me eat better, I should also be able to save some money. Whatever amount I save each week, or bi-weekly, will go into a separate account from my regular savings. Then once I have a large enough amount, I’ll buy gold bullion or gold coins for my portfolio. I can use the savings to buy discounted gift cards then buy the coins. Either way I should be able to get them under market value.
My goal for this year is one item but more than likely it will be a coin. However, if the stock market tanks like it did a few years ago, then I’ll go in and buy stock on the cheap. The last time that happened I gained at least 30% on my investment and that’s not bad at all.
Of course, there is always the very real possibility that I’ll just let my money sit in a savings account all safe and secure.
