Sabrina’s Money Madness

On the GPT site that I used to frequent, I had accumulated some points that I needed to turn in. The site was supposed to close so all points had to be redeemed by the end of August.
I ordered a gift card and a bank. I got them both yesterday. The bank is yellow and […]

I had a decent month of May. My goal is $175-200 per month and I made it again. I plan on increasing the amount I expect to make starting in July.
Blogging income - $169.36
Survey income - $25
Total May online income - $194.36
 $70 is going into savings, $25 is going to my vacation club, $25 is […]

I love to read. I always have ever since I was a child. It really doesn’t matter what kind of book or magazine it is, as long as it’s compelling and holds my interest.
 I love personal finance magazines. Reading through them I always see articles that I love and articles that I don’t like as […]

I update my net-worth quarterly. I know a lot of people do it monthly, but I don’t feel like schlepping all of that paperwork out every month. I don’t have a lot of assets but it’s just a pain trying to add all of that stuff up.

 I don’t make bupkus. So when you multiply 3 x bupkus it’s not a very large number. I’m going to continue to […]

And the numbers are dismal. I need to up my savings. I’m slowing building them back up but with school, I dip into them fairly often. I know I will add an extra $500 to my savings by the end of the year. Anything over that will probably go towards tuition.
 I do have 3 months […]

I haven’t balanced my checkbooks in over a week. They’re a mess. This is one job I hate. Since each account serves its own purpose, mixing money can turn into a mess, which it usually does. I have 3 accounts and sometimes it’s hard to keep track of each account and its purpose.
One account is strictly for my […]

Yep, the money I was waiting for finally came. Now I have to decide what to do with it. I have some savings goals that I’m trying to reach and also some stock savings goals. So I have quite a bit of options for this tiny bit of money. That’s ok. I’ll just take my […]
