So i’m sure you’ve all seen the Facebook post or the pinterest pin about the 52 week money challenge. Well i’m trying it, and I’ve been at it since my aunt told me about it in the second week of January… and I’ve kept up with it! It goes like this, there are 52 weeks in a year, and for each week you save that amount. For example, the first week, you save $1, the 5th week you save $5 totaling $15 saved. The build up continues each week, until you reach the last week of the year. The real challenge is when you arrive at weeks 32-52, that’s a chunk of money to set aside! When you’ve successfully accomplished the 52 week money challenge, you should have saved a total of $1,378! As I’ve been doing this challenge, I always think to myself, I could be putting more away or adding to this savings amount that I’m working towards. But either way, money put away, is money put away. I think this challenge is easy for someone who is on a budget, and cannot put a certain percentage of their money away at a particular time. I’m sure it will also be a major accomplishment when you’ve reached week 52. Here’s a link for the visual “savings card” Happy Savings!
