What's been happening in your world this week? anything exciting or fun? Tell us in the comments - you could win some EDS tokens 😁.
More about EDS tokens
EDS tokens are a low-risk income token, ideal for people who want to save. There were only 20,000 originally and they were all sold at 1 Hive each, with guaranteed earnings of 12% each year. You can now acquire EDS tokens through the EDS Miner token.
Earnings come from powering up and leasing out the Hive that came from selling the tokens, plus earnings from posts and comments each week. EDS pays out every Monday evening: last week the pay out was equivalent to 20%.
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
Image by Peggy and Marco Lachmann-Anke from Pixabay This is where @susie-saver's savings are going. What are you going to do with yours?
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:
Right click on the image, save it to your computer and then print it out.
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, 27th March, was 5.81p. Next week, we'll be saving 6.30p and by Saturday we'll have savings of 43.74p.
Each week, I'll be buying Hive for @susie-saver's account with the pennies we've saved.
Here's this week's results - 5.81p buys 11.39 Hive.
136 Hive saved in 13 weeks! Plus we're earning 3.22% inflation on powered up Hive. Let's see what @susie-saver's investments will bring!
EDSM are paying a good return at present: as well as weekly income, EDSM holders are mining EDS tokens. This week, @susie-saver bought 1.1 EDSM bringing her total to 3.5 - she's aiming for 5 EDSM, then she'll choose another investment.
Today, @susie-saver's Hive account is worth 26.11p and the Hive-Engine account is worth 32.00p = 58.11p in total. Pennies saved = 37.44, so we're doing pretty well with our investments.
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 😁.
Sign up here with us to start your savings journey:
- just leave a comment below if you want to join the challenge.
- follow @eddie-earner so you never miss a post (Eddie has lots of ideas about how to make money - he's the earner, I'm the saver - you'll like his posts).
- share this post if you think your followers might be interested.
2. The Golden Pig Tip
Image by 3D Animation Production Company from Pixabay
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.
This Week's Golden Pig Tip
This week's tip is from @fruityfruitz, who wins an extra EDS token:
"My tip would be to have a practical and workable budget and be aware of it. I think that helps to prevent irrelevant spending and makes us more goal-oriented re finances."
Thanks @fruityfruitz!
And today is always a good day to start saving - you can start on Day 1 or make up the first thirteen 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.
Today's post by @shanibeer writing as @susie-saver.

Congratulations to this week’s winners.
Hi @bearmol, how's things? What have you been up to?
This week I introduced one of my colleagues to the blockchain and received .01 HIVE. But a greater gain is the fact that I have a colleague I can now have conversations with about HIVE/PEAKD. I also spent some time working on improving the quality of my most recent posts and received my highest upvote to date.How about you @shanibeer?
That sounds like good progress 😁.
Me, I have been mainly working this week, there was a big meeting on Thursday that needed a lot of preparation and then I always like a Tidy Friday, clearing my desk and finishing things.

Yay indeed! Thanks for the EDS.
As I mentioned last week I wanted to make use of my extra DEC and get into the DEC/BUSD pool. After 4 hours of trying I finally managed to do so. I wasted a lot in fees but at least I'm in the Farm.
Tomorrow I will check my earnings. It's really complicated though and I don't now where I can go to find out exactly how much I paid in fees. Consequently, I won't know at what point it turns into a positive investment. Then there's the whole impermanent loss thing. For now, I'm just telling myself that it's better than having the DEC sitting there doing nothing.
Have a fun weekend!

And you're learning and having fun? 😂
Well done, though. I don't even know what any of those words (impermanent loss, pool ...) mean.
!ENGAGE 30
Learning definitely. Having fun? Depends at what point in the process you ask me. 😂
Well now I'm feeling smart. Not that I'm totally sure what they mean either but I have a better idea today than I did this time last week so that's progress. 😊

tokens.Thank you
Congratulations to the winners! Looks like last week I forgot to say hi :)
But I'm here now, sharing what I did this week.
I bought more CUB and put it in the DEN. Also ended up with some BTC. Moved my remaining Steem to Binance, bought BTC as there's not much option when it comes to Steem. Initially I wanted to trade BTC to BNB and move BNB to Binance Smart Chain but the price of BTC started to drop, so I had to cancel the order. Thus I'm holding some BTC now.

I'm feeling dizzy! 😂
You sound like you know what you are doing, though - great to hear and good o see you!
Lol, wait as i edited the text before posting, and spelled out BSC (Binance Smart Chain) as it looked like some kind of coded message :D
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Lol, yes, sometimes @gillianpearce's comments look like code 🙂
Wait. Eh? What?
You saying I use too many acronyms? That's probably because I don't know what many of them actually stand for. 😂

tokens.Thank you for the opportunity! It was a perfect start of the day to read a notification for another EDSM added to the stash! Love such days!
I've managed to invest even more than planned. At the start of the month, I pay myself first, where I put the money into investments and after every week passes, the remainder of money that has been budgeted is added to the investment pool. We noticed that we spend less money lately, even if we buy higher quality food (mostly bio and organic).
Have a good week!

That's interesting, isn't it? I find the same. I guess we are behaving more intentionally. 🙂
This is so true! This little things have such a big impact in the end, Pareto I would say.

First, congratulations to: @alexvan for winning the EDSM Contest.
Second, congratulations to @fruityfruitz and @gillianpearce for winning the WheelofNames.
Third, thanks so much @fruityfruitz for the Golden Pig Tip for this week. I agree with you that having a reasonable budget creates an awareness of our overall situation. If you know how much of your disposable income you're allowed to spend, you will be more aware and not go over that amount. Hopefully. Spending funds meant for savings or another project just spins you off into another direction not knowing where additional funds will come fund. It's hard to replace earmarked money.
Last, @eddie-earner here is my Week 13 Saturday Savers Club post highlighting my activities during this past week.

I have every had a good weekend so far. Take care, and have a nice week ahead.
😃Thank you @justclickindiva.
You’re right, spending funds meant for savings does get one off track. It changes the direction of things.
Thanks for the mention and have a wonderful week.
