My Savings Journey with Saturday Savers Club: Update #2
This is day 80 since I started this journey, and this is the second time I am making this report. I am taking little steps to build my financial life by being keen on the droplets that can make an ocean by saving something daily. This is not the first time that I am trying this, but it's different this time, and it's working.
By being in a community that fosters financial growth, like Saturday Savers Club (SSC), it's a little easier to be more conscious of my growth and act accordingly. And, with these reports, I get to actually look back and observe. Hence, this is why I would keep making these reports as often as I could.
It's the little things that SSC does that may seem trivial at times that turn out to matter a lot in the long run. I don't always check in with my goals, and so the weekly tags on their update on their members' performances help me be reminded of my goals.
The goal is not just to have a stack of savings, Hive Power (HP), and tokens in my wallet. The goal is to become the kind of person who is conscious of and concerned about their financial well-being. That would consequentially bring me to act like such a person, like putting something aside in savings and always remembering to power up something for the day.
Speaking of powering up, I somehow missed a day in this month of November to power up. It wasn't until the next day that I realised it. It means that I wouldn't get the monthly powerup badge from @hivebuzz this month. I was bummed for a minute, but then I was reminded of the purpose of powering up every day.
The aim is to increase my stake as much as I can, and one way to do that is to power up every day, no matter how little. So missing a day and a badge doesn't imply that I am off track. It matters more that I am still going.

When I started this journey, I wanted to attain 4000 HP, 61 HBD in savings, and 100,000 NEOXAG staked in my hive-engine wallet. Now I have added LEO to the list, and I would like to attain 1,500 LEO at the end of the year. The table above shows just where I got to achieve all that as of October 22nd.

Overall, I am doing pretty okay with my stats. I massively surpassed my HBD expectations, though. It's the conscious decision to put some money aside whenever possible that made that happen anyway. The new goal is to reach 170 HBD. I hope to achieve this by continuing with my daily 0.5 HBD savings for the next thirty days.
I feel really elated to be making headway this time. It's an exciting journey, and I hope to keep going for the longest time. Until next month again, let's see how it goes.

Thank you, Shani! 😁
Your progress is amazing and I love the fact that your purpose in joining the club is to develop the habit of being conscious about your financial health. Sorry about missing a day for the PUM but like you said, you are still growing your HP. All the best!
It wasn't exactly smooth having to keep the thought of saving in mind everyday, but it became easier as I continued. It is a habit now.
Thank you, FG!
Great to see how motivated you are, and how much you were able to pass the goal you set for yourself. Good luck dear.
What's the SSC about?
Thank you, Meya.
Saturday Savers Club is simply a community here on Hive for savers. There's no community page, but there are ideas that are shared on how to build up savings. There are different plans too, but you can pick the one that works for you or even develop one for yourself. Like me, I chose to save 0.5 HBD and 1 HP everyday, alongside LEO and NEOXAG.
That's great!
How do I get the plans?
Hi. @hoosie
Help me out here?
Boss, you are doing great with your savings. I admire your determination and find this very inspiring. I just started saving though and believed this will be a massive opportunity for us to grow financially.
Thank you, bro.
It's very nice that you have joined the train now. It doesn't have to be anything elaborate. I am sticking with small inputs every now and then, as that's the easier way for me to do it. I wish you all the best, man.
Wow - looks like you have made great progress over the month - nice work ! And the more you have, the easier it is to get even more ! Your NEOXAG pile is quite impressive !
Best of luck for the coming month, and keep on stacking !!!

That's perfectly alright. Splitting it between the nominees is a good one.
thank you for nominating me this week. I am enjoying my time with Saturday Savers. I have that you had a great week and that the weekend is going fine for you.
Small steps repeated each day lead to great success over time, and you seem to be putting that into practice very well indeed! Congratulations on your great accomplishments so far, and I wish you fantastic success on smashing all your goals by year's end! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

I apologise for not responding. Somehow, I missed this kind comment.
Initially, I thought the amount I was putting in every were so insignificant. Now, with 115 days being consistent, it has stacked up real nicely. I am thankful for that.
Thank you!
No worries at all! It's really easy to miss comments and replies on Hive, especially when you have a lot of notification as I always do!
Yes, it's amazing how a little builds up over time! I've been watching it happen for 2+ years now, and it still blows me away!
You're so very welcome, absolutely! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
Your saving goals and progress is looking really good so far! 500 HP in a month is especially impressive.
Keep up the good work

I apologise for responding so late.
I didn't think I would hit that much HP gain in one month, but I did it somehow. The last month was less impressive, though. I am thankful nonetheless.
As long as there is increase, there is always a progress!
Very true
