$20 Challenge

April 15th, 2008 at 12:23 am

I've been thinking about doing the $20 challenge so I perused some other people's entries to find out how people are doing it. I find it interesting that people are paying themselves to exercise. It's a great motivator but my question is - where does that money come from in the first place? You have to have the money to begin with in order to add it into the challenge money. So if I decided to pay myself $1 every time I go to the gym and I went to the gym 5 times in one week I'd give myself $5 toward the challenge. Well, I don't have the $5 to begin with. So instead of moving money from one pocket to another (paying myself) I'll have to find new ways to generate the $$ to add to the challenge. Surveys, loose change, etc. I usually put my change in my boys' piggy banks so I need to think this through a bit more. Hmmm, I need a plan.

    I agree with you, paying myself for certain tasks doesn't really work for me, because I don't have that extra money. I have been counting Ebay profits, overtime pay above my salary, and I will count survey checks as I get them in the mail. (I've already requested payment from a few, but don't want to count it for the challenge until I have the check in my hands).

    Just a few ideas, good luck!
