On my other blog I have started a moneymaking challenge where you start with nothing and eventually have a whole lot
more. It might sound silly, but I really think it is doable. You start out by
finding money, so looking for it on the street and things for a few weeks to a
month, then do what you can to double that money.
I found more than most of my readers, which
was not intentional. I started with over $20 and so far have managed to spend
$4.95 and turn that into $13, which I am pretty happy with. The aim is to
double your money each time. So if you found $1, do something to turn it into
$2, then that $2 into $4 and so on.
Obviously the higher you go, the harder it
gets, but I do think it is possible and there are lots of opportunities and
things out there. You just need to set your mind to it and the opportunities
will flow.
I decided for the smaller amounts my best
bet is probably buying things to resell so that is what I have been doing. I
got a few items of brand name kids clothes from a second hand store, washed
them and listed them for sale on Facebook. I love selling on Facebook because
it is free and so much quicker than eBay.
I joined a garage sale group on Facebook in
my area and it has been fantastic not just for selling but for finding things
we have wanted for our home for very cheap.
I think the hardest part about this money
making challenge will be not spending the money. So far, most of the money I
have made throughout my journey to become a millionaire ended up getting spent
last year when we had pretty much no work and high expenses. I am grateful I
had that money to fall back on, but it feels like I am starting from scratch in
a way, but at the same time it feels like I have just been setting the
groundwork for the past 2.5 years and now things will flourish.
On the one hand I may not be that close to
my millionaire goal, but I now have more income streams and opportunities, so
it has been worth it.
So are you interested in joining in the
money making challenge on my other blog?
Good luck on your challenge !I'm sure you'll rock it. I won't be joining in this round because .. well, I'm lazy this month. But maybe one day soon!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great challenge, I hope I can apply it to my weekly pay and double that :)
