What you actually do first
- Week 1: save 1 — Week 1 of 52 · deposit 1 · 1 banked after this week. Automate it now so week twenty does not depend on remembering. Use your selected currency, and reduce or skip the amount if depositing it would create hardship, fees, or debt.
- Week 2: save 2 — Week 2 of 52 · deposit 2 · 3 banked after this week. Move the money the day income lands, not the day before the next one. Use your selected currency, and reduce or skip the amount if depositing it would create hardship, fees, or debt.
- Week 3: save 3 — Week 3 of 52 · deposit 3 · 6 banked after this week. If this week is tight, deposit a reduced amount and log it — a skipped week is not a failed plan. Use your selected currency, and reduce or skip the amount if depositing it would create hardship, fees, or debt.
- Week 4: save 4 — Week 4 of 52 · deposit 4 · 10 banked after this week. Check the destination account is still the one you named. Use your selected currency, and reduce or skip the amount if depositing it would create hardship, fees, or debt.
- Week 5: save 5 — Week 5 of 52 · deposit 5 · 15 banked after this week. Notice which spending this deposit actually displaced. Use your selected currency, and reduce or skip the amount if depositing it would create hardship, fees, or debt.
- Week 6: save 6 — Week 6 of 52 · deposit 6 · 21 banked after this week. Do not raid the total to cover something you could have planned for. Use your selected currency, and reduce or skip the amount if depositing it would create hardship, fees, or debt.
- Week 7: save 7 — Week 7 of 52 · deposit 7 · 28 banked after this week. Compare the running total to the goal and re-state why the goal matters. Use your selected currency, and reduce or skip the amount if depositing it would create hardship, fees, or debt.
