Challenges

2025 is almost here and everything is going great, right??

We are continuing the 24 in 2024 challenges but have slightly adjusted the goal post for a new year - by $1!

Save $25 per week or $25 per month (whichever makes the most sense to you.)

If saving $25 per week or per month is easy for you, please check out one of the other challenges ALL get the same sticker, but the threads will have people at similar income/challenge levels.

If you can attempt the harder challenges, you may not join this challenge! But if you push yourself to try the 25% and life happens and you drop out of a bigger challenge I will welcome you with a big hug (credit to @Elle for that paragraph).

Basic rules:

  • The goal is to save $25 per week or month!
  • You can have a makeup month if you need it because life is hard.
  • If your income is not in USD, you can choose to save 25 in your currency (i.e. €25, $25 CAD, $25 AUD) OR save the equivalent to $25 USD (i.e. currently €24.00, $36.00 CAD or $40.15 AUD). Just state the path you’re choosing!
  • You can combine any type of savings: emergency fund, investing, debt repayment - to reach your goal.
  • You can choose household or individual savings, whichever you prefer.

What do you get:

  • Support on this thread as you go along - post weekly, monthly or quarterly check-ins as appropriate
  • A forum badge when you complete your goal for the year
  • A sticker mailed to you for participating towards your goal for the year
  • A shoutout on the podcast or livestream for reaching your goal

Please Tag @anomalily when you hit any goals so we can get you your badge!

I think I can do this challenge. I’m already committed to a $20/week challenge. An extra $5 per week on top of that should be doable.

I’m saving $25/week in Canadian Dollars.

@anomalily for those of us participating in other challenges for general savings, would it be legit to participate in this one for a specific sub goal? (In my case, education funding for my kid’s 529?) Or would you like that to just be rolled in to the other challenges?

Probably better to make a new challenge for that- just to keep them all based on general saving
