Intentional Savings.

Saving is very good, that I can say and I know. I've had a lot of times in my life where it was my savings that came through for me. But then, to be sincere, presently I'm not saving as I would have loved too and I'm really planning on working on it.

As it is, I'm serving as a corp member, and every corp member or ex corp member should be able to relate well with how things are, especially if one is being posted to a different state where you have to relocate to, set things up, get an apartment and all. It's not easy surviving, but then I'm really trying to.

Of a truth, thy pay us allowances, but it's not even enough to foot every of the bills at the end of the day, the way things are a costly here, especially transportations is nothing to write home about. The allowances they pay us just disappear immediately it enters, and to save now becomes a problem. Because the focus is on surviving first.

But even with all of that, I've decided to be intentional, to watch my spending, to cut down on it, to adjust and to start saving properly. I know it's about the determination, if I keep saying the money is small, I will keep having reasons and excuses for not saving. But now, I'm ready to think ahead.

Presently, I'm doing a contribution where we pay a certain amount per week. I'm also on one where we pay a certain amount daily. The daily one is just some little amount of money, but the reason why I joined it is because we will get to receive our money after six months, and I feel that's long time and by then the money would definitely look big.

Another that I'm planning to engage in would be till next month, that's February, I've decided to begin removing a certain amount of money from my allowance per month and either join a group contribution or join a microfinance society.

Also, on hive, I want to really began to save out of my rewards. That which I've decided to save will be going into the staked account. That way, it would just be there growing slowly even though it may look small, am sure by the end of the year, with consistency it would be a lot bigger.

I will be sharing two of the reasons why I really want to save with y'all. By the eighth month of this year, I would be done with service and that means the end of the allowance I'm receiving. So, I really need to prepare ahead. For that reason, I want to learn a skill, one that will really last, one that will be in vogue for long. Also, I want to start a business, a physical one

And it's obvious none of it would come to reality without capital, so I really want to take the savings seriously...

So, that's how I'm saving and how I plan to save.
