    Also, on my internet travels I found a great website called litemind. It is fantastic for lifestyle tips and on top of that they have the greatest book summaries ever in the form of mind maps so you can read some great business/self help books for free essentially.


    Many thanks for the link :) Another great site on improving yourself is https://www.lifehacker.com.


    Another site which I am yet to look at indepth is http://www.cosmolearning.com/ which provides lots of free video courses anywhere from entrepreneurship to programming to erm Dentistry.

    I've just sold £14 worth of stuff today on ebay!!! and still got some listings to finish and more listings to create-and tonnes of stuff to get rid of!!!!.
    When people laugh at your dreams it's not nice-but when you're sitting on a nice tidy sum-be it 1k, 2k, 5k, 10k-whatever, make sure you tell said people how they wasted their time and you are fulfilling your dream-oh...and enjoy spending the money, whether it's on getting bills down or whatever, but make sure you treat yourself too!!

  • You know you are focused when its 1am, and you think its 8pm...I was just about to hoover too, but I don't think my neighbours would love me for that. So I'll go back to my business plan and making things :)

    Hope everyone's having a productive night (if they are awake!)

    I'm being silly i know! HOWEVER! I'm so angry right now - silly angry, not real angry. My Mum laughed at me about the ten K goal saying 'oh well good for you hahahha' and my OH said 'stop wasting your time on MSE' Agggghhhh. I feel irritated. I know there are bigger problems out there - and i have some of them too - but this has still irritated the hell out of me! GRRRRRR. This is meant to be a thread of opportunity and dreams and it goes against the grain when others doubt that!

    Not nice when double barrel, both mum and OH!! With the mum I would just not bother telling her much about it until you have some good news to share, you know, just out of the blue drop into the conversation, oh, you know that 10k goal? Am at 4k now, so how has your [insert medical problem] been going? (sorry that may be a bit cheeky but was trying to think of an example hehe).

    The OH though sit down with him and explain what you are trying to do and how he could help? If worst come to worst, borrow the whip! :eek:

    Hi there,what is garage salling ? I have to say that we all do that,get some money,reinvest ,only to have a task to get back where we were !
    But you have to do this somhow otherwise your stock runs dry,it;s a fine line sometimes.....

    Thanks Bing0 and I know! Keep thinking by the end of the year I will think nothing of it, and hey it makes the Frugal Living challenge easier because I still feel like I am getting some retail therapy lol...

    The garage salling, they call them yard sales in America if that sounds familiar, is our version of car boot sales I guess which are uncommon here, but you get a list from the paper on Friday and there will be 15-30 houses and from 6am you go around and buy stuff directly from them and can be big stuff like beds which I guess is harder at car boots lol. Gnerally all the stuff you can buy is in the garage ... lol. Do they never do that in the UK?

    What is this Bingo Britain stuff?? It sounds interesting??

    its an online bingo site which kind of pays you to play once youve deposited and wagered 10 quid

    you get 5 pounds bonus money each day to play after you play the day before and theres not many players so you have a fairly good chance of winning

    obviously its at your own risk
