    Week 3 paid :)
  • Good challenge but one key point, where is everyone storing their money? It will soon become too large to store in a jam jar and it's difficult not to dip into it if it's in a saving's account that allows DD.

    Another point is this money can also effectively become dead and reduce in value due to inflation if it's not put to use during the holding period.
  • I have just put my £3. My money would be dead if I just spent it on carp.
    I have a huge money saving tin and am saving in this.

    Week 3 and £3 in the pot (well technically it's a coin purse and will soon be too small) but I'm sure I can cope and fine something larger ;)
