Great guns on the book front!
I've noticed my online banking now shows the bank details for everything if you click on the transaction.
I wonder if yours is the same?
If it's not adding up, compound it!3 -
Thanks 4 Seasons, Grogged and others who PM'd me.
I hit 32 downloads for yesterday and today I am on 23 so far. Very, very excited.
Grogged - the thought of my transactions telling DH everything I spend doesn't sound like good news to me LOL....Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030

Now at 39 books downloaded today. Sending 200 direct mails on l1nk3d1n works... (at least for a free download) who knew?
I have so much left to learn. Trying to study up on key words to potentially use on an Am**** ad from Monday in the hope it keeps up the sales. I bet the algorithm is quite confused though by the eclectic mix of people who have downloaded it.
Finally delivered a parcel to a neighbour - who I tried previously 4 times this week! Doggy came with. Dog is curled up on me now - and she is so cute. I've got DH doing the washing (miracle). I did the dishwasher - unpacked and packed. It will need another load today I reckon. I have steaks defrosting for tomorrow. Need to convince someone to cook mince beef in spag bol or whatever for tea. I have promised to take DD to McD though...
On Monday I get paid... It seems to be showing in my bank account already... does that mean I can start spending it?Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030

That's fantastic news about the book!"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee1
