Save more money using the SaveEveryWay reminder service – It’s Free!
Inspired by a recent study completed by a quartet of Ivy League economists including Jonathan Zinman of Dartmouth, Sendhil Mullainathan and Margaret McConnell of Harvard and Dean Karlan of Yale showed people receiving daily reminders via text message increased their savings rate by as much as 16%.
Their findings showed that simply keeping people aware of their spending and saving habits on a daily basis made a difference. To capitalize on this finding, SaveEveryWay has been set up to accomplish the same result.
SaveEveryWay will not be selling you anything, will not be sending advertisements and will not be marketing for any paid product or service! All expenses are paid for by donation only.
If you would like to receive a daily reminder, quote or suggestion on saving money every day, please follow us on Twitter @saveeveryway, sign up for a text message using the form on our home page, click on our link for RSS or provide your email address. You can unsubscribe at anytime.

From David Bakke, author of the new book Don’t Be A Mule:
I’d like to announce the release of my first published work. It is a down-to-earth comon-sense advice book on the topic of personal finance.
It is called “Don’t Be A Mule: A Common-sense Guide to Saving More, Spending Less, and Generating Extra Income in Your Everyday Life.” It’s currently on sale at Amazon.com.
There you can read more about me and even look inside the book. You can also find out more by visiting my blog, Your Finances 101.
The book was written based on the personal experiences of my escape from financial debt and the fair successes that I enjoy today. I think it can add value to the life of just about anyone, regardless of age, gender, etc.

It’s said we should listen to our elders, and it’s more important than ever in these difficult times to listen to the advice of people who have lived through even harder times.
In honor of the 100th anniversary of credit unions in U.S., one group in Georgia has put together a 5-minute online video featuring seniors who share financial and life advice from their experience over the generations, intermixed with children from the Boys & Girls Club who talk about the advice they receive from their elders about how to be smart with money and in life.
The video is here: http://www.georgiacreditunions.org/100/index.php.
We can all learn a thing or two from watching it, and each of these seniors has an interesting backstory as well if you are interested in finding out more about them on a Facebook page set up for the video.
Connected to the video, 1,000 Georgians were also polled on their current savings and spending habits, and financial advice. We thought these also might be good fodder for chat among your readers. Here are some of the poll highlights:
