Today’s Hustle: Break a Buck!
It was always a challenge to me living in an apartment in my younger days. Ah, those bright time of youthful idiocy..and never enough change to run a coin operated washer and dryer at the end of the hall. (What is up with whoever leaves their crap in the dryer every time I went in there! Ugh!)
This was my first time I ever found having some extra quarters in my possession as a very, very positive thing! And the perfect begin to hustling toward my goal of Millon Dolla Bill!
Breaking a buck is as easy as simply using only your paper money to make everyday purchases…and then pocketing the change! Making a purchase at the corner store for $2.40? Hand the cashier $3 and the $0.60 in returned change goes in your pocket. Stopping by to refuel your car? Make it a point to stop just over the whole dollar..like $25.18. Hand the cashier $26 and you will you get $0.82 in return. Drop this change in your car somewhere and continue on with your life. Easy peezy!
Don’t even think of spending this nice little horde of metal…just keep Breaking a Buck! And let the collection grow!
For this episode, I will be happy to report my first Break a Buck hustle move: picked up some snacks for my daughter on the way home from school today. Total: $4.26. Broke a buck..and added $0.74 toward my Millon Dolla Bill.
Ok, not a great start but, before now I had zero. I will call like it is..the smallest movement of the biggest avalache!
