Every penny that I make from endeavors, such as this, outside of normal working activities(I work two full time jobs) goes towards investments.  Fourty percent goes into retirement funds so that I take the taxation bite out of my paycheck. Thirty percent goes into higher risk/higher yield investments for my two children.  I have yet to spend a single cent of money made on the computer.  All of it is being set aside in accounts that won't and can't be touched for at least another ten years.  It is extremely fun to watch these money endeavors grow and grow.  I monitor their accumulation and investment on a weekly, monthly and quarterly basis and reset my goals for larger amounts/additional streams one week before the quarter ends.

I need a new washer- I want a front loader... Yeah, I know it's not very fun, but it's what I need.
My hubby believes "nothing is wrong with ours" so I will just get it, and he can't complain about it!! :thumbsup:

Cashouts will go toward every day bills or to help my daughter with hers though I liked the idea of the one person who said all her internet earnings were going into investments.  Would be a much easier way to save.

Always saving for that next trip.   :thumbsup:  I need to go someplace foreign at least once a year in order to feel sane.

   Out of work, so everything I makes goes into paying bills, so I too will hopefully never have to be homeless!    If I ever get a little ahead, the investment idea sound fabulous.
