“The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson I’m just popping in to share something that I think we all could benefit from and that is a little automatic savings. I use something called Acorns. What is does is it rounds up pennies from purchases I make and then invests them into an investment account and a “later” account. You control the rounding amount and also can make your own deposits into those accounts. Acorn App for Investing I’ve been doing this for six months and I’ve already squirreled away $400 in an investment account. And I have a couple hundred dollars in the “later” account, which is an IRA. That was just change hanging around that is now working for me! The reason I’m sharing is that if you use my unique referral link, We both get $5. https://share.acorns.com/sarahwuslp It doesn’t sound like much, but it adds up over time. It’s nice to just have it running in the background and I don’t even have to think about it!
