    Thumbs up Camming Your Way to $10k

    If you did everything you needed to do necessary, how long do you think it would take you to cam your way to $10k?

    I suppose this can be a savings motivation thread? Basically, it's time for your girl to move on in life. I'm married and not happy and because I share a car, I need $5k for a small SUV, and another $5k saved for rent as a "start up". I obviously need some motivation. Who's with me?! Let's see how fast/slow it takes each of us to cam our way to $10k. I'm going to give myself 6 months. This JULY. Now, I do get a $400 monthly "allowance" which will give me $2,400 by July 1st. I also run a small business but I'm not going to count all of that because I have a few small bills. Anyone with me? This thread wasn't/isn't intended to derail the other savings threads. This is just more like a mini savings thread revolving around my personal goal, and the goal of others who intend to join in.

    Thank you for this. My world has basically collapsed in on itself and I wasn't sure why I was still working and what I was trying to save for. I'm in. I will say... Well my birthday is in late August so I guess my goal is to have $10k saved by then.

    (confession: I didn't put anything away for taxes last year, so the first couple of months of this year will be spent saving for that so when I file in April I can pay in one lump sum without having to go on a payment plan, like I did last year. I made about the same as I did the year prior so I know about how much I will owe, it's not a horrific amount but it will throw off my $10k, thus me giving myself an extra month.)

    I'm actually planning on saving somewhere between 15-20K in the next 12 months, not including taxes (for which I am saving around 1.5K a month). So that actually works out to be around 10K in the same time frame as you guys!

    Of course, about half of that will just go to clearing my debts, and won't be mine at all....but still, the idea is to put that much aside after rent, bills, and living expenses.
    I take cash, debit or credit. I just don't take shit.

    Awesome! And CR, I didn't put any away either but it's only because I can just give them a lump sum like you in April. Because I just started camming, and just started my small vanilla business I won't owe that much. I guess the perks of being a "housewife" got me by on taxes since he pays them. I'm so ready for this. I did cancel SM but I'm okay with that. I have a few other sites I plan on pimping out. With my other income not included, it looks like I'll need save at least $1,141 each month until July, so basically $285.25 a week which I think is more than doable if I work 2 main sites and a few indy platforms. I should also wake up my phone sex sites that I've been ignoring and start taking calls.

    To save $10k? Or to make $10k? I can make $10k in 5 weeks if I work consistently, which I'm attempting for the month of January! So that's part of my goal.

    I'm saving $6k for moving in May or June (deposit, 1st month rent, moving expenses, etc) so I'm planning to save $460/wk over 13 weeks starting in Feb.

    I'm in.

    It can go both ways. So you answered the question right. My main goal is to save, but others may cam to $10k and pay bills or anything really. Rent here is hella crazy and I'm not taking anything with me but clothes so my rent will get me a deposit, and possibly 3 months rent in a one bedroom close to a metro station. With that, I'll at least not have to share a car as I'll have my own, and I'll have some extra for cable and net. Hopefully I can get utilities included and can use the 3 months paid rent to work my ass off so I'll be good to go. I'll also need to save for furniture lol.

    Im in.... Honestly in. I need to save a minimum of 10k a year , I need to throw in 25k in reality but is it realistic?

    Where is the savings thread? Where we start w 1 dollar on day one 2 on 2 and on up to 90$ on the 30th day? Then turn around and do it again. Anyone have a clue what I am talking about?

    I saw something like that but it was 52 weeks. $1 on week 1 up to $52 on week 52 and you have over a grand I think.

    My goal is to have 10k or more saved by May...

    Last year it took me about 4 months to save the same amount up but I was lousy with money so it could've been faster...then i bought a car and paid off a chunk of rent and missed a few weeks of camming.

    Last year I didn't have a savings plan....here's mine this year:
    I am going to take $500 out of every check and put it in my "brick and mortar bank" for bills/spending money + some savings in that account...and put the rest of my earnings in an online bank account which has two sub-separate accounts one for general savings and one for taxes(I add to the taxes on a percentage based system).
    I find if I put my money in an online account it's easier not to dip into my savings (it takes about 3 days to get the money from it into my regular account)...I do have checks for the account so I can write myself a check and cash it in case anything REALLY bad happens but I won't do that just to dip into my savings...

    Okay ladies. I get $75 on Monday from hubs which is part of my $375 a month "allowance". The other $300 I get on the 1st of every month. I will start on Monday and pull in $60 a day 5 days a week. Let the savings begin lol! I have a few bills to catch up on but as soon as those are paid off I can start really putting money aside. I forgot that my $150 a month client will only be $105 because DH and I give each other 30% of our "income". He will NOT be getting any of my camming income, but he can get 30% of the vanilla business income. This won't push me back too far as I will pick up more weekly and monthly clients so I can actually save up the $10k faster. There's NO way I won't pick up new clients in 6 months time if I set aside a certain amount per month for marketing.

    I'm in! Been in the biz on and off a long time. I'd go through a stretch save money, reach a goal, then stop, or work PT, enough to pay bills and subsist. Now I'm in the homestretch, (late 40's look mid 30's or younger easy) but I went though a long period of school, hand-to-mouth, single mom, now with B.A in hand, son in middle school, my goals are a lot bigger. so yeah I'm in 95% of my earnings are from work as a PSO, but I'm considering other options at the moment for maximum earnings, on the DL. Live in L.A high rent, raising my son, student loans, bills, debt, eat away at my earnings, but I need to save 1.5k a month at minimum. So 18k by years end...though I will also be buying a new car (4k DP) dental work (3k) and taking a 2 week vacay to Brazil (2k) in addition to the 18k. The 18k is towards savings and DP for a house/condo. Total savings=27k. In order to achieve that I may add on another stream of income, adult and/or vanilla. Happy to support others in their goal, though I def need encouragement as well!

    Let's make it happen in 2013!

    I put in mega hours after recovering a disaster through many different income streams..it can definitely be done. And let me tell you...working that much just to get caught up again..it sucks! Savings are verrrry important, I've definitely learned.Good luck girlies! We are awesome business women who can all be the "Millionare Next Door" someday if we work enough NOW and stock it away and have something to show for working in this industry.

    Count me in, I'd like to have 10K Saved by the end of the year, I'm bad at saving. On a side note, I am so proud of you Kourtneykay for realizing you're unhappy and gaining the independence to leave. I have been there before and I know how stressful it is to feel like you have to stay with someone because they have financial control.

    I need to stop eating out and stop buying unnecessary clothes/makeup. I was about to buy $100+ worth of shit from Sephora yesterday, because I "needed" it (or so I thought). Luckily, I came to my senses before I hit the checkout. I need 4k or 5k within the next few months, which should be easy, as long as I'm not spending every penny on shit I don't need.

    I make good money right now (well, in my opinion), so when there's extra money lying around it's hard for me to not spend it.

    You should try getting a strictly online bank account for savings..that way the money will take 3 days or so to actually be in your hand..or you can open an account at another brick ad mortar bank in your are and keep your savings there and just hide the debit card they give you...in your sock bin, freezer, under the couch...anywhere just don't take it with you when you leave the house.
    I prefer the online account because even though pretty much all banks give you 0% interest online banks are slightly higher which makes me a tad bit happier lol..
    Also if you know you'll be okay with the money tied up you can also look at short term CDs.

    ^ Yup, that's what I did, and I think it's a great idea. I signed up with Alli Savings a few weeks ago (haven't put anything into it, because I've been sick and haven't been able to work as much), and as soon as I get my paycheck next week 30% will go to my taxes and 25% will go to savings. My goal is $250 per week to go into savings (and an extra 30% of my paycheck into taxes), starting next week. I'm actually really looking forward to saving money. I'll be so much happier with savings, instead of "things."

    Anyways, sorry for rambling ... hopefully my plan will encourage someone else.
