Hello Everyone,
Welcome to Saturday Savers Club with Susie Saver.
CUBLIFE - A new savings opportunity
PRE-SALE
The pre-sale for CUBLIFE (CL) tokens runs until Thursday 20th May at 20:59 UTC. Here is the full story. You can purchase CL tokens now using either LEO or HIVE(p) on Hive-Engine by sending any amount to @cublife.
1st CL TOKEN ISSUE
Friday 21 May 2021 at 22:00 UTC: the first CL tokens will be issued to everyone who bought them over the previous three weeks.
1st Dividend Pay Out
Friday 28 May (and every Friday after that) at 21:00 UTC, the first dividends will be released to CL holders.
Why this is a good savings opportunity
- Each month, you can set aside Hive you have earned to buy CL tokens (or send it to @cublife every week) and receive the next round of CL tokens issued on 21st of the month.
- Each week, you can choose to re-invest your dividends and buy more CL tokens, increasing your stake and your dividends.
- There are a million CL tokens, so plenty of time to get into your CL savings groove, without feeling FOMO and that you have to rush.

More about EDS tokens
EDS tokens are a low-risk income token, ideal for people who want to save. There were only 20,000 originally and they were all sold at 1 Hive each, with guaranteed earnings of 12% each year. You can now acquire EDS tokens through the EDS Miner token.
Earnings come from powering up and leasing out the Hive that came from selling the tokens, plus earnings from posts and comments each week. EDS pays out every Monday evening. Last week the pay out was equivalent to 22%.
Back to business ...
We're going to be here every Saturday through the year growing a little savings honey pot, if you have plans for saving or getting to a different place this time next year - maybe $5 Hive by the end of the year 🤑?
Whatever it is, stick with Susie Saver through the year and we'll get there. Along the way, we'll share lots of tips and tricks for saving and how to get the knack of making your money work for you and not the other way round.
Let's Get Started

We're using the 365 Penny A Day Challenge framework for the Saturday Savers Club. We're aiming to save £667 worth of pennies by the end of the year.

Okay, let's check in ...
1. Check Progress
Each week, we're going to check in through this post and see where we are up to. Our target for today, 8th May, was 8.75p. Next week, we'll be saving 9.24p and by Saturday we'll have savings of 91.83p (look how that is growing)!
Each week, I'll be buying Hive for @susie-saver's account with the pennies we've saved.
Here's this week's results - 8.75p buys 14.44 Hive.
Nearly 215 Hive saved in 19 weeks! Plus we're earning 3.22% inflation on powered up Hive, and 22% on EDS tokens!
@susie-saver has powered this week's savings; she's also been voting following a curation trail and started posting using @actifit app, bringing her account to 113.676HP. She's aiming for 500HP - what's your goal?
How much did you save this week? Did you meet your target? Or did you save even more?
Being accountable to another person or a group is a great way to motivate yourself to save (or anything you want to achieve). Of course, you need the right kind of people around you - ones that think what you're trying to do is worth doing ... or at least fun 😁.

2. The Golden Pig Tip

Every week, we're going to share a Golden Pig Tip for saving. By the time you've tried them all you'll have £670 saved.
This Week's Golden Pig Tip
This week's Golden Pig Tip is from @riandeuk, who wins an extra EDS token (more yay!):
"I think automating your savings and transfer only what is left to spend (after bills and fixed expenditure for rent/mortgage yada yada) is the best way to go. Last year had a long tough look at all coming in and going out monthly and separated everything into dedicated accounts, setting up auto transfers for saving and investing and for both of us a fixed amount we can freely spend however we see fit. Works like a charm and we've been able to save more than ever!
"It's a game changer, doesn't even have to be much to add up over time! As it never reaches my spending account I don't even miss it :-) ... I think having it automated and send away right after the money comes in is the most important.
As @bearmol said, "It’s like automating a car 🚙 payment or mortgage. Only this time it’s your saving. Awesome 😎"
And today is always a good day to start saving - you can start on Day 1 or make up the first nineteen weeks to catch up with @susie-saver. Or join our 100 day savings backwards challenge 😁.
That's it for this week. Hope you've enjoyed it and look forward to seeing you next Saturday with progress so far and our next Golden Pig tip.
