I love turning my “bad luck” into profit! Recently I had an idea. What if I added a certain amount of money to my savings/brokerage account every time something “unlucky” happened? For example, I feel unlucky when I have to go outside in stormy weather. If I added an extra $5 to my account on every stormy day I had to go outside, I’d end up with a nice chunk of change. I might even star looking forward to going out in bad weather! This can extend to anything you consider unlucky. From getting cut off in traffic, to the bus arriving late, to name your greatest pet peeve here! You can even try adding additional rules to make it more fun! For example, things that you find slightly unlucky may only be worth $1, while things that truly jinx your day be worth $5. Whatever the amount, make sure it’s one you can easily afford to contribute.

This got me thinking that, there must be TONS of ways to turn saving money into a game. After doing a little bit of digging, If found a fantastic list of savings challenges provided by U.S. News – Enjoy!
