**homesteadmamma** · 07-26-2004, 10:00 AM

Our thank you this week goes to Shell. Shell your encouragement to save money is such a motivator to me to continue to put money away, even if the amounts are small. You do it in such a loving and caring way, how can we not want to save. And with Guido helping...well!!

Your amount continues to grow and although you have the amount in your siggy, it isn't truly an accurate picture because you've already saved $10,000.00 and put it into a GIC. Amazing!!! And your now on your way to a second $10,000.00.

I'm amazed at your saving abilities. Don't ever stop encouraging us here at the village to save. I'm so glad you a part of the village.

Lets all say thank you to Shell for her active participation. Shes lots of fun in the chat room as well.

Thanks for all you do here, Michelle. You are one of the reasons that FV is such a special place.

**AmyBoz** · 07-28-2004, 07:27 PM

Thank you so much for consistently reminding me to save and inspring me to do so!

**Shell** · 07-28-2004, 10:02 PM

Ahh you don't know how good that made me feel. I have been so stressed out the last couple of days with wedding planning and this is just the boost that I need.

I am glad that I can help other people to save for a rainy day (you won't regret it) and I am glad that you enjoy my sense of humor as much as I do!

I just want you to all know that just because everyone is being so sweet that it doesn't mean that you get away without putting in your money this month. So . . . get off your butts and go puts some money in da bank.

PS Thanks again.
