Jack’s Cash

Well I apologize for abandoning the site for so long, to be honest I haven’t had much going on for me financially and well I’ve been up to other things like walking, climbing, running, and trick or treating and I’ve kind of put my finances on the background, which really is not a good excuse. Well anyway I’m back into the swing of things now and here is my first financial report in about 6 months.

February was a pretty good month for me. Not only did I actually recieve the $50 bonus for opening my sharebuilder account, I also got my dad to open a 529 savings plan for my college education. The $115 of seed money that he gave me is a great start, but just getting the account open allows me the opportunity for my friends and families to contribute to my savings account (no more excuses of not knowing what to get me for my birthday/christmas). In fact I should post the soliciation email my dad sent out to the family after getting my 529 plan started, it’s actually pretty funny.

Well looking back at January it was a pretty successful month for me financially. My dad helped me open up an investing account with ShareBuilder to take advantage of a $50 promo and gave me $250 to help fund my account. When my net worth was barely above $300 to start with the $300 in the investing account helped me out tremendously. (more…)

Well December wasn’t all that fruitful for me. No one took me up on my ING referrals and I did not have any adsense revenue. Things weren’t completly hopeless though as I got $50 in cash for Christmas that was deposited into my savings account and I recieved $0.80 in interest from my ING bank account for the month of December. So here is my financial breakdown below. (more…)

I plan on releasing a post with my financial summary at the end of each month. Seeing as how this blog is just getting started, I’ll give you a summary now and probably won’t follow up until January 1. Also sorry for the crude representation….I’ll try to spruce things up going forward. (more…)
