I Finally Signed Up for Revolution Money Exchange and Made $25

For some time now, I have been hearing about Revolution Money Exchange. The premise of this company is very similar to PayPal. It’s a way to send and receive money through the internet by only using an email address. Best of all…there are no fees!

I’m not one to try things out first. I tend to sit and observe and then perhaps give something a try. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that they are giving out $25 bonuses right now until May 15th so I kept a very close eye on things 😉 I finally felt good enough about the company and their reputation, so I signed up.

Signing up was easy and setting up my web account took less than two minutes. Right away, there was a $25 deposit into my account. In order to access that money, I had to set-up account information and had to give my social security number. That was the big reason why I was sitting back and watching this one.

If you are interested in receiving the $25 bonus for signing up with Revolution Money Exchange, you can click on my referral button above and follow the sign-up procedure. You’ll have to hurry, because the promotion ends May 15th, 2008. EDIT: PROMOTION IS OVER

In full disclosure, I make $10 each time someone signs up using my link. I have my Revolution Money Exchange account tied to one of my savings accounts so any money earned from this will go directly towards our emergency fund. Thank you in advance to anyone who signs up using my link!

April Net Worth – Up 9.29%!

by Tricia

Wow! April has been an awesome month for us. If we had months like April every month, we’d be debt free in no time. In all, we were able to pay down our credit card debt by $2,300.

Some of you may be wondering how April ended up being such a great month. Here are the unusual things that happened in April:

My husband sold an expensive piece of old business equipment.
I sold a year’s worth of advertising on here and received an upfront payment.
I worked overtime for extra money.

Combine the above with the normal money we have been contributing on a monthly basis and we paid off our debt by $2,300. I am still amazed how everything added up. I want every month to be April!!

With that, our net worth now stands at ($27,616). As always, you can see the whole picture at my NetWorthIQ profile.

May should be a great month too if we get our economic stimulus payment as scheduled. But I’m not holding out for it. If we manage to have the money to bring our credit card debt under the $10K amount, I am going to do it the first chance we get 🙂
