I have a challenge for you readers. I double dog dare you to not spend money on anything frivolous today. So that would mean cutting out all the following today and donating it towards charity. This would include:
- Starbucks
- Clothes you don’t need
- Computer toys you don’t need
… And the list can go and on.
That is my plan for today. I am going to attempt to spend $0 today. My car has a good tank of gas and I have plenty of food in my house so this should not be a problem.
Instead, I am going to spend my time on poverty. Not just thinking about. But acting on it. Once I actually sat down and thought about it there is so much that I do take for granted. From having a roof over my head to shoes on my feet. I tend to ignore those that are less fortunate than me. I ignore them on the street. I change the channel on late night TV. I say not interested and hang up on every charity call I get.
That is not the person I want to be. Is that the person you want to be?
If not, what are you going to do about it?
And when are you going to start.
