Wow that really worked

There is this trend going around where if you play the old disco song "Ring my Bell" by Anita Ward, you will get money as the song itself is a money spell.


So I thought, you know what, I believe...and I tried.


Less then 3 hours later, unprompted and out of no where, my fave credit card (I earn money back on purchases so I use it most) said you know what we want you to have $1000 more on your credit line. Now. I would not normally think that was so fantastic cause although I am flattered, I have been working on my debt and credit so it made sense and was already a goal to get more money anyways cause I am taking my soon to be graduate on a grad trip this summer.


However, on my todo list that day was

1. call your fave cc and ask for more money


But I ran out of time and could not make the call. Then on the way to dinner that afternoon, I got an email from that very credit card company telling me I earned an upgrade!!! Wow.

THAT IS CRAZY TIMING. Or the spell is true.


Either way, that was super fun. Great song too, I love to dance to it!


Try it, money never hurts. If you do let me know.

As Jung said, there is no such thing as coincidences

Well the happiness is good, cept it's a trap for more debt and this is there plan to create more interest added on. It may only be a Grand, but how more thousands will the banksters make over time through Usery.

Understand that the whole system is designed to keep as many as possible under there thumb. Good luck.

The Dave Ramsey cash envelope system really works. I live a free lifestyle not because of how much I make but rather because all my expenses are saved up for. When mortgage comes due, I’ve been saving every week. When annual car insurance comes up, I’ve been saving every week for the prior year.

Debt is a prison with no walls. It follows you everywhere. Get (and stay) out of debt is the most freeing thing you can do for yourself and your family.

I totally agree...

The only recurring payment is my mortgage.
Every bill is paid when it's due.
I haven't had a late payment since early 1980's.

Spend less than I take in.

Buy something because I need it. And look for discounts and deals.
Car insurance and HOA fees are only expenses I cannot control.
No credit card debt, tons of reward points growing,
Investments and savings grow.
All overtime is banked. Sell the house, and disappear off grid?
I can do that if I want to...

The only ones making real money are the recipients of the royalties every time someone plays that song. lol!

CC increased credit limit means we keep overpaying for things we don't really need (for the most part).
