Step 13 - part 4

Objective: 200.00 - 400.00 HRK

Starting Balance: 251.52 HRK

February 28, 2007 - My first money making activity today was exchanging 9.00 HRK in different coins for 10.00 HRK in paper money, giving me the profit of 1.00 HRK. Doubling balance in that moment was 252.52 HRK.

After that, my friend from work that was yesterday with me on a business meeting insist to participate in parking costs I have yesterday, and give me 25.00 HRK. Since I didn't expect his contribution to my parking costs I decided to add that 25.00 HRK to my doubling project. That increased my doubling balance to 277.52 HRK.

That's not all... I also received 5.00 HRK as donation to my doubling project, and finally I traded 0.52 HRK for 1.00 HRK. Final doubling balance for today is 283.00 HRK.

Current Balance: 283.00 HRK

Step 13 - part 3

Objective: 200.00 - 400.00 HRK

Starting Balance: 246.00 HRK

February 27, 2007 - Today I went to a business meeting with my car and park it in a parking garage. After the meeting I stop by parking meter to pay my parking fee. The parking for about 7 hours was 49.00 HRK. I insert 50.00 HRK banknote and got 1.00 HRK coin back. While I was picking my 1.00 HRK coin I found another one in the ejected coin box. I decided to add that 1.00 HRK coin to my doubling stake. I also decided to add to my doubling stake 1.00 HRK coin I received back from parking payment. That two coins increased my doubling balance to 248.00 HRK.

My mom gave me 2.02 HRK in different coins that she found in the local store in previous few days. So, that addition increased my doubling balance to 250.02 HRK.

In addition to all that, my wife donated 1.50 HRK to my doubling project and increased my doubling balance to 251.52 HRK.

After all that, I might say that this was a good day for my doubling project. :)

That's about 222.00 HRK, and I decided to add 100.00 out of that to my doubling stake. That brings my doubling balance to 240.00 HRK. I took out 40.00 HRK out as my doubling profit and that brings my doubling balance to 200.00 HRK. Step 12 is completed! :)

Tomorrow I go to a 3 days business trip to Graz, Austria. I decided to add to my doubling stake part of my traveling allowance that I will potentially be able to save. I will be coming back from Graz on Friday night, and I will report back how much I managed to save and how much I decided to add to my doubling stake. Hardly wait. :)

Step 11 - part 5

Objective: 50.00 - 100.00 HRK

Starting Balance: 67.25 HRK

February 16, 2007 - Since last post I added 1.65 HRK of found money to my doubling stake. That brings my doubling balance to 68.90 HRK. Also, I added 7.00 HRK of donated money to my doubling stake, increasing it to 75.90 HRK.

In addition I did two money trades. I can't speak about coin trades anymore, because paper money is now involved. I traded 8.85 HRK in different coins for 10.00 HRK in one bank note (profit of 1.15 HRK). I also traded two 20.00 HRK bank notes for one 50.00 HRK bank note, giving me profit of 10.00 HRK. That increased my doubling balance to 87.05 HRK.


Finally, I accepted to pay phone bill for my mom via internet banking for a small fee of 5.00 HRK. I did feel like some dirty profiteer, but hey, I have some serious doubling to do. :) That increased my doubling balance to 92.05 HRK.

After much thinking I decided that all kind of donations to my doubling stake are allowed in My Doubling Adventure. Not only that... I decided that I as well can donate money to my doubling stake. Also, any kind of money making activity can be part of my doubling project. It can be even related with my "real" life career or work. In a word anything that can add to my doubling stake is fine with me. In other words, I decided that I won't pay much attention to hidden resources rule. At least not very strictly. The number one part of my doubling project becomes set of doubling Steps, and I plan to stick to them religiously. Just to remind, the Steps are...

Step 1: 0.00 - 0.10
Step 2: 0.10 - 0.20
Step 3: 0.20 - 0.40
Step 4: 0.40 - 0.80
Step 5: 0.80 - 1.60
Step 6: 1.60 - 3.20
Step 7: 3.20 - 6.40
Step 8: 6.40 - 12.80
Step 9: 12.80 - 25.60
Step 10: 25.60 - 51.20
Step 11: 50.00 - 100.00
Step 12: 100.00 - 200.00
Step 13: 200.00 - 400.00
Step 14: 400.00 - 800.00
Step 15: 800.00 - 1,600.00
Step 16: 1,600.00 - 3,200.00
Step 17: 3,200.00 - 6,400.00
Step 18: 6,400.00 - 12,800.00
Step 19: 12,800.00 - 25,600.00
Step 20: 25,600.00 - 51,200.00
Step 21: 50,000.00 - 100,000.00
Step 22: 100,000.00 - 200,000.00
Step 23: 200,000.00 - 400,000.00
Step 24: 400,000.00 - 800,000.00
Step 25: 800,000.00 - 1,600,000.00
Step 26: 1,600,000.00 - 3,200,000.00
Step 27: 3,200,000.00 - 6,400,000.00
Step 28: 6,400,000.00 - 12,800,000.00

I still will not leapfrog Steps nor carry over funds to next Step. But now I allow the possibility to donate doubling profits back to the doubling stake.

I feel much more comfortable with the new changes I made to my doubling rules. It seems that now they bring back focus to the main goal in my doubling project and that is to double my doubling capital and to increase my overall wealth. Let's get back to the Doubling. :)
