Step 8 - Close to 12.80

I had several finds in previous few days, in total of 0.30 HRK. That brings me very close to 12.80 and to completing Step 8. Hope it will happen in May, so I can say that I completed 8 steps of DYWTAM Project just by finding money.

Stake: 12.73 HRK

Step 8 - Reached The Milestone, New Record

Today I made my new personal record in found money since I started new DYWTAM Project - I found 2.00 HRK. This find made me really happy. :) This is also my first find in the form of 2.00 HRK coin. This find brought me above 10.00 HRK milestone and closer to completion of Step 8.

Stake: 11.63 HRK

Step 8 - Approaching 10.00 HRK

After today's find I'm closer to important milestone - 10.00 HRK. My current stake is 9.63 HRK, so I need 0.37 HRK more to get to that milestone. Who knows, maybe tomorrow I find enough money to get there. We will see. :)

Stake: 9.63 HRK

Step 8 - Biggest Find So Far

Yesterday I made biggest find so far in DYWTAM Project. I found one 1.00 HRK coin and two 0.05 HRK coins. This is my third 1.00 HRK coin so far. Still didn't found 2 and 5 HRK coins so far in new DYWTAMP.

I'm thinking to include EUR coin I found a month ago in my total balance. If I decide to do that I will use foreign exchange rate for EUR from Croatian Central Bank. I noticed that there are more and more EUR coins to be found on the streets, so it might be good idea to count them as well. I will have to change official currency of DYTAMP to EUR anyway, once Croatia becomes part of EU and part of Eurozone.

Step 7 Completed!

Today I found 0.30 HRK and that completed Step 7 in my DYWTAM Project. Step 8 is here. :) I still didn't do anything with my stake money. I just look for lost money and add every bit I find. Maybe Step 8 will be the Step where I will finally start using stake money for master strategy in doubling, i.e. as Rule 13 says "Use the stake money to create a value which you can sell for more". Well, now my only worry is to get my stake to 12.80.

Stake: 6.58 HRK

Found Money Aficionado

Today I found an interesting web page about found money aficionados...

Found Money

This one page took me to several blogs of found money enthusiasts like ChangePot and MoneyWalker. Seems like those guys are very similar to doublers, just that found money searchers don't have steps, structure and goal of reaching to the million. This few blogs got me thinking am I really a doubler or am I really found money searcher. The fact is that I always enjoy the most in the first few steps where I can look for money and feel the joy of finding it lost somewhere. The part when I had to start trading and do something with it always lead me to lost interest and abandon doubling in the end. Every time I found a coin again I start doing doubling again. Seems to me that the joy of finding the money is something that attracts me to doubling, and not the doubling itself. So I really think I am a found money aficionado. It took me more than two years to figure out. Well, it's better later than never. :)

My current pot of found money is 6.08 HRK and 0.10 EUR. I think I will open new blog to document my found money adventures.

Found another 0.50 HRK while shopping with my wife and daughter. Till now I applied only strategy of looking for lost coins for progressing through DYWTAMP. I should start looking for other things to do, because found money can push me maybe through Step 7, but I'm getting to the levels where this strategy is no longer the best way to double money.

BTW, I started to learn playing Texas Hold'em Poker. I found site that teach me how to play Hold'em Poker profitably, and after I learned basic strategies I got $50 from them to play on online poker sites. This money is real, and once I clear them I can take money. But I plan to use that given starting capital to build my poker capital. And, once I play certain number of hands I'll get another bonus of $100 from poker training site. This is not deposit bonuses, but real free money for playing.

If anyone is interested to learn how to play poker and to get $150 in starting capital for your poker adventure then check it here...
