“Last year, I broke a curse by SAVING COINS which gave me -+R5000. For me, it was veeeery big achievement because it was the first time I saved money in my entire life.
“I promised myself to challenge myself even better. I was scared, my girlfriend bought a small Piggy but in two months it was full. We then made a challenge even better, bought 3 more other containers and a BIG YELLOW MINION gas container, 3 months they were full, giving me around R6K excluding R5 and notes in a MINION.”
The people of Mzansi are inspired to save
Seeing Kwanele’s post had many people inspired to start saving. Sometimes you need someone to tell you that it is possible before you believe that it is, and that is what our guy has done.

In related news, Briefly News reported that It is hard to save when money is tight, but a few spare coins and small notes can go a long way if you stash them for 12 months. One man took to social media to show off his impressive stash.
With many families living paycheque to paycheque, the art of saving is not something everyone is taught. However, saving doesn’t have to mean millions, a little goes a long way.
