Yes, I need a financial check up. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to weigh in on the 52 weeks savings plan. I’m committed to see it through the end of the year. Elaine, I don’t have enough words to thank you for this brilliant idea. What I’m going to do though, is to stay committed to the task of saving and take advantage of all the information you share in addition to the savings plan. As time goes by, I’ll give you updates as to my progress and any accomplishments that I’ve made. I’m working on some ladies to join the group. Thanks again and God bless you tremendously for sharing with us.
