Saving $5 bills

Blogger Marie Campagna Franklin has a simple message. Every time you get a $5 bill, put it away.

Just that.

Franklin started saving $5 bills in 2005. In 2019 she reported having $43,000 after 14 years.

When the fives outgrow her secret stash container, she takes them to the bank.

You could save for a vacation or another goal. Or retirement.
