Found Money

There was a considerable error in my pay last fortnight but, looking at this as a chance to have a default savings plan for a fortnight, I figured I would just have a tight budget and make it up next pay. My tight budget has well, been tiiiiiiiiight but I don't have to do the $21 Challenge so it's not that bad :-)

Anyway, as an aside, I just rang and checked the balance on my salary sacrifice account - the balance has to be zero for protocol reasons in a few weeks. The bank told me my balance was some hundreds of dollars above what I thought it should be. I thanked them and hung up. I pondered ... surely not. I looked up an old statement, and it became more possible (I really should look at those things more often). I rang back, spoke to someone else and went through some transactions .... yes the balance is correct.

I don't usually make this sort of mistake and I am chuffed. And no I am not about to go out and blow it :-)
