Turn your home and business expenses into college cash
This is way off topic of my normal postings – but I thought I’d throw it out there.
So my wife and I signed up for Upromise today.
This is one of the those rare things that actually makese sense if you have a young child. You sign up for this program and a certain (small) percentage of qualifying purchases actually go into a fund for your child.
You don’t have to do any extra work either – you register your credit cards – including corporate cards – and any qualifying purchase you make contributes money to the fund.
As a bonus you can have other people sign up too – you might not have any children (or you might be a grandparent, etc) – but you can still sign up and designate who should get the cash.
Where does the money come from? Advertisers and merchants – it’s a promotion for them of course. All’s fair marketing but the two best things about this are:
- You are getting bonuses for money you’d spend anyway
- You don’t have to do any work after you sign up to get the benefits
And on top of that the Upromise people have some tools, etc, to show you how to get the best deals. If you are interested just head on over to the Upromise sign up.
