Salary lands
₦450,000The moment your pay arrives, Jide sees it and gets to work. You do not have to do anything.
/JEE-deh/Igbo, to hold
Why Jide?
I work in the media team at my church. Sundays are busy for us, especially around the offering, so giving kept slipping to later. One Sunday became two, then three, then a few weeks, and before I knew it six months had passed without me paying my tithe.
Money was leaking another way too. My salary arrives on one date and my subscriptions renew on others, so the next renewal always seemed to land when I was already out of cash. The usual ways of saving did not work for me.
So I wondered if I could take myself out of the loop and give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar, ahead of time, without having to remember. Jide is what I built to do that.
It is still a work in progress. Because the options here are limited, I am leaning towards crypto to make it work.
What Jide does with every salary
Here is a real example, drawn out step by step.
Bills are set aside
₦184,500Rent and bills are reserved by their due dates, so they are covered before you can spend the money.
Tithe is held
₦45,000Your tithe is kept safe all week and released to your church on Sunday.
Goals get funded
₦90,000A share goes to each goal, like your Japan trip, and you can watch how far along it is.
Investing is set aside
₦40,500A slice is put aside for investing, based on the risk you are comfortable with.
The rest is yours
₦90,000What is left is free to spend this week, with nothing to work out and no guilt.
Still building. What do you think?
