			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi DIYers,</p>
<p>I wanted to pass along contest information from FNBO Direct, an internet bank.</p>
<blockquote><p>Pay Yourself First is a challenge to encourage people from across the country to save money. We&#8217;re inviting prospective challengers to create and post a one-minute video on YouTube about what they&#8217;d like to save for &#8212; in your case &#8212; that dream wedding.</p>
<p>The first 500 entrants will receive a $10 gift card. The top 20 finalists will receive $500 in cash. And everyone who submits a video has a chance to win a portion of the more than $45,000 in cash and prizes including a free honeymoon on us!  More important, contestants will acquire money-saving tips they can carry with them long after the close of the challenge.</p>
<p>FNBO Direct will judge the video submissions and select five finalists &#8212; maybe even some of your readers &#8212; who will move on to participate in the actual six-month Challenge. If selected, America will watch them try to save as much as possible by depositing their money into an FNBO Direct Online Savings Account.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>Participants have until July 31 to post their video on YouTube. In the meantime, visit <a href="http://www.pyfchallenge.com">www.pyfchallenge.com</a> to check out video entries.</p></blockquote>
