Products that do what An app that takes your money if you don't reach your goals does
My wife and I just launched this app because we had so much fun with a fitness challenge we did we some friends recently where everyone put in $100 and defined their goals, then only the people who met their goals split the pot.

And we did manage to put it up on both app stores - it's low in the ranks but you should be able to search it by "Goalie challenges".

http://goalfinch.com I had the idea for Goalfinch while reading an article here on Hacker News about economic incentives and how effective they are. It got me thinking: What if there were an easy way to set up economic incentives for the goals I have in my own life?
