Inspirational Image

A while back I came across this image of an AdSense check for nearly $133,000. That inspired me to get into the arbitrage game, and so far, well, not so good. But I’ve learned a lot.

Yesterday in the mail I got my own check - I’m not quite sure why… but anyway, I thought you’d get a kick out of this image:

That’s right… $0.14. I’ll have to ask Steve where this check came from, because I have no idea.

1 Week of Whoring Myself Out

Well, the first week of posting paid posts on this site is over, and I made $55.  On one hand, I’d like an extra $200 / month in spending cash… heck, that’s about half of what I take out of the bank, anyway, for spending cash each month.  Over a year, that’s $2,860.
But on the other hand, I don’t think my regular readers want to sift through the paid posts to read the unpaid ones.  While I only write about topics which relate to me (the binoculars post was a stretch; I completely avoided the Jewish social networking site and the other one about colonoscopies), I’m not sure if it’s worth it.

I have to fill up space in-between paid posts with at least 1 unpaid one, so I’ve been blogging more about things I typically wouldn’t have - then again, I’m also blogging about things I should, but wouldn’t have if I didn’t have to fill in the space.

And since Ye is the only one who comments, I’m not sure if anyone else reads this stuff.  Maybe it’s just Ye and I :)

That being said, if you don’t want the paid posts, let me know.  If I don’t hear from anyone, I’m going to keep doing paid posts, and enjoy the extra spending cash.

Good Blog Writing

Occasionally I stumble upon a site that really intrigues me, and here is another. CopyBlogger is just amazing when it comes to blog writing. Lucky for you, my dear reader, I’ll be reading through these tips and hopefully will be able to create a better blog for all of you.

Steve and I are looking to get into a new project together, and this is really important information. There are details to work out, however, before we get too far into it.
