Many have tried and have gotten the Google-Slap, whatever that is, as Google keeps changing things up and it seems impossible to keep up with them.  But really that should not matter. In reality just blog or develop a site about what interests you.

There are many sites out there designed to profit from advertising such as Google and Yahoo. Basically Google wants you to buy advertising from them so they discourage other means of making money on them.  Sure you can say it is self-interest but that is what most companies do and it is how they exist.

Well I don’t really have the time or want to take the time to try to keep up with such stuff, really.  Part of the corporate world and the games that go on in it. This is not meant to bash them.  It is difficult for most people to start out because of the nature of the beast, you can be put out of business almost before you start without warning.

Plus many of the so called experts out there are out to sell you something that may have worked in the past not now or may not work at all.  This includes many gurus, internet marketing, SEO and the like. Of course not all are bogus and there are some really helpful.  The challenge is to find the legitimate ones and apply the techniques and stick with them long enough to find out if they really do work.

If I had to choose between blogs, this one and the Creative Waves one, then it would be that one rather than this one.  Actually, they are really quite different in focus and purpose. Creative Waves has a bit more soul.  By that I mean it has some spiritual aspect, an appreciation for life, the abundant beauty that surrounds us and hopefully some inspiration that may appeal to those who wish to be inspired. It really has nothing to do with getting rich in a monetary sense although that is possible also.

Of course this site does provide some easy and free ways to potentially enhance or enrich you in other ways for little or no cost.  Sometimes you do need to spend a few bucks to make some.  At least that is what I have found along the way.

I have many interests so that detracts somewhat from the objective of concentrating on a single niche which many of the sites are set up to earn income from.  Another interest I have is in the Stock Market.  The image below is how we all would like the market to perform for us. Ah day dreamers we are or is that day traders or day trader wannabees! Wannabeesness?

Penny Stocks Secrets Revealed!

That link is to a designed to take you to a site to buy the book or e-book and it is a clickbank product. Now I do not have any direct knowledge of that product so I cannot provide personal experience with it. It does show ClickBank as an example of another way to generate income on the net.  You are really selling someone else’s products and receive a commission for doing so. Another example of this is:

Stock Market Education & Training – Liberated Stock Trader!

Or this one:

Intelligent Stock Trading!

Now one of the tricks suggested by the gurus would be to do a blog on stock market trading, for example, and present yourself as an expert on the stock market and sell products based upon that.  Well, I am not really into that sort of thing although I have played both blue chip and penny stocks over the years. Playing the markets is a gamble and finding anything of real value is many times coming down to perception of value and that perception can change in a nano-second.

There are also other courses that you can take at local colleges, universities and from various investment agencies. In Canada one such course is the Canadian Securities Course. This can be taken by correspondence and must be completed over a certain length of time with deadlines and assignments to be sent in. In the USA there is North American Securities Dealers. I am not sure if that is a direct comparison but do a search on FINRA and check it out.

You must also provide disclaimers if you do discuss stocks since there are regulations that have to be abided by. Make sure you are not giving “advice” which is a no no.  The regulators would rather you lose money taking advice from an expert. Well hey that surely is a distinct possibility.  Yes, I have known a few of those “experts” over the years.

I only wanted to touch on that subject today as it is very broad based and not for the faint of heart. If you can find a stock market specialist who can make you money, it may be best to stay with that person especially if you would lose sleep over losing money in the markets.  That does happen and quite often in fact.

So I think that is a wrap for today as I wandered off topic quite a bit.  Still it is all about making money on the net, or off the net, online or offline.  So I guess it really is not off the topic at all.  I was going to update some program information but will save that for another time.

May good fortune smile upon you today and every day.

This is a no sponsoring program.  For anyone who does not want to sponsor or who cannot, they have the option  of purchasing their referrals from a pool from which participants have already paid the initial $5 payment to the admin.  This is much better than free signup versions that you see on the net.

A breakthrough feeder system enables members to buy new downline members starting at only $5 each. These members have already joined the feeder and have made the first of two JBP upgrade payments. (The fact that they’ve started the upgrade process by making their first payments makes the chances high that they’ll make their second upgrade payments.)

The cost to join JBP is only $20. Sponsor just 2 people to be in profit — or buy them for $5 each.

JustBeenPaid! (JBP) is the program “the market has been waiting for.” It has no sponsoring requirements. It enables online moneymakers to earn as passive members if they don’t want to recruit or sponsor.

You can get paid “indefinitely wide” and “indefinitely deep.” You need just 2 referrals to be in profit. If you find it difficult to sponsor people, you just buy 2 (or more) referrals from the JBP Feeder, starting at just $5 each.

Everyone’s 3rd referral is passed up. This is the “Magic Money Multiplier!” What makes this work so well is that those who find it difficult to sponsor, can buy additional referrals from the JBP Feeder, starting at just $5 each.

JBP has a High Performance Bonus — every 10th sale of members on your first level is also passed up to you. This provides a major incentive to recruit High Performers.

Ok, that is a good program for such a small outlay so I suggest you join today and check out JustBeenPaid.

Cheers,

Gene

PS While you can join_for_free the best option is the paid version costing $20 plus at least 3 referrals for another $15, $5 each to start you out.  You also can refer others if you wish and you get paid $15 for each one which puts you in profit right away.

Time to jump in is now.

PSS You will need an AlertPay account and upgrade it to Personal pro account, which is free. Instructions follow below:

If you haven’t yet done so, please
upgrade your AlertPay account to
“Personal Pro” or to “Business.”
This will make it easier for you
to get paid. Instructions:
1. Login to your AlertPay account.
2. Click on “Profile”.
3. Under “Personal”, click on “Upgrade
account”.
4. Under “Personal Pro account”, click
on “Upgrade Now”.
5. Click on “Submit”.
Some JBP members have not yet upgraded
their AP accounts. Sometimes an upgrader
tries to make the sponsor payment by
credit card payment. For these reasons,
the $15 payment may fail and the upgrader
will be asked to submit a help request to:

JBP Help Request.

There is also a tier referral commission structure should you want to refer although that is not necessary to earn.  Also you need to surf only 70 sites a week and you can do it in one day if you want or do some each day.  You decide!

Like me many are wondering what is going on with SQIP.  Well it looks like they are getting closer to bringing in the new FTS system.  I am not sure when that will be, hopefully sooner rather than later.  I have been discussing a few things with support and managed to talk with the co-founder, Christian, via email.

I asked some questions regarding the multiple choices for income and also about some being anxious about not getting updates etc.

I will post that information on the updates pages. Please Go Here For The SQIP Update and my discussions with the co-founder.

He mentioned a large figure for probable income potential  No need for me to put that here.    Some interesting information he passed along to me and you will want to keep up on it. Make sure if you are in this to get a signup or two in place as this will enhance your position as well as give you more options going forward.  Free to join so no harm in passing it along to a friend.

One important note for ICF members, they have completely changed the structure to a more active one for members requiring one signup every six months.   If you are a member then you have six months to bring in at least one new paying member at whatever level you are on. There is more to it than that, please read the update they sent out and if you have questions contact support.  They have live support Mondays through Fridays on the website.

Cheers,

Concerned with Identity Theft?  Protect yourself with RoboForm.

Folks are you still Twittering?   Some are building up huge lists of followers.   That must be a challenge and I hear there are ways to do that and keep it straight.  I guess that begs the question, is it worth it? If you know of any great ways, non time consuming, please post me a comment here. I “need” some followers at Twitter.  Yes I know, need is a strong word and perhaps highly inappropriate.

Affordable Affiliates may be coming out of dormancy with in the next 2 weeks or max 35 days as they are projecting the completion of the scripting.   It would go the max if they use the hired team of 20 to complete it.  I think given the funds they have taken in it would have been appropriate for them to have done that a long time ago.

Ad-Ventures4U have upgraded the site, finally, and surfing is much faster. It was taking a long time to surf previously.   I really do not like surfing much anyway but you have to do that to earn.  It is still growing and going strong, unlike the guy below!

Cheers,

Once you have done that you can make a purchase for as little as 15 Euros. That will get you into the system.   They even guarantee that if you are not in profit in 30 days on that purchase you can get a refund.  I expect it to go much quicker.

There are fees involved so make sure you fund it with more funds.  This is also in Euros so check the calculator there if you are converting US dollars.  Don’t worry about it costing more.  They pay back in Euros so that will be more coming back to you.   Also you are supposed to maintain a 10 Euro balance and there are transaction fees.  So fund it with a minimum of 30 Euros just to get it started.  Or more if you wish to take the plunge.

I have added a special section under Free Shares at the top of this blog and near the bottom of that page it will say -SQIP-, you will see a sub page to follow. For now I will just post the links here.  That leads to a sub page again How To Make Money With SQIP. I have taken most of that from the SQIP website.

Ok, I think this is going to be quite a good way to play this and if you are a member give it a whirl and if not, you can join now. Below I will show the 7 Profit Centers to come. The only one live now is PEPs, next will be Ad Pool then Lotto.   All you can play with and have huge potential.

Expect a few glitches along the way.  Once you are funded you can just highlight the purchase you want, 100 or 15 Peps then order now.  Make sure you are adequately funded first.  There is support on the Ewallet site, I have emailed them and I imagine they are very busy getting this going.  To go direct to your account after logging in just hit complete later.

Profit Centers

1. PEPs

2. Ad Pool

3. Lotto

4. SqipMail Pro

5. Messenger Pro

6. Flat Rate Calls

7. Resource Pro

Bernard Madoff, the ultimate ponzi man,  gets the maximum sentence of 150 years.  Hopefully he will not meet one of his victims in prison.    All kinds of things happen in there or so I hear.  Of course he may start a pen ponzi.  You just never know.

“The judge said the estimate that Madoff has cost his victims more than $13 billion was conservative because it did not include money from feeder funds.” Ok I think I’ve had enough of Bernie until he comes out in the year 2159 or sooner.

Don’t forget to add me as a friend in the new section of Me2Everyone.  This is the start of many new things in there. Also someone is going to win 10M shares.

SQIP has announced they are going to have a Chitter, which is like Twitter.  As for Twitter, you can follow me in there also and add me as a friend on SQIP.

Both SQIP and Me2Everyone have social networking components and both are striving to increase value.  Joining them now is a great time to do so as you get instant value for free.

Just read that Healthcare and Private Education are growing fields at the moment in this economy.  For sure there is lots of room for growth as the population retrain and as the population ages healthcare is an important component of that.

RoboForm, above, is one of the best safe ways to operate on the net, especially if you have many programs to log in to.   I upgraded long time ago and I am glad I did.  Trying to remember passwords is a real pain in the you know what.  One of the best things I have ever done.  Try the free version and if you like it then upgrade.  Yes there is a free version.

Life is an adventure.  Live, love, lust. Do anything, but Do Something!

There may be some that have outside income however some will take surplus funds and put them into other ponzis or more highly likely they put this into their own pockets.   Some of the programs like this are the surf programs, hyips etc.   Hyips are so called high yield investment programs, high risk high reward but do not confuse them with regular investments such as with a bank or an investment company.

Some can go on for a long time and some fizzle rather quickly so you may make a buck or two or not.  When outflow starts to exceed inflow then the game ends rather quickly and the guy running the ponzi has left the building. Frequently many excuses are made as to what has happened.

Follow a few rules and you may come out ahead.  Also know that many will lose along the way. Do you really want to be involved with these schemes?  If you cannot afford to lose or you cannot sleep knowing this may happen, do not play these games.

I have been successful with them as long as I follow my own rules. Of course I never “recommend” these things but if you decide to play, please do your own due diligence and do not rely strictly on what others tell you.  Monitor them for awhile and see how they do.  Many “forget” to report when these games end.  Of course many have sucked up a significant amount in referral fees and those sometimes generate more income than they garner from the ponzis themselves.

Your prime objective should be to recover your seed funds as soon as possible and then play with the “profits” taking a certain percentage back each payday.  You will make a bit less doing this but you preserve your funds that way.  There is always another train leaving the station, i.e. ponzi coming along.

Making money and greed seems to go together so do not get too greedy. Be vigilant and get to know folks who suggest these things.  If they guarantee anything that is usually too good to be true.  And nothing lasts forever.  If you come in too late your chances of winning are greatly diminished and you are likely throwing your money away.

Ironically the biggest scam of this ilk was the Madoff ponzi scam to the tune of 50 Billion dollars. And the SEC had been made known about it for years and had done nothing about it.  They seem to go after others with more zeal. Of course, he was once chairman of the board of the NASDAQ exchange so did that have something to do with it?

Here is something I wrote awhile ago called Ponzi Guy.

Ponzi guy
Ponzi guy
Sweet as Pie
He’s not so shy
Ever so Sweet as Honey
When he is collecting your Money

For the rest of this ditty go to Ponzi Guy.

Ok, off my pozi high horse for today.  I hope everyone enjoyed Father’s Day today.

Cheers,

Gene
