Have you seen For A Greater Cause? That’s where Stephen Pierce is trying to raise money to feed a million hungry children. He’s offering a free download just for visiting the place. But if you can donate $30 or more, you get a number of ebooks / videos / reports on online business, plus help to feed the children.

Here’s what’ll happen if you DON’T go there.

• Right now, there’s more than 850 million people hungry in the world.
• Before morning, 16,000 kids around the world will drop dead from starvation. Because after weeks of pain, weakness, and suffering, they’ll finally succumb to the slow, horrible death of starvation.
• Tomorrow, it’ll be another 16,000. And then another.

If you go across there, you can help. In whatever way you can, whether by donating some money, or telling your friends about it.

But if you don’t - I hate you, too!

Go to For a Greater Cause.

RIGHT NOW

Bid too low, you don’t get on the first page of results - and your traffic is low.

And if you miss some keywords, you’re leaving money on the table.

But if you learn how to use it, you can get yourself a nice cash machine.

I’ve been looking for some good info on this; unfortunately either the free website articles or ebooks you get don’t give you detailed tips for a newbie. And most of the priced ones are far too expensive.

I found a decent ebook on Adwords recently - price isn’t too bad at $17. The sales page was a little corny - “your new job slapping Google back 24 hours a day” indeed. But the information was decent.

Best of all, it’s a way to test your keywords and ads. Which means that you can control your spend to the level you want, and avoid spending too much with very little to show for it. $17 well spent - I’ll save much more with this.

Here you go again - the antislap link. Don’t go there if you’re looking for a freebie, or a miracle. Just decent, sensible information with an okay price tag.

Saw this site called nRaged Entertainment - after a flashy start, takes you to a forum that’s guaranteed to make you forget what you were mad about. Plenty of topics to talk about - or even let loose with a rant of your own.

While it does seem to be Middle East / Indian oriented (are those guys nRaged much more, I wonder?), plenty of stuff ot suit any taste.

nRaged Entertainment. Don’t miss it. Or here’s the link to the nRaged Entertainment Forum.

Gets worse when they write to Santa and don’t get a reply.

The pits? Getting it back with a stamp “Return to Sender”

So if you’ve got the season cheer, are inclined to help out, and want to get your Myspace codes / layouts / scripts from somewhere, head over to NEW! Pimpin-Profilez!

And a Merry Christmas to you too.

But most formal education doesn’t prepare you for life. It just tries to fool you into believing that you will do better financially with certain choices.

You may, or may not. But luck probably has a bigger part to play, in that. And unless your knowledge and expertise are of the one in a million genius level, it’s more of people skills and EQ that matters. Not your IQ, and certainly not that bit of rote learning.

That’s right. One solitary cent, for work that could take between 10 minutes to a day.

Apparently, there are. How else could you explain these jobs on Amazon’s Mechanical Turk?

Just think about it. Even at a cent for 10 minutes, that’s 6 cents an hour. Or a little less than half a dollar for a day’s work, considering an 8 hour day. If you make it 17 hours, then you make a whole buck. (7 hours for you to sleep, eat, and all other things you do!) Working for a year, you could make the princely sum of $365?

Yes, there are people poorer than that. According to the Globalrichlist, 9% of the world’s population earns less than that.

But we’ve left out one set of expenses. The computer, and internet access. Considering that more than 70% of the world doesn’t use the internet, there’s no way this is attracting the world’s poor and desperate.

But MTurk’s listings show there are people who’ll work for that rate anyway.

Even though making cents doesn’t make sense.

Now keep that amount in mind.. now sell that article for $10 and figure out how much you are making an hour..

Now.. add in marketing time.. time you spent actually making the deal… now again.. how much are you making per hour?

If you accept every offer, or jump on every offer in forums.. then you’ve created a buyers market..

I cringe everytime I see someone sell a few hours work for $10 .. geeeez guyz.. c’mon! Do you know how much these websites make off of your work? .. More than ten bux !

But there’s no excuse for a slipshod homepage. Error messages all over, poor color coordination, misaligned columns, and the like. Not with all the resources available on the net. You can find a directory of web resources, that could provide the novice with all that’s required.

Need a good template? It’s there, for free. Clipart, tools, scripts, counters ?? Yes, Sir! News items or other content? Just a search away.

Or looking for other sites, for ideas? Use a directory, or randomly surf the net - or even search as required. It doesn’t take too much effort, and in most cases, it’s available for free.

With all of this available, why would you still want to be a slob? Unless, of course, that’s your choice.

I could understand it in a shantytown - but not in a decent neighborhood. And it doesn’t take too much time or money. All it needs is that little bit of attention now and then.

Get the lawn mowed; if you’re feeling too lazy, get a kid around the block to do it for you. A coat of paint doesn’t cost the earth and does wonders for the appearance. Remember to sandpaper off the old paint first, to get rid of the stains and peeling patches, and give a uniform finish.

Now add some home & garden decor - a bird bath, some garden chairs or a hammock, or even a pond or fountain if you feel like it. For the rooms that face outside, change the curtains, add some lamps and give a cheery look. Or add a flag! It does wonders to how the place looks, and doesn’t take any maintenance.

Whatever - just get rid of the slob look!

Once in a way you might get something good. Like Eddie Murphy playing Holy Man, and making a parody out of a “As sold on TV” show. But more often than not, you don’t get the parody - just the pitch. With the inevitable commercial break that makes no sense at all; the whole show’s a commercial break, why rub it in?

But at least, you couldn’t be a miser over it. Not while cable charges are what they are. At least, until now.

TVproducts4Less. Giving the miser in you the ultimate.

And forget all that blah about NetTV requiring broadband, a huge pipe, and paying through your nose. The very same ultra-great quality products in the most economical package. After all, who needs the pitch, the jingle, the constant repetition and animation, when you can save a couple of bucks?

No TV. No cable. No noise, no commercial breaks, nothing but great products and even greater savings. And you know the people who came up with this are folks after your own heart.

Why else would they have economised on “Recommended reading” with descriptions of the articles on sale? A touch of two birds with one stone, obviously.

Go ahead, indulge yourself. Just think about the huge savings. Again. And Again.
