Moving Here

Guest post written by my buddy Bernardo Graham

Moving here was tough and I think it’s mostly because I’m so far away from my family. I’m really close to all my siblings and my mom but we had to take this job so we could get a sustainable income back in again. My husband and I have two kids but they’re young enough not to really know what the move is all about – I’m the one who’s going to have to deal with it for the most part. I love being at home with the boys all day but you know, I really miss my sisters. I got http://www.wildbluedeals.com/satellite-internet/oklahoma/k/kingston/ service for the house so I could email and keep up with them on Facebook but it’s not the same as being able to go over to their houses in the middle of the day. I’m the first person in the family who decided to move away but just between you and me, I wouldn’t have chosen this if I hadn’t had to – I wish we were back home instead of in Oklahoma.

Received 6th Cheque from Nuffnang

Above is my 6th cheque from Nuffnang which I received today in my letter box. Thanks Nuffnang! More moolah for some Christmas shopping this month. I don't intend to accumulate too much and will cash out each time I hit the minimum payment threshold. Though it is nothing to shout about and not in the range of thousands unlike a few bloggers with high traffic, nevertheless it is better than nothing. And I consider this passive income doing nothing other than my hobby which is blogging. Hope to maintain my Glitterati status so as to continue to promote my blog posts on a regular basis.

Christmas Corporate Gifts

Christmas is less than a month away and many Christian companies are already getting some Christmas corporate gift ideas from the various web sites to present client Christmas gifts as a gesture of goodwill for their business. There are many cool corporate gifts that you can purchase from the internet in bulk for your staff, employees or corporate clients. Gifts like Christmas mugs with Santa's pictures or images of Christmas trees, crystals, photo frames, key chains, card holders, pen holders, Selangor pewter, perfumes, toiletries, Body Shop products, et cetera.

December is the most joyous time of the year with much merry making and laughter. Carolers sing carols at major shopping complexes to bring cheer to the shoppers. Santa Claus will be busy distributing sweets to the children and please the parents. I will most probably go to a mountain resort to chill out literally during Christmas. The hotel has been booked by phone and it was confirmed. You have to book early to get a place during this peak season which is more expensive than the usual charges.

When I was in Singapore many years back, Christmas means gift exchange over 8-course meal dinner in hotels or posh Chinese restaurants with relatives year after year. I love those times we were together to celebrate this festive occasion.

Met Amber Chia at Shogun Japanese Buffet Restaurant

Just the other day, I was dining at Shogun Japanese Buffet Restaurant in Sunway Pyramid on the ground floor when we were told that the table next to us was reserved as we had our lunch there. Shortly later, Amber with her cohort of models and family walked in to sit right beside us. They occupied 2 tables with her baby son seated next to me. I did not take the liberty to snap any photos wit her as she was busy tending to her son, but chatted with me and my partner for a short while. Her husband was very well dress in a coat just as Amber was in a white dress with some jewellery. They left shortly after before us - as fast as they came in.

eCommerce Website Design

I was a freelance website designer way back in 2001 and managed to get a few clients from the internet, chat sites, etc. Those were for Macromedia Flash Animated banners and buttons and fully Flash websites. I was very motivated at that time. Now I rather let other companies like new york web design to the work as I now hold a full time job as an Information Technology executive.

New York web design also offers ecommerce website design where you can accept credit card payment for your products listed in the pages. A payment merchant gateway is linked with shipping cart or also known as shopping bag as the intermediary link before checking out for final payment via your credit card.

For a profitable website, you need to allow an ecommerce solution to be linked in so that the payment is 24/7 all year around. And you can sell to anyone around the world at any time of the day or night. That is why many internet millionaires are made from their ecommerce sites like selling ebooks, tangible products, etc. You can check out the links given above and they have a neat website that is easy to navigate with fast turnaround time. They also have scalable prices to suite the various budgets.

I Love Making Money Online

I have paid articles to write almost every day and am paid in US dollars. Now and then I also earn from Google Adsense or now known as Ad Choices. Every 2 months I get from Nuffnang the minimum to cash out and am happy with my progress so far. My online venture has brought in thousands of ringgit for me every year and this is free money from the internet. I also earn interests from my bonds, fixed deposits and in future, my rental income as I plan to rent out my small apartment unit in Penang Times Square. I can accummulate a little here and there from the various multiple sources of income - be it offline or online every month for my savings towards retirement down the road in years to come.

Being Old is a Pain

The Author of this post is Cheryl Martinez

Sometimes, being an adult is kind of a pain. I think back fondly to my time before mortgages and power bills. Obviously I didn’t appreciate the freedom I had back then while I could. I’m incredibly aware that the period of life I’m in now also contains a sort of freedom I won’t enjoy once I have children, so I’m doing my absolute best to make the most of this time I have now with my husband. The best part of being a young adult with no children is the ability to travel, and we’re doing our very best to do as much of that as possible. The bad news is, anytime we travel we feel a little like we’re leaving our house unprotected. Worrying about your house the entire time you’re trying to relax on vacation is completely counter-intuitive. For this reason, we recently installed a homesecurityfamily.com. We now know that our home is being protected while we’re away, and we are able to fully relax and enjoy the time we have together. It’s one of the best investments we’ve ever made.
