More Opportunities to Blog

This morning, as I woke up quite early at around 6:30am, I checked for opportunities and found several. So now I am in a blogging marathon which reminds me that Penang Star Walk 2011 starts next month and you can start registration now. I also received a free ebook to review which will need to be paid for other people later on to access it. My food blog has attracted international attention and I have been contacted before for an interview with an Australian Radio show on Clinic Cafe but I had to gently turn it down. Otherwise, it would mean more traffic spikes for my food blog. But it is doing fine on its own.

Milking the Internet

Making money on the internet certainly requires some effort and luck. Your computer is your cash cow for you to milk from the internet with broadband connectivity. You have to be resourceful by scouring through the thousands of web sites to find the select few that pays regularly for some work done in a timely manner. Nobody is going to teach you how to do it and it is up to your determination to find the needle in the haystack. During good times, it was lucrative but not anymore. A lot of people are still jobless and the unemployment rate hovers around 9% in USA in current times.

Actos Lawsuit

Actos is an oral diabetes medicine that has been shown by recent studies to lead to serious injuries such as heart attacks, heart failure, and an increased risk of bladder cancer, which can result in an Actos lawsuit. Pioglitazone, the chemical name for Actos was sold under the trade names Actos, ActoplusMet, Competact and Duetact.

So beware of what you are buying off the shelves from the pharmacy in your neighborhood. Some of the medication that we take may have adverse side effects. So it is better to do some research on the internet first before purchasing that medication or as prescribed by your doctor who may be unaware of the lawsuits. Hence, it is good to seek second or even third opinion from the medical experts if you can afford it. You can never take your health for granted and trust to consume every medication given to you safely.

Some of the side effects may take years to be discovered by clients or patients. By then it may be too late for you already. So, be in the know all the time as knowledge is power and brings good health. Some of the medication may cause obesity or numbness of the peripherals. Others may have worse side effects.

Writing Opportunities

Yesterday, I received several writing opportunities from a client for USD 5 per article. Not to put a feather to my cap, but I make a humble USD 35 in one day which could be equivalent to half the amount of Google Adsense revenue for some lucky bloggers who make USD 60 - USD 70 daily, or even more. Unlike Google Adsense, I had to work hard at it and the money will not be credited immediately but takes months before you see it in your Paypal account. I started typing out the articles from morning till evening with some rests in between. That is how hard I work at it. But each day, money will surely trickle in slowly but surely. At the moment, my blogs do not have such high traffic to bring in monthly income of USD 100, but I am getting there some day.

Work like the Ant

You need to work like the ant, always storing food up for winter. Don't be like the grasshopper which sings all day along enjoying life for the moment but goes hungry when winter comes! We should emulate the little wise ant, always working and will never go hungry. In the Bible, we should work until the day we die so that our minds will remain active and alert in our golden years. This will help prevent Alzheimer's Disease - a debilitating sickness that eats away the brain and leads to eventual death. You will lose your mobility, cognitive actions, recognition of familiar faces, etc. Basically you will become a vegetable, depending on your caregivers for basic daily life.

Travelling Around

I just toured Hong Kong, Macau and Shenzhen in China early this month. It was a trip well spent and to rejuvenate from all the work every day - day in day out. I must say that Hong Kong is quite crowded, being a hilly terrain in a small area. I also came back from Kuala Lumpur last week and brought along my laptops to work with and to check emails from the several enquiries.

Kuala Lumpur is like second home to me now - I go there almost every week. And I love the food outlets in Taipan, a happening place that is full of activity with many banks, bakeries, eateries and commercial lots. Taipan is very near to the rented apartment in USJ. Whenever I have the opportunity, I will make it a point to travel to at least one foreign country per year and get to experience the many sights, cultures and people.

Afterall, it is not often that you get to travel when you are old - so might as well make the best use of the opportunities while you are young and mobile. Life is going on well for me - never having to struggle again to work in another organization and fear whether you will be confirmed or not. My current boss is generous and understanding. And the best part is that I work alone at home with a laptop and internet connectivity. This has been going on for the last 7 plus years and we are a small but dynamic company.

And tomorrow I will be flying off to Macau, Shenzhen and Hong Kong for 5 days and 4 nights tour with my 2 younger sisters. This is a treat to myself and to celebrate the big 40s age group. I hope I will enjoy the trip and not be too bogged down from walking too much.
