Just cash out $99.65

Finally my account at Churpchurp has reached $100.65 and I clicked on cash out now - which means that a cheque is on its way next month. There is a $1.00 deduction for admin fee, leaving me with $99.65. It took me a few years to reach this target, but still it is online money from the internet. My hobby is blogging and you might have guessed by now. It is good that I am able to turn my hobby into earning some extra pocket money from the internet. If you are patient and diligent, it is possible to earn cash from your hard work.

Buy Property to Beat Inflation

If you have disposable income and savings in the bank, it is better to invest in properties than to park your money in Fixed Deposits or put in the savings account. Using the rule of 72, if the inflation rate is 4% per year, then it takes 72/4 equals 18 years for your money to become half its value. Prices keep increasing and the cost of living keeps rising due to inflation. Hence, it is better to invest in properties to get rental income and to get capital appreciation as time goes on.

For instance, if you buy a property for $160,000.00 and rent it out for $800 a month, your returns would be 6% compared to putting it in the Fixed Deposit for only 2.75%. Just my 2 cents.

Need to Concentrate on my Main Job

Now I need to concentrate on my main job working in a home office. Previously, in my spare time, I used to moonlight blogging and writing articles for extra cash. Now I have less time to blog and need to find a way to work smart and not hard. My main job is my bread and butter and my boss has been very lenient to me. He knows I also blog part time and as long as it does not interfere with my work, it is ok. But he still prefers if I can concentrate on his work 100%. We are a small company, hence everyone has to play their part and fully utilise whatever we have - our skills and resources.

Need to work hard to save up for my retirement

On average, I earn more than $100 per month from the internet and this is enough to cover expenses for broadband connectivity with some left over for savings. I know there are many other successful netpreneurs out there who are making much more through programs like MLM, Asteria, etc. But you also need to come out with cold hard cash to pay for gold membership monthly in order to earn from your downlines. I don't want to be distracted by too many money making programs, so that I can concentrate on my job which is my main bread and butter.

Not Everyone is Blessed to Earn Online

There are many copycats here online spying what others are doing and trying to imitate them in the hope to earn money online - but there is no free lunch for you, baby! That's because not everyone is blessed to earn online. If you are earning cents and pennies, it is better to treat the internet as a paying hobby than a source of income. There are many others who gave up eventually and just surf the internet for fun or to kill the boredom in their lives. With this in mind, it might be better for most people to find a real job outside than to copy others in the hope of earning money online!

Depuy Orthopedics Lawsuit

My aunt is a lawyer with her own firm of Advocates and Solicitors in Shenton Way, Singapore back in the 1990s and she is now retired from work but not from the internet. She keeps herself active by surfing to the various web sites and read up blogs of interests to keep her mind active and to help prevent Alzheimer's Disease, a debilitating sickness that slowly kills the brain cells leading to eventual death. My nephew is also a successful lawyer who graduated from Australia and he was offered a job even before finishing school because he did very well in his exams.

Anyway, on August 26, 2010 DePuy Orthopedics, owned by Johnson & Johnson, announced a recall of 93,000 hip replacement systems due to a large number of people experiencing pain and swelling so severe that a second hip replacement surgery became necessary. At O’Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath, our attorneys understand that your hip problems may not be your fault – instead, possibly due a defective DePuy Hip Implant. Our expertise and experience, combined with our highly trained staff, make us uniquely well-equipped to handle even the most complex products liability claims.

Got my 3rd Nuffnang Cheque Yesterday

Yesterday, when I opened a letter addressed to me, I was elated to receive my third Nuffnang cheque for over RM50. It took me about 2 months to accumulate to this amount. Without doubt, it is not the highest amount earned in Glitterati, nevertheless I am still satisfied with my blogging progress online. There is certainly a lot of traffic and readers to my various blogs on different topics. You can click on the image above and see the enlarged version. I have already banked in the cheque last night and it is cleared by now. More ang pow money this Chinese New Year for me. Yeay!
