I have been reading a lot about rich people because wouldn't we all like to be healthy and filthy rich? Maybe some people don't want it - so - why are we still buying lotto tickets?
It is interesting that the richest people in the world - are rich - from investments - not wages! Yes, just read up anywhere about rich people and that is the bottom line.
You notice that I have stated - health - and that is because our health is our wealth! Without health we have nothing. No money in the world can change that!
Yet they do say the more money you have the healthier you are. I guess this is because you can afford to buy the best foods, supplements, and exercise programs.
Yes, jog around on a cruise ship - doesn't that just sound great?
Or get your heart pumping doing the walk about in Las Vegas. Yes, tons of walking!
How about swimming in the Bahamas or Cuba? Maybe, the pool I'm afraid of sharks!
Just walking everywhere - marathons - are pretty much held in every country of the world.
I think anonymously rich is cool - that - way you can keep a low profile and you won't need body guards.
It would just be great to give to all of your favourite charities and your heart will then be in a good place too.
So, if you stay anonymously rich you can do whatever you want - when - and - where - and - how - is no problem. No problem at all.
You can afford a personal shopper - oh ya.
You can get a beauty make-over - whoo la la.
Have your very own personal trainer - yes oh yes!
No more mortgage or rent payments - hee ha!
The list can just go on and on.
You can really make sure all of your family and friends are taken care of too. So, again you are not buying love - but - sharing some!
I was shocked that Peter Parker really is dead. He is aka Spiderman. Peter Parker somehow got trapped in the dying body of his nemesis Doctor Octobus - that is all I know.
The reason I am so sad is that I always loved Peter Parker for his inner strength to be a good guy. Will the death of Peter Parker affect the value of all the Spiderman Comic Collections? Good Question! The answer my friend is - wait and see. The thing of about the comic world is this. On minute they are killing off our beloved Super Heroes. And, then sometime later it is like the resurrection - I`m back! You get what I mean. And, in a few weeks we will see what exactly is coming out. Now, the new Spiderman comics without Peter Parker - now - that is going to be weird. What in the world are they up to in comic land? Good question again! By the way, if you want to buy a cool Spiderman poster just click on this link: I think that the world wasn't really ready over the holidays regarding the death of Peter Parker. Maybe, so many bad things happen in real life to good people - that - killing off a good guy - was really bad news. But, let`s put it all in perspective. Peter Parker is not and never will be a real person. He is a comic book hero - and - that is it. Sure President Obama loved Peter Parker aka Spiderman since he was a kid. And, Peter Parker`s name will go down in history as the original Spiderman. Yet, you really have to be a bad person to offend the writer of the Spiderman comics. Why is it his fault?After all he is the creator of the comic and the ultimate demise of the character really is up to him! So, I guess we will all need to sleep with one eye open now - that - Peter Parker - is dead. But, only in your dreams! This is all I have to say on the subject for now! Cheers
Wow, I just heard the news that Peter Parker aka Spiderman has died. Yes, he has been killed off. And, some nasty people have even sent death threats to the comic book writer. Now that is just darn crazy! After all were talking about a comic book hero not a real person. Peter Parker got trapped in the dying body of his nemesis Doctor Octobus - that is all I know. I was shocked to hear that Peter Parker actually died for good.
The comic shop must have been busy selling the Spiderman Number 700 on Wednesday, I wish I had of made it to the store because I am sure they are sold out. I can just imagine what they want for the variant cover. I didn`t think the cover was very great - did you?
I wonder what President Obama thinks about his favourite comic book hero since a kid being killed off? Will the value of the Spiderman comics take a plunge or go up in value? Now here is the thing. All of the comic shop websites are going to get a lot of traffic! Traffic can make you a lot of money. The more traffic - the higher chance - you will make money from your site. So, I am going to try and sell something related to Spiderman. Just click on the link below and buy a Spiderman poster. Your kids will love it. If you want to put a great Affiliate Marketer on your blog just click the link below: Webmasters Make $$$ Actually, I am using this blog as an experiment to see how many hits I get. To see if anyone buys anything off of the site as well. You see one big internet secret is to post things that are big headliners! I will let you all know if the experiment works! I love Google Adsense because they actually do help you make a passive income. But, again your site has to generate enough hits to be able to do this. Or, if someone buys something off of one of your pay modules. Squidoo peeved me off today just to let you know because they just wanted me to tweek 11 works in progress. Who really has the time? If anyone has any internet secrets they would like to share with me - I am all ears! Sadly, I am grieving about Peter Parker aka Spiderman because like President Obama - he was one of my favourite comic books heroes.
But, don`t dispair - their will be a resurrection of some type - so Spiderman - I think the Ultimate Spiderman will be born. Just that he will have a different mind and soul! Good or bad - will see! Did I get more traffic to my site from this shocking headline? I will let you know. Cheers
One day I am in Blogger Heaven and then I go into my Squidoo dashboard and they have put at least 10 of my lenses in the: in progress category! Now, I am no longer totally in the green light section, heck no - now I am in the red light district so to speak. Not only that - now I have one big blogger headache - maintenance - of all those Squidoo lenses.
Well, I did see that Susan52 who has an e-book on Amazon is still a Squidoo lensmaster. She is one of the top ones I am sure. After all to write an e-book is pretty cool and amazing. I think her book is called: I Squidoo do you?
Another pretty wise blogger is Potpiegirl.com who also tells you how you can make money on Squidoo. I think she is still a Squidoo lensmaster but not 100% sure. But, you can subscribe to her feed and get some helpful tips for free. That is what I have done. I could of sworn I saw that she has an e-book on Amazon too.
The Wealthy Affiliate - I believe that Potpiegirl.com has referenced him on some of her posts. This is why I believe these two are aware of each other. The Wealthy Affiliate apparently now has an e-book that puts you in control of Google Adwords - really? That sure is a pretty big promise!
Now, John Chow he is one famous blogger who boasts about having the good life and he also claims to know all of the secrets to make you and me rich. Really? What if you buy something and find it too technical? Sure there is a money back guarantee but as I have always said: do your research and buyer beware!
The only way for me to go straight to Blogger Heaven (in my dreams) is to do what I know is working and not do what I know isn't working. Ok, that sounds pretty easy but not so fast. Sometimes you get no pay - ok - I made a whole thirteen cents from Squidoo - and - your pretty much in the dark how this could be. The problem here is that Squidoo has a two month lag so if you sell something in September from a pay module for example it won't be reflected until November. If you sell something in November it won't show up until January. And, your lens ranking - the Squidoo Gods - well - they are not always smiling upon us lensmasters!
The only good that could possibly come of this - is that a Squid Angel - might bless all of my Squidoo lenses. Especially, right now during the holidays.
Were all running around silly and then I have such a high maintenance blog! I thought us women were high maintenance - not blogs! So, now I have learned something - oh my gosh - my innocence has been stolen!
Ok Squid Angel do your thing - I do need all of the divine intervention - that is possible!
Hopefully, you didn't go bankrupt over Xmas. It is so much better to give than receive but you do have to use a list and stay on budget. Otherwise, you will be suffering from the January blues.
OMG - a whole thirteen cents from Squidoo. Hey - that puts me in the category of making slave wages!
So, trust me if you have a day job that is pretty good. Don't give it up counting on Squidoo.
Well, that brings to mind a Captain Squid that claims at one point he made a big pay day on Squidoo of $500.00. Yes, he did I think! He has his own website and on Amazon he has T-Shirts and Mugs. Nice gig Captain Squid. Not sure if he is still on Squidoo?
Oh, and you really can get addicted to Squidoo. Now, someone has on Amazon - Squidoo Addicted products. Again, another person with a great idea making lots of cash. Great gig whoever you are?
So, enough of my whining and complaining I have some Squidoo lenses that need attention. If I ignore them I will never ever make any passive income!
Take care and feel free to post a comment. I keep meaning to google this up because I have not received any comments - so - I think something is wrong! But, it shows as having been set-up properly. Probably a dumb computer glitch! Just what I need! Great send me a comment if you can about this problem!
Let the Squidoo Games begin! Bring then on! I am ready! What, Squidoo is not a game you say! Well, if that is true - why is it - that - I win points and trophies?
Squidoo would make a great game. Think about it! My writing is hot off the presses and a Squid Angel decides to bless my lens. Wow, very angelic. This game is fun!
Next I have written enough good quality lenses that I can even join the Giant Squid Club. Wow, how cool is that. Well - that doesn`t necessarily mean they will accept me right off the bat. Gosh, more paper work just to apply!
And, just like any other game Squidoo has rules. If by chance, I forgot to follow all of their rules they can lock out any one of my lenses. Ouch! I think just about everyone at some point in the early days of Squidoo has had a lens or two locked out! I just delete those ones and l carry on. After all I want to win at this game!
And, just when I do finally feel ahead of the game my Squidoo lenses start going from green to red - just like - a darn traffic light. So, ah ha they have upped the ante. This means that I have to tweek my lenses. Hopefully, I will have a few hours to play at this! This part of the game is hurtful but no harm is done because you see I am a real trooper and with my head held high - again - I just carry on writing.
Now it`s time to see what the other Squids are doing. Gosh, I have never had a lens of the day! Now, they are really making me feel bad! Is my writing really that bad? Me, who took a fiction writing course at the Chang School part of Ryerson University. And, now I am a paid writer on Squidoo. Yes, I made a whole thirteen cents for September and October. Wow, Squidoo really knows how to pay their writers. Less than minimum wage - is that - even allowed? Yes, in the Squidoo rule book it is!
The Squidoo community is the fun part of the game where other Squid hopefuls give comments, the thumbs up, and even Squid like your lens. Wow, that really is fun! Then in return you are critiquing your fellow Squid lenses and sometimes that is a lot of reading and to tell you the truth - more time - from my own valuable writing. But, guess what? This whole process helps me to build better and better lenses.
Just the small chance of someone buying something off of one of my pay modules from one of my many lenses really makes me want have more playtime. It is after all a game of chance you see. I mean who really knows in the world of the internet who will buy something off of one of my Amazon modules, or maybe Cafe Press, or E-Bay, or Orbitz, or maybe I-Tunes? Do you feel that adrenal rush? Yes, the Squidoo game is really starting to heat up. The chance of possibly having a big Squidoo payday is now dancing in my head. Now you get it!
I made a two figure income from google adsense this month - and - I am sure it was because someone bought something. That sure was a nice surprise. I need more surprises. Or, there were enough people going into the adds on the page and the click rate was really good. Wow, a whole added feature to the game. The unknown! Maybe someone bought something from one of my Affiliate adds on my blogger page? Yes, my blogger pages go right into my Squidoo lenses with an RSS Feed. Again, I don`t know what I am doing but it sure is fun!
As your Money Diva I have to tell you this Squidoo writing platform takes time to win. It is a game of chicken really. I mean you chase after the dream ...... of becoming rich from blogging ..... and you wake up the next morning - disappointed time and time again. So, why do I keep playing (writing)? Cause you can get addicted to Squidoo. Yes, the more lenses you write the more addicted you get.
And, someone out there is cashing in on Squidoo Addict Mugs, and T-Shirts. A great gig if you can get it!
And, another thing - a guy named Captain Squid claims at one time to have made a $500.00 a day pay day from Squidoo. Great headline Captain Squid who-ever you are! Now, Captain Squid has e-books on Amazon, T-Shirts and Mugs on Cafe Press. He is really raking in the money.
And, Seth Godin, the creator of Squidoo - well - he is an inter-net genius and has authored countless books. He has lots of You Tube videos, and is a great public speaker. Again, a very rich Squid, the big Daddy of Squidoo.
So, where does this leave me in the Squidoo game? In unchartered territory - that - is where. Writer's limbo!
As your money saving diva I have to tell you - shhhhh - it's a secret - don't give up your day job - not - just yet anyway. Or you might find yourself in your very own debtor's prison. A writer's hell! A starving artist if you will!
I get it now the game just never ends. It's all entirely up to you. To just keep blindly writing and playing in the Squidoo Game with both your fingers and toes crossed. Or, find a real writing job out there in this big bad city! Now because of blogging do those great writing jobs even exist anymore? I mean they are laying off writer's left right and centre cause everything is going digital. Progress? Ya right sorry to say!
On a happier note. Everyone just have a grand holiday.
Every blogger out there wants to become a rising star in the inter-net world. I love blogging because I love to write. You just have to believe in yourself and just keep writing and hope that some wonderful people out there will read your blog and appreciate what your trying to tell them.
I already have talked about potpiegirl.com who blogs about a variety of inter-net subjects. She is probably not rich but she sure is a rising star!
Another person Susan52 is a Squidoo lensmaster and she does have an e-book on Amazon called: I Squidoo do You? She is another sure fire rising star!
One of the brightest stars in the sky is Seth Godin. I love Seth because he has authored countless books and guess what he is the creator of Squidoo. Just watch this you tube video of Seth Godin. He is a genius by far.
In this video he talks about failing until you succeed. Well how true that is!

One money saving tip I want to mention is at this time of year always go to the mall with a list.
One thing I really want to learn and I will be researching it is how to sell items on e-bay.
I think some of the free classifieds like Kijjii are a little more simple to use. You just take a picture and post it on the site and then leave your information. Never ever leave a phone number - for security reasons - just leave an e-mail address.
Well, I am hoping that on Squidoo that I will be soon a rising star! Will see on their next payday if I make more than thirteen cents.
It wasn't until today I really got fuming mad with Squidoo. Come on how many times are they going to throw your lens from green into the red telling you that it is a work in progress? Does Squidoo think that the only thing us bloggers have to do is - update our Squidoo lenses- morning - noon - and night? I am sorry but I have a life.
I realized right from the get go - that they have set Squidoo up - as a type of writing game! Yes, you win trophies, points, go up a level or two - but - the high maintenance of each lens is just a little much.
Maybe you think I am not dedicated enough? But, oh yes I am - big time! I suppose it is partly my fault because I think you need hundreds of good quality lenses to make any real money from Squidoo.
The September / October Squidoo hopper has a huge thirteen cents in it. That is enough to make you laugh yourself silly. I mean come on a whole thirteen cents. Well, at least I know something is working.
I got saved this month by google adsense who sent me a two figure payment - so- I got a nice dinner out! So, again something, somewhere is working.
No I probably will never become a famous blogger like Captain Squid, John Chow, Susan52, Potpiegirl, and tons of others who claim to be making big money from blogging. Oh ya, there is the Wealthy Affiliate - we wouldn't want to leave him out.
For me blogging sometimes reminds me of going out on a bad date. You have fun at first and then it get's a little like - you wanna - run away - as fast as you can!
Maybe if I see some real progress - dollar wise - with Squidoo - I will change my tune!
For me right now - Google Adsense rocks!
I feel sorry for all the new bloggers out there - me included - because you don't want to get scammed! Everyone out there has that sure fire system that will make you tons of money. Again, like when your on
on-line dating - all the faces and the promises - what they can offer - all seem the same after awhile.
Just like being careful dating you have to be careful with all the on-line guru's promising you the moon and back.
For me - I just might as well pick up that book - blogging for dummies - cause that is what it is boiling down to.
I still have to google - why are my comments not working on my Blogger blog?
Anyway, I am all blogged out now - so I will talk to you later!
