Surviving on 5c a Day, Would You Make It?

I got a call today after, having been at
home jobless not that I haven't made an effort, but because of the economic
situation that faces the youth not just in my country but all over the world.

The call that I received today was for a job interview tomorrow and I
have been on the Internet doing some research on the company I am interviewing
for just to help get a leg up on the rest of the competition, I really need this
job if I were to follow my dreams. Just about two months ago I had my own
business, however it didn't work out,but now I have an opportunity to join the
work force again, I am able again to contribute to the economy again somehow and
maybe to the World Economy.

Yesterday I was watching TV and I watched a
documentary called Food Fight on Current TV and I realised how much time we
waste on worrying about stupid needless things, like cars, a louder sound
system,-I can name a million things if I had the time and wanted to bore you to
death, but I neither have the time nor the money- when there are people that
live below the poverty line and with the rising food prices it
is becoming increasingly difficult for people in Third World Countries, meaning
they have to find alternative cheaper substitute products to supplement their
diets.

Now I want to ask the question how many times have you walked
into your local grocer or convenience store to buy a loaf of bread and you walk
up to the pay point and you are 5c short and you have to put your bread back just
for that. I know that has happened to me before, now it is not a Life and
Death Matter
for me or you, but it is a reality for people in places
like Haiti.
How many times have you thrown away that 5c or told the Cashier
to keep it as you don't want, now imagine if collected how much of a difference
that could make for the people of Haiti? They spent 5c on a piece of EDIBLE
CLAY, made of salt, clay, vegetable oil and sun, now imagine the difference you
and me could make, with our donations of 5c we don't need, if we just gave it to
people who actually need them.

So anyone that reads this blog is
interested Join My Cause, Our Cause it is free, all it will take from you is
awareness next time you go out for a walk. Pick up that 5c and use it wisely
I accept Paypal at Snyders.shiftyshellshock@gmail.com, it will go a long way
to make a difference
Thanks

EASY STEPS TO MAKE MONEY ON THE WEB

The Internet can be a bit of a crazy place if you are a assuming e commerce wanna be, I have been trying to make money of the internet for a few months , but nothing until I recently decided to do some reading. The Internet is a place where you can make good money, if you put in some time and effort, just like with any other 9-5 job out there. The thing is with the internet is, that it is straight forward you just have to see what you are doing to no avail.
I know it is an endless process of signing up for this and that, but no results right, well at least not for you and you, but not until now, I am very new to this, I remember a couple of years ago I made some money of a website, not that I knew how, I was at varsity broke as hell and believe me the money came in really handy. Google also keep sending me vouchers for advertising and it came in really, at a good time. I am now going to share with you some basic straight forward things that others are not willing to share, which are free, just sign up as a Follower of this blog.
Now Here Goes....
Safelist Marketing Tactics
The Best place to market your website or product you selling is in Safelist, they are free to signup for, some say it is really hard to make money here, I agree but if done the right way you can turn traffic into sales. It is all about your sales pitch, but before we get to that I am going to explain to you how to work with these safelists.
Credit safelists are the best way to advertise, but it will require a lot of reading from you. You are going to have to click on the links in the bottom of the emails in order to get advertising credits. You are literally going to receive thousands of emails a day which is going to drive you insane. This is why I recommend you signing up for two email accounts preferably with Google. When signing up for these emails, sign up for these Safelists with your email and then under Lists put in the second email.

Managing these Incoming Safelist Emails
Once you have signed into your email account open the first email

Before we get started blasting your email ads all over the place you are going
To want to add some email filters to manage all your incoming emails.
It doesn't take long after verifying your Safelist email addresses that the ads
from other members are going to start pouring in.
That's just from one Safelist. Imagine what your inbox would look like if you
woke up the morning after joining 10 or 20 safelists.
Thankfully almost all email programs have a way of sorting your incoming
mail with something called “filters”.
If you are not using Gmail check the instructions for the mail program you
are using and I am sure you will find something similar.
Using Gmail we are going to setup a simple email filter that checks to see
where your incoming emails are coming from and then assign a “label” to
those messages that tells us which Safelist sent them.

To create a new filter in Gmail you will need to open one of the Safelist
Emails in your inbox. Select “More actions” at the top of the page and
choose “Filter messages like these”.
Gmail should automatically enter in the email address that the Safelist email
was sent from. In this case the “From:” address in all your AdTactics emails
should be “bounce@mailer1.adtactics.com”. If it's not, check the email to
find the correct address.
Click “Next Step” to continue.

Select the “Apply the label” checkbox and choose “New label”. Since we are
Sorting all the incoming emails from AdTactics lets name this label
“AdTactics”.
You can also apply the filter to the emails that are currently in your inbox.
Click the checkbox that also applies the filters to your old emails and click
“Create Filter”.

Well now you are ready to start marketing your product well almost ready;
In order for you to build your own list of clients to email to you are going to have to build a FUNNEL.
What is a Funnel?
A Funnel is your list of contacts which you have built, you are at the top and beneath you are your people that are affiliated to you, to build this list you are going to have to put a Lead Capture Page at the front of you website.
You are going to offer everyone something free in exchange for their; Name, Email (This is how you are going to email them their free gift).
This how you will build your relationship with your list and this is how your funnel will grow and you gain the trust of the people on your e mail list. It has been said that people will only buy from you if they trust you and this is your aim, you give them free e books or some other gift and eventually when you want to you will be able to sell your products to them because they trust you. You are going to have to work hard at doing this.

Money is an Endangered Species Save The Buck

In these times of recession money has become somewhat of an Endangered Species and saving has become a luxury. But there are ways of beating the recession and saving the Buck.
I have decided that I am going to share my secrets with you. I know it sounds like an internet self help book that's going to teach you how to make money,but I am not selling anything.

And these are no secrets either, they are just some forgotten survival tips, that I am going to help you to re discover. These tips have been invaluable to me over the years,but it requires you to fly under the radar. You can not be seen twice at the same place or atleast, not wearing the same disguise a.k.a outfit.

I know the suspense must be killing you by now, well understand this, it is not always so easy to reveal your survival tips, let alone part with them to millions of people on the internet. Some businesses pride themselves in being a monopoly (not the game). The more competition the less your profit or sometimes, chances of success.

Well I have said enough and now it is my chance to make a difference in the world.
MONEY EARNING TIPS

Before you can start saving you have to earn money first;

TIP1: Work at a bar Good money, I will explain later why I say this.

TIP2: Start your own business, make your hobby a money making machine, if you like jewelry, art,driving lessons, believe it or not it is very in-expensive doing this.

TIP3: Recycle; You can make money of other people's junk and you hitting two birds with one stone, you helping save the environment.

TIP4: Become a sperm donor; in some countries your little past time stress relief hobby can actually earn you some money and provide someone else with a bundle of joy.

TIP5: Try out for TV extra work, easy money for just a few hours and the benefits are endless, I will explain more about the benefits later.

That was just a few tips feel free to add more life's suppose to be fun enjoy life, living and making money you will live longer.

MONEY SAVING

The primary need for humans according to Maslow's hierarchy is food and in these times scamming food from neighbours and family is most important.Always make sure you around the neighbourhood during lunch time nobody will eat without offering a guest something to eat and drink.

Another more legitimate way of saving on food is by shopping at Wholesalers, gang up with friends and go grocery shopping together, you can buy in bulk and will save in bulk too. Look at it this way by the time world war breaks out again your underground bunker will be stocked up.

Grow your own veggies, be self sustaining and you will save loads of money. I know ypu are thinking of this, and no you cannot keep a cow in your backyard, unless you are old McDonald.

To keep some of your veggies fresh you can pickle them in jars and for meet you can salt them and dry them out.

TIP2: Start a car pool to work with friends, you split the petrol, gas whatever you call it and you are helping omit less co2 into the air, if you don't have friends to do this, take the bus. This is good for nature less traffic and you save on the mileage on your car. tires, gas/petrol, money, Save! SAve!! SAVe!!! SAVE!!!.

TIP3: Rent a house with friends, if you are still a bachelor or bacheloret, you save loads of money on rent, electricity, food(wholesale buying), transport.

TIP4: Those big nights out can also save you alot of money on drinks, you can either try this, but it is not advised.You contribute alot to the Beer companies and I don't think they will even miss your contribution.
Why pay for drinks OR even Entrance to a party

It is all about arrogance, if Celebrities can get away with it so can Civilians right, they both start with a C, no difference to me. Who the hell are door people to ask if you've paid DO THEY KNOW WHO YOU ARE? lol That's if you used the door.

In case that fails every party has a side door in case of Emergency (God Bless Fire Departments). You are bound to find a sidedoor or open window without a Meathead Bouncer.
If you do use thefront door Target the VIP List, Names like Jonathan, Michelle and Sarah are sure winners. It is all about composure, you may be sweating bullets on the inside, but on the outside you're a (fake) Armani suit and perfect teeth. If you look like model nobody will stop to question you. You can even make snide remarks like, "SHOULDN'T DOOR PEOPLE BE MORE ATTRACTIVE?" and 'DO YOU KNOW WHO THE F*** I AM?'. Of course they don't and why should they? You're some schmuck without a cent to your name, but they don't know that.

PLAN A

Find the drunkest people in the place, station yourself next to them at the bar and when they re-enact the last 10 yard dash for the touch down, casually slide one of their drinks in the palm of your hand and meet those friends of your's on the other side of the bar and for extra flare, pack down on the side of the touchline, drink in hand and laugh heartily. Good one, fellas!

PLAN B

If you're a girl, find the nearest schmuck and convince him that the two of you went to primary school together and that he should buy you a drink to celebrate your reunion. It worked on me and I went to an all boys school.
If you are a guy you should stoop to an all time low, but since nothing can be lower than your bank balance. Locate the lonely guy drinking at the bar, all on his lonesome pathetic self, start talking to him about Soccer, Football. If that doesn't make a connection with Mr Self-Destruct, try claiming that all women are the enemy. Offer to buy your new found buddy a drink, do the pocket padding down routine, as if you have a wallet to find. Upon discovering that you left it in the car again, silly you , apologise and offer the next round. He will feel obliged to buy this round. If the lonely guy start talking about shoes or wearing a pink, you could be in for a whole lot more than a free drink.

Never let it be said that you are scum for getting things for free. Rather, let it be said that you subscribe to Darwinism, and that survival of the fittest, half the people aren't sure what Darwinism is and they will believe you anyway. While at it tell them you are also a Hare Krishna and that it doesn't permit you to work for money, but rather rely on the good nature of kind people for food and shelter.
The world is your Oyster, now find a buyer for that pearl.

Referring back to Tip1, you can earn and get drunk for free or at less staff discount.
Tip5, you can get free lunch, I know, first hand experience Mr Tv-Extra himself. Bonus you can rub shoulders with celebs,you are looking at significant social profile upliftment.

Now for the top 5 Money saving Manoeuvres:

Find Half Price pizza huts, Rib Shacks, all you can eat buffets and prawns specials(still hold the record for the most prawns on a monday night crab shack)

Spend time near British Tourists lots of Pounds no friends

Sit next to big tables in strip clubs and watch their table dances

Drink draught beer, tastes better, costs less

Find big Christmas company parties, put your drinks on their tabs.

Well go out there and start living economically and remember some of these tips are just guidelines just like the Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy and are not recommended nor frowned upon by the Author, but desperate times call for desperate survival tips.Enjoy Living a longer fuller life.

Money saving tips for that Overseas trip

The world has become very accesible for people of our generation, since travelling methods have grown so advance. Now can you imagine living a hundred years ago when transport was non exsistent and it took people weeks to months travelling from one destination to fetch neccesities. Travelling has become somewhat of a luxury compared to back then. I like millions of other people of adventurers love to travel but it is so expensive to go to places like those we see on those Travel Tv shows.

So what I decided to do is try and go all Frommer Travel Guide and see if I can come up with some travelling tips to save you and me and him from getting that whole in your pocket.
Tip1: Get a job as an Au Pair, I love kids, but it is a different story all together staying with them and working for them, it is peer hell. But on the bright side if they pay you enough you can go travelling or even better if they own a company that requires you to travel working for their other company, they pay for your travels. THE PARENTS OF COURSE NOT THE KIDS PAY YOU!!!

TIP2: Another way to travel for free get a job on a boat, the living space isn't that big, you get gym membership, you get free food 3 meals a day I hear. Technically you are paying your way to all those beautiful destinations, nothing is free, small cabin hey don't that remind you of stepbrothers? Shotgun Top bunk. It is a roof and a few ceilings over your head and the gym membership well, look at the bright side atleast you will have something to show (pecs) for all your hardwork, when you get off the boat on that Tropical Island.

TIP3: If working is not really your thing, you can allways become a model, oh yeah by the way I hear they're looking for a lead role for the remake of that Frankenstein classic, the way you look if you can't land this role. I don't know what went wrong.

TIP4: Another way to travel in style is by joining the Mile High Club, apparently you get to be out of town every other week. So this is for you if you have long long legs that seem to never end, charming personality, bright eyed and bushy tailed this is for you. Oh I hear your flat in Madrid is empty and I was wondering if I could use it as my base? I am going for the bull run, if you don't mind.

TIP5: I am running out of ideas here, your last tip. Have you ever heard of Roadies and Groupies? Well this one is close it is the distant cousin Carnie. What you don't know what a Carnie is? Un freaking believeable, I just broke that down for you, it's almost the same as the job roadies do with all the speaker they carrying around you get to do a way cooler job. I am telling shovelling elephant crap is way cooooler than carrying speakers with no sound coming from them. Atleast you can put your new 30 GIG Ipod touch that you bought with all the money you made from shovelling Elephant doo doo doo wop. Now ain't that cool and to top it all of you can put in your Job application under previous Jobs: Landscaper, World Traveller, Visionary.

TIP5: This is by far the best job that anyone can have. You are your own boss, soak up the sun. Listen to Bob Marley. I have to say this is one of my favourites, Rastafarian oh isn't that a job? Religion. Well Amsterdam must be the main church I guess, because they worship; *ss, Weed and *ss. What did I say *ss again, must be this sigarette I am smoking, it's not a sigarette oh crap. Nevermind then.

I hope that has saved you a ton of money and for interest sake I put some place I would like to go; Spain- Bull Run and Tomato fight
Amsterdam- I hear the bakeries are the best, what!? Weed is legal? I didn't know that!
Brazil- Rio Carnival, World Cup 2014.
Missisipi- Mardi Gras.
Germany- Beer Fest.
U.S.A.- Las Vegas Nevada.
Italy- Leaning tower of Pizza, sounds delicious, Venice, Vatican city I hear he has the number of the Big man.
France- Eiffel Tower.

Climb kilimanjaro, cage dive and well the list goes on if anyone has tips to save money. Like a Sugar Mommy or Daddy let me know. Well I didn't say I was going to save their money ha.

A few more good tips: Make friends in foreign places helps when you need a roof, just be careful the Internet's ful of weirdos Lol ENJOY YOUR TRAVELS
