Heating System from Northern Gas

I am glad that I stay in a country with only sun and rain. I don’t have to worry about winter clothing or Central heating of my home because it’s too hot to ever need one here! However, I have a friend who’s working in UK. He has been there for the past 7 years, [...]

PageRank Update Again

I’m not excited about the latest page rank update since most of my sites are being ranked as zero. On top of that, they are all linked together so it’s like all going down together as a group suicide. LOL! If I’m relying on the money from blogging, I would do my best to rescue [...]

Earn More with Better Reviews

I don’t get a lot of offers from Sponsored Reviews for the past few months. Previously, I could easily get some high paid reviews and I would always put in more effort because of the price I was being paid. Let’s admit it, if you get more money from a review, won’t you be putting [...]

Setting Up Business Elsewhere

We will most probably move away now and hubby is going to set up his business in an unfamiliar land. Everything is going to start out in small scale and if possible, we will try to set up a home office first since the business nature is more about trading goods. We don’t have Delta [...]

The referral program is not working for us anymore as according to the [...]

Running an e-Learning Center?

We are trying to look for potential buyer for our learning center. It’s more like a tuition center now, but none of us are interested to run the business anymore. One of the teachers suggested that we change it to an e-learning center that teaches kids computer programs. I don’t like the idea as you [...]

Adverlets is Dead

I never sign up with Adverlets as I didn’t do well earning from ads. I don’t like to have my sites crumbled up with lots of unwanted buttons or logos that don’t bring me money. Besides that, I haven’t heard anything nice about this company since the day it was launched. Don’t ask me about [...]

Managing Expenses for Chinese New Year

It’s all about money this month. Let’s admit it, we really need a lot of money preparing for Chinese New Year. It’s a norm to prepare the new clothes, mandarin oranges, all sorts of offerings if you are a Taoist and those red packets full of money in them! If you have a year end [...]

Shopping But Not Paying

I did a lot of shopping this afternoon and considering the fact that I’m not earning much, hubby is going to pay for all my purchases! Luckily, I found that one of my Best Reward Credit Cards has more than 34k of reward points, so I can redeem something nice from the points collected. It [...]
