Used Car and Auto Insurance

A friend of mine has just got another used car because her husband business is not doing well. They sold off the Mercedes to get a cheap used car from Korea. I think it’s a wiser move since paying for the monthly installment of a Mercedes is not an easy task. Furthermore, they are paying [...]

Spa Business

Hubby asked if I’m interested to set up my own spa business but I told him that I’m not. I haven’t ran my own biz since we have kids and I don’t feel like starting all over again. Besides that, you can’t just involve in running a spa or salon without training. I think I [...]

Blogged.com

Out of the blue, I was checking out my spam box and see if I miss important emails there and I found that I received an email from Blogged.com. Apparently, my kids blog was voted with a score of 8.5 under the children and teens category and I can’t even remember if I submitted my [...]

Removing Kontera?

I wonder if I should just remove Kontera from some of my blogs as I don’t do well with it. I can’t see any significant increase in the earning so I guess it’s a waste of time waiting for my payment. My blogs don’t have a lot of traffic, so it’s not easy to make [...]

Search Engine Friendly Website

I have no idea how long will paid reviews be working out, but there are not a lot of offers available if you are from Asian and surviving with low page rank. Thus, one of my blogger friends talked to me about getting up some online services on our own. Promoting your sites with paid [...]

Freelance Makeup Artist

Hubby’s cousin is working as a beautician and makeup artist, but she’s a freelancer after having her baby. It’s easier to take care of her 8 month old at home while doing bridal makeup once in a while. However, I don’t think she can get customers easily as she is only depending on mouth or [...]

The Conversation Between Problogger and Underground Text Link Seller

I found that the conversation between Darren and the underground text link seller, Shawn, is pretty amusing. Most of us would be drooling over the offers but Darren stayed firm on his principles of not selling text links. You can see how desperate the seller was when he increases the price so many times but [...]

Rent A House First

BIL has shortlisted a few houses that we might be interested in so that we can check them out once we reach there next week. We are running out of time, so things have to be done in a quicker matter. We will only rent the house for the first few years, and besides that, [...]
