MLM

I’ve thought long and hard about the pyramid thing, and decided to stick with it. Sure, it might take a couple of months to see any money back, and even when I do, it won’t pay a living wage, but it really is the only game in town. I wanted to post a really witty piece on their facebook page about qualifications, but want to think about it a little more. Many of the MLM programs that people run, hide behind some sort of training. Now, how you can train someone to convince another person to join... Sign in to see full entry.

Team Vinh

The latest is, that there is nothing you can really do to change things with this programme. It depends on people joining the Savings Highway programme first, and from that they feed people into Team Vinh. This can take months, so you are sweating on the bottom line, as to whether or not you are going to get your money back. Sure, I paid extra, to get a guy to buy me some traffic into the programme under my name. But even though he’s still in touch, I’ve seen nothing up till now. At the end of...

Team vinh

The latest is that I’ve finally got the bank account going. Up till now the bill stands at £165. There are 2 different companies. Mr Vinh Lee has his company, and it’s linked to the Savings Highway programme. This is an older scheme and a lot bigger. I signed up with this, under another guy, who has promised me an income or money back. You might say: “Dum sucker!” But it’s covered by a Paypal invoice, so I can at least track that back. Savings Highway is another $150 a month. But Team Vinh has... Sign in to see full entry.

Team vinh

The latest is, that I’m waiting for the verification of my bank account to pay the first invoices and join the programme. Because of the fact that it’s a US bank, they need a bank statement Faxed to their account. Nothing else will do. So I have to wait for Monday morning to send it off. Trouble is, we have a paperless system here, and the statements are 2 years old! Can’t get any word on this from anyone, but I’m still hopeful. As for the idiot I signed up under, that’s been resolved. It turns... Sign in to see full entry.

Pyramids!

Here’s the latest on the scheme I’ve joined. Up till now, I’ve managed to get round many of the problems with being in England having to do everything through a US bank. Namely the IBAC’s codes. However, there are a few problems. The main sponcer I’ve signed up under, a MR DB turns out to be not the full ticket. I’m all for helping special needs people, but not with my money. To cut a long story short, I’ve got round the problems despite Mr DB. The main support site for Team Vinh is the actual... Sign in to see full entry.

Savings Highway!

I’ve just signed up to the savings highway programme. Even though it’s mostly based in the US, I’m hopeful that there will be some benefits for me here in the UK. Up till now it’s cost me $320 up-front, plus a further $149.99 a month. You might be sitting there thinking: “he can kiss that goodbye,” and maybe I can. But I sent it all through Paypal, with a promised note that it can all be refunded, if it all goes tits up. I have the emails, which would even stand up in court, if it came to it....

Fool or Idiot?

I feel I have to tell someone about this, if only for my own mental health. I’m seriously thinking about signing up under a couple of MLM schemes. I know these are no better than pyramid scams, but I’m so desperate for money I feel I should take the gamble. If you have followed this column on a regular basis, you might be thinking: “There’s no fool like an old fool.” But I have to be honest, and tell you the truth as I see it. I stand no more chance of getting my money back than the other guy.... Sign in to see full entry.

What makes a Website?

Having wracked my brains over the years, about what I should put on a website, I’m somewhere near an answer. The golden rule, is to only do things which interest you. I’ve grounded these down to a few subjects. Science fiction, Importing/exporting, and writing. There are a lot more, but these are the ones which grab me for now. Science fiction cover books, TV and film, so it’s a big subject. Importing and exporting, is something I’m toying with, but let me explain. You always need a down to... Sign in to see full entry.

Quality and honesty

One thing which poses a dilemma, is the quality of the traffic you could bring to your site. One carefully and crafted article, or video, can attract a lot of attention. You can interact with your audience, and get engrossed in the cross table banter on the subject, but at the end of the day, it stops there. You can all agree on a conclusion, but for many, that’s all you can do with it. I follow a lot of Youtube channels about UFO’s, the Supernatural and conspiracies. But even if you can win the...

Clickbank and EzineArticles

Clickbank and EzineArticles These are 2 of the biggest sites on web. Clickbank is there purely to make money, and the court is open, if you can or can’t. Ezinearticle is THE place writers go when they want people to actually read their work. One of the sad irony’s is, that the stuff on this site is every bit as good as what you’ll find on their site. But the difference is, that the figures are in the millions. I once wrote an article on Concrete. I thought nothing of it, and posted it up on the... Sign in to see full entry.
