If you are overwhelmed with debt and wondering how you got there, it more than likely is due to  the lack of financial planning beforehand. By having a financial plan not only guides you to manage money and avoid debt, it can lead to the road to wealth. Who wouldn’t want to be at a stage where they don’t have to worry about money.

With the way the economy is now, financial planning is even more important than before. That means having money saved for the future and any unexpected events like a job loss or illness.  Many believe they don’t have Read more »

It was 2 years ago that I was over my head in debt. That’s when I started this blog in my quest to get rid of  debt. Initially, I wasn’t off to a good start because the approach I first tried failed. That changed when months later I took a different direction.

Basically what I was trying to achieve is a blog where I could brainstorm and post what I was doing to reduce my debt that would also be helpful for others to reduce and get rid of debt too.

Although I have been promoting Amazon on some of my sites, I didn’t really fully utilize the earning potential as I should have, that is until recently. One of my sites took off like a storm about a week before US Thanksgiving. Which is good because you can only imagine the Black Friday sales on Amazon and how much they made just in the one day alone, not to mention all the extra sales they got through their affiliates and what those affiliates earned in commissions. I know because on that day I got almost triple the amount of visitors on my product site who were in the buying mode. Of course now I’m regularly updating the amazon products on that site because afterall it’s Christmas coming up and it only means more commissions from the amazon sales if I do.

My amazon product site isn’t anything fancy and really it doesn’t need to be. I use an Read more »
