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. I started by accepting donations on the site but that aspect didn’t work out and was scrapped because most of the people who were visiting my site were also in the same boat so hardly in a position to help anyone else out. And really when you think about it, no one should expect anyone else to bail them out and just take action in getting rid of their debt.  The reality is there is no overnight solution and it’s going to take time to eliminate it.

I’m sure those who are deep in debt and in dire need of money have thought of it…”if only I could win the lottery I would be debt-free”. So what are the chances of winning the lottery? The odds say less chance than getting hit by lightning. When’s the last time you got hit by lightning?

It’s hard enough to win the lotto once but I just don’t get how a few lucky people win more than once, sometimes 2 or 3 times even. I remember one guy won millions 3 times over a span of a few years Read more »

For me making money online means freedom.  What does it mean to you? To get out of debt? To escape the 9 to 5 grind? To afford the things you want? To have freedom to do things when you want and how you want?

Since I’m not one who can work a rigid schedule for someone else so they can get richer while I slave away trying to make ends meet, I am a prime example of a make money online candidate. I like to do my own thing and my own way. I’m not afraid to take the risk even if I fail.  I would just take it as a lesson learned, pick myself up and continue on my journey to financial freedom.

For me failure is not an option as I’m only looking to succeed. I am willing to put the time and effort into it because it is for my success, not someone else’s. Read more »

Although as yet I am not out of debt but I do have a handle on it and steadily reducing it. How? By making money online. 

I have built or bought websites that I try to generate income from and flip for profit.  These are mostly niche websites that target specific topics or products.  How I earn from them is through commissions from the various affiliate programs that I joined. For example, Amazon, Clickbank, Market Health, Commission Junction, Ebay, CashCrate plus some others. I also from time to time buy aged domains from Godaddy Auctions that I resell. I  don’t have only one source that I earn from but rather various, so all my eggs aren’t in the same basket. Meaning if one fails, I have others to fall back on. Read more »
