Don’t watch “Mad Money”. He has to pick so many stocks every day that he is not as discriminating as he should be. If your looking for quick money you might as well go to a casino and play roulette, you have about the same odds. Stocks are a long term investment.

Either use an Action Replay.

Or walk your dogs, sell your junk items you don’t need.

Or enter competitions every day. And win.

You should realize that saving and investing are 2 different things. The way to save for the future, more than 5 years or for retirement is through non-load mutual funds or ETF’s. Retirement savings should be in a IRA, preferably a Roth IRA. People used to buy real estate and hold it for 5 years or so and then sell it for a profit, but since the market is bad and the price of homes are falling these people are losing a lot of $$$$$. So there are no
“fast” or easy ways to make money. Be careful and never invest in anything you don’t understand!

Well I think the only way to guarantee the success of your business will be to discover within yourself what your passion is. The list can run for miles with ideas for a business for you, but unless you truly will enjoy spending many hours a day updating your website with relevant content, you’ll end up getting bored with it. And so will your visitors.

I would suggest making a list of things that cater to your needs, interests, profession, or hobby (or the women closes to you) and create an interesting way to share that with the world through a website. You’ll find that if you can share an interesting view on the simple things around us, many people will follow you.

If you’re interested in generating additional income through advertisement on your website, consider Fast Google Cash Online. They’ll teach you how to generate lots of additional income on your website. It’s a great resource to have.

If I had a business idea, I wouldn’t tell anyone. Entrepreneurs try to solve a problem or bring supply for a demand. So being creative is an attribute in entrepreneurs.

Read the rich dad/poor dad series by robert kiyosaki…easy reading and written by a guy who thinks like you and has made it……it was on the best seller list for ages but only a small proportion of people who bought it actually read it…
It’s cheesy to say it but if you are 100% positive in your attitude and believe in your self, you can accomplish anything.
ALWAYS do your research before taking on a financial responsibility and ALWAYS read the fine print…that is why people fail because they believe what they are told by others, rather than checking for themselves….
READ,READ,READ…learn from everyone….treat all “mistakes” as a learning opportunity (and there will be some of these) and you will succeed.
Your parents love you and want the best for you but I have learned the hard way that not every one in this world thinks like we do… Doubt in themselves means they doubt all those around them, even those they love…it’s the negativity thing.
Surround yourself with positive people only and reassure your parents that you will do your best in what ever you decide to do…if they want you to go to college, then take the opportunity and study economics or management…something you can use in your future empire building! It might not appeal much now to you but a solid understanding of how the BIG PEOPLE move the worlds’ BIG MONEY….will help you get into that world…
Good luck…

It is a copyright violation to use someone else’s copyrighted material, and photos you find on the internet (or elsewhere) are copyrighted unless explicitly put in the public domain.

That said however, you qualify for fair use under the copyright laws. You are not hurting the copyright owner’s ability to make a profit from their images, you are making a transformative use (not using them in the same way the copyright owner does), you are not attempting to make a profit. The only thing you can do to make this more “fair use” is to be sure to use only a small fraction of any given collection.

Include a disclaimer as well, stating the source/owner of the photos and that you believe your usage falls under fair use exceptions. The idea is not to protect yourself from the copyright owner, who will never sue you for this, but to indicate to your business teacher that you are not breaking the copyright laws out of ignorance or malice.

They are all scams, I suggest you to better stay away from this BS.

Brenton Parker answers:

I go on this website during my free times. You can earn e-gift cards for like Amazon.com or cash through Paypal, or other prizes they have. But the only website I know for sure that is legit is SwagBucks. They have many users and you’ll never find anyone complaining of any scam and all. All you need to provide is your e-mail address and your name. You basically win these “SwagBucks” for searching and with those, you can redeem prizes they have there. It takes a while to get enough points (otherwise they’d be out of business) but it’s not hard and it’s just for fun. (for me anyway) Sign up here if you’re interested http://swagbucks.com/refer/300243 That is my referral link, I would greatly appreciate if you signed up under my account because then I can earn more for spreading the word~! If you don’t feel comfortable about the legitimacy of this site, try searching on YahooAnswers if it is real. Every one of them will say so. Here are some tips that might be helpful so you are not lost at first http://postwhateverblog.blogspot.com/

Sell something on eBay!

Brenton Parker answers:

You could sell some things in a yard sale or to a pawn shop type store (like Cash Converters).

Or you could do some work for neighbors like wash cars, walk dogs, mow lawns (if it’s warm where you live), shovel snow (if it’s snowy where you live), etc.

There really aren’t a LOT of ways to make money really quickly and legally… Even illegally.

EDIT: There is the obvious rout… Get a job. But that might take a bit longer to actually find a place that’ll hire you. And when you get a job, you have to wait for your paycheck, unless you get a job under-the-table. But that is technically illegal.

Learning a language in 6 months is a stretch no matter what language it is. The easiest and fastest way to make money programming in my opinion is to develop an iOS application (iPhone, iPod touch, etc.) The main way these are made is through the Objective-C programming language, which is Apple’s main language, and also with Cocoa and the iPhone SDK. Apple has tons and tons of help articles, here is the link to the developers page: http://developer.apple.com/devcenter/ios/index.action
To register to post your app, it is $99, but I believe the articles are free.

Brenton Parker answers:

You have way too much stuff here! And a Masters in ICT is not going to work without an undergraduate foundation.

You need to sit down and think about what kind of job you want and what your skill set is.

Firstly, are you artistic or logical. That is the first big divide. The creative/graphics design work can only be done by people with artistic flair. Does not mean you can’t teach yourself to use Photoshop, just that you cannot create visuals for a living unless you have an eye for this stuff.

If you are logical, are you hardware or software orientated? Do you enjoy taking things apart and repairing them or do you like mathematical puzzles.

Once you have done this exercise, your field will be narrower. You can do another undergraduate degree, teach yourself from the internet, take some vocational courses or take a look at the Open University offerings.

Brenton Parker answers:

You could go to college for a web development diploma as you support yourself with your current job. With a diploma, you can then work your ways up in the field. I don’t think a degree in it is necessary; the Internet changes programming code every 18 months, so the Internet would change too much by the time you would finish a degree. That’s why I recommend a diploma rather than a degree or trade school. I went to a trade school and they didn’t teach, but they took my $5,000; crooks. I went to a college for a diploma in Web development and I got a good education. I’m still in the college now.

Brenton Parker answers:

Though, you will read and be approached by many so-called experts, who tell you how they made millions out of blogging and how you too can earn that much. In addition, they tell you blogging is all play and no work. But blogging is nothing like what most people tell others. It’s a serious hard work and the chances of success, to passionate people, are more or less the same as with other real world professions.

To get you a fair idea of blogging, from earning perspective, let I share with you some facts:

Before answering to your question, I want to put a fact: majority bloggers earn nothing, a small number earn something equivalent to a cup of coffee a day, rest make either modest or big money.

So when you ask “Can someone make a living out of blogging?” then the true answer is, even if very difficult, it’s possible. One can earn a living, and one can earn big money too. But why one limit the scenario to blogging, most professions and careers present the same picture, more or less.

Now let I give a preview of the earning potential of a blog:

If your idea is to earn by showing ads from ad programs like Adsense, Kontera, Adbrite etc. Then your earnings will depend on the number of clicks you manage to get on your displayed ads. On an average, if your blog content is good, means if the content shows good context ads, and if you have 300 blog visitors then you will have 2-6 clicks on your ads. Studies show ads on websites have a click ratio of around 2 percent. Thus for every 100 visitors one can expect to get 2 clicks on ads. Or in other words, out of 100 visitors to a blog, only 2 visitors click on an ad. This translates into, 1 or 1.2 dollars a day for a 300 visitor a day blog.

If your idea is to earn revenue by selling products through affiliate links; or sell your own products/services, then again, the earnings will depend on your blog traffic. And the chances of a visitor going for a buy, is again around 2 percent.

———————————————————————————————————————————————–
Regarding who new bloggers should look up to, my answer is: You should look up to people like me, the website packagers, who will neither promise you the moon nor overwhelm you with the difficulties. What they’ll let you know is the real picture and how to overcome the difficulties that a blogger faces during his/her blog’s initial life cycle.

Thanks

This may sound really silly, but it works for a lot of people. Take a paper plate and cut a hole out of the middle. This is where you will attach your video camera lens. On the paper plate draw a face. Now when you talk to the camera it will feel like you are talking to a person. You could name your new plate-person-friend something silly. That way you will smile when you look at the camera. Also, you could just put a real person’s photo there – it works just as well. Good luck.

For WordPress users…

Word Press already pings one service.
Here’s alot more to add.

In WordPress just log in to the Admin Area,
Go to Options–> Writing, and at the bottom
you’ll see a text area under Update Services.
Paste the list below in there and click
Update Options.

After that, whenever you post to your blog
Wordpress automatically pings all the services for you.

Posting will be just a little slower due to
the amount of pings going on, but it’s worth the
wait because it’s free promotion for your blog.

You can add these websites in the list:

to submit your Feed URL to all the blog directories
manually, to initially get listed.

I also get quite a bit of traffic from these

All are free.

When your writing a post for your blog,
treat it just like an individual web page
your trying to optimize for the search engines.
Include the keywords in the title & body of the post.

Also, you want your post to look similiar to this…

Http://webmasterautomation.com/blog/2007/01/27/reciprocal-linking/

where the keywords are included in the url.
You do this under Options–>PermaLinks.
Then choose date & name based.

Hope this helps.
