The other day I mentioned Steve Shulenski’s Antique photo business.
I was telling my wife about it and she let me know about a friend of hers who did something similiar…
She was already doing well in Mary Kay selling cosmetics and creating a downline, but she found another way to create regular customers for her beauty [...]

Steve Shulenski moved to the the outback a few years back hoping to escape America’s rat race and live his dream.
In the States, he’d worked for a photo company but decided he could earn more working for himself, so when he landed in Oz, that’s what he worked on. What most people don’t know is [...]

Here’s Ben Bleikamp’s take on it.
There is a learning curve if you want to make money online. There is a learning curve for any job. Some require a college degree - that’s a 4 year learning curve and can cost as much as $150,000…maybe more. Lets not even think about graduate school. So what’s the [...]

I’m in Mobile, Alabama for the next few days at the Southeastern Employment and Training Association’s Fall convention.
Here’s some of the workshops…Though I’m sure some of them will change at the last minute.
Right now I’m planning to check out the workshops on entrepreneurship and economic development, but that’s subject to change. Sometimes I have special [...]

Cindy Cullen has been working at home for the last 5 years, though admittedly she gets out of the house once in a while to teach a class at the local community college. Even her husband works at home. How did they do that? I thought you might want to know while announcing her new [...]

Here are some musings on how Teens can make money on Craigslist.

But there are many other ways to start a business on craigslist as a teen. 
Now that I think [...]

Most of us “hope” better times are coming.
But hope isn’t a plan.
Do you know the difference?
From the Cognigen Times, September 2006 edition…
Hope Is Not A Plan
One of the philosophies of successful business people is the reality statement that “Hope Is [...]

It’s Saturday so I decided to do something crazy and put up another little blog to test Blogger’s new blog creation platform.
It’s based on the Google account system so hopefully it will stop Google’s false blog spam measures to some degree.
But more about that later.
I decided to test the changes out by setting up a [...]

The other day I made a post about the Death of Adsense report.
I get a whopping 50cents if someone downloads it from my link! I doubt I’ll see a cent… there’s probably some minimum.
But the report is sure raising a stink.
Here’s what Jonathan Leger had to say… basically that it’s DEAD WRONG!
I like Jonathan’s products [...]

The Associated Press reported today the Ford has started the layoffs… 10,000 down amidst reports of buy out offers made to all hourly union employees.
While we hope they were planning ahead it’s quite likely few really believed in the dangers of these layoffs enough to prepare in advance.
Despite the slashing, Ford shares continued to slump. [...]
