I love the idea behind this commercial.  Hey, we stole the recipe from McDonald’s because we know the breakfast sandwich at McDonald’s is good.  So, we’re just going to admit it and say hey, we sell it too.  Great ad.

If someone were to offer you an income stream that earned you $2,000 to $3,000 a month in income in exchange for working 10 hours a week for 2-3 years, would you take it?
There’s more.  Not only will the income stream earn you a few grand in a couple years, but it will also earn you a few hundred while you move towards the few thousand.
The reality is that you can definitely create an income stream like this using online resources.  It will take a couple years of working at …

I have been doing a monthly update on my blog progress and overall online income progress for several months now (as you can see below).  The result is a good basis for my monthly numbers.  You can really get a good feel for what this blog accomplishes each month by reading these reports.
In the future I will likely be adding to these reports discussing other areas of online income.  For example, I have other websites that are starting to generate revenue.  Also, I’m currently earning anywhere from $50-150 in other …

Google released a page rank update over the weekend.  This is one of the more important factors on the web.  I’m excited to have 20smoney.com jump up to a page rank 5.  I’ve had a large increase in backlinks in recent months, so I expected this.  Getting to the next level, a page rank of 6 will be more difficult.
One of my other new sites jumped from a page rank 0 to a 3.  I’m also very pleased with this.
Google Page Rank is what I call one of the “currencies” …

When it comes to your financial progress, you’re either winning or losing.  In your financial life, are you winning right now?  If not, why not?  What are the obstacles holding you back?  What are the challenges you’re struggling to overcome.  I encourage you to talk to someone, or leave a comment here and get some feedback and encouragement.
Unfortunately, with the very tough economic climate, I fear that most people out there are not winning right now.  The problem is that during the good times, when more money was coming in, …

One of the puppetmasters of our broken economy over the years has been Timothy Geithner.  He now serves as Treasury Secretary, but don’t be mistaken, he’s been one of the masters pulling the strings for some time as he used to work for the New York Fed.  He’s in the news this week saying that the disparity in the economic recovery is unfair.  At least he acknowledges that there IS a disparity.  What he doesn’t acknowledge is that he is at fault for it.
I’ve been preaching for some time that …

Tomorrow will likely bring the first job “growth” that we’ve seen in some time.  According to the CNBC article over at Yahoo, you will have to look into the details to see the truth behind the headline number.
The consensus forecast, based on surveys of economists taken at the end of last week, is for a 200,000 jobs gain in March. The economy shed 36,000 jobs in February. The unemployment rate is expected to remain steady at 9.7 percent.
As we’ve seen before, the official unemployment percentage doesn’t always move how we’d …

With the tough economy and lack of income increases in every industry and every part of the country (except government and wall st.), many people are becoming increasingly frustrated with the lack of financial progress in their lives.  This progress might be paying off and getting out of debt or it might mean just saving more.  Perhaps, it’s buying a house, or buying an investment.  Whatever it is, without capital, without an increase in income, this progress is difficult to materialize.
So, are you frustrated?
While I’m making progress in some areas, …
