Staying On Top of On Bux!

This article review is for Onbux.Com It is an extremely easy Get Paid to Click website that has the normal features of getting paid to watch 30 second advertisements, referring others and you can even rent referrals on the program.

I have cashed out a few times on OnBux.com, but nothing really substantial, a simple few dollars here and a few dollars there. For payment proofs of OnBux please go to my Payment Proof Page. I like onbux.com because it is simple, no-mental consumption of energy and referrals can really do wonders for you to make this a passive vehicle. However, when I first started out, I wanted to do all the clicking to make sure it was legit when I cashed out, to make sure no viruses were created and to make sure that it was consistent with paying out. Also, the best part of OnBux is that it pays instantly to your payout. No joke. Literally, within seconds you will have the money in your paypal to use at your leisure, it is extremely nice!

Referrals: You receive exactly what your direct referral earns. So if they earn 4 cents you earn 4 cents, etc. If you rent your referrals by using a small portion of your accumulated earnings or by using paypal, you receive half of what they earn. The obvious difference is that with direct referrals you find your friends, family, members on a forum etc to sign up, but with rented referrals - you rent them for a certain time and all you have to have is some amount of accumulated earnings.



I would recommend OnBux.com to add to your current selection of your Get Paid to Click websites, as it is consistent, pays instantaneously and is legitimate.  With a referral based, both direct and/or rented, you can build an easy passive income stream, as your referrals will find out how easy it is to click ads and get paid to view them for 30 seconds.  I use these payments as a way to curb investment brokerage fees when I do trading online etc.  The small payments I use therefore serve a meaningful purpose in my income journey.  Feel free to comment or message me if you have any questions!  Thank you.

November 2010 Earnings

Here is my November 2010 Earnings SnapShot:

	November
Revenues
Fusion Cash	$23.18
Treasure Trooper	$4.55
eHow Earnings	$5.12
ReadBud	$24.50
Inbox Dollars	$2.58
Cash Crate	$1.00
FireHow	$0.18
NeoBux	$1.57
Amazon Sales	$0.00
Swagbucks	$15.00

People String	$1.02
Cashle	$0.00
SendEarnings	$2.12
ClixSense	$2.72
OnBux	$1.26
Total	$90.76

From what I can see, this was an actually better than usual month for me, as I have been working 40 or so hours per week at a "real" job and am a Full Time Graduate Student.  Therefore, all of these extra earnings from Online, are just that - Extra.  This is nice "change" for me to use for investment purposes or to help on any other business objectives.  I haven't posted my October results, but I can say that Fusion Cash was back to its original self this past month, with over $20 in earnings and Readbud continues to amaze me with over $20 as well.  Swagbucks was very solid, as I have a great referral base there, and the passive income online stream I receive from that has been nice and consistent.

What is to come?  Well, I feel like I am back and ready to crank out better earnings then ever.  I really do, I know the months of August through October, I really deviated away from my passive income online approach and really didn't tend to any of it online, and sort of put my endeavors on the "back burner".  This month of December I will be coming out with new articles more frequently in the past, letting readers know what works, what doesn't, what has been paid to me with proof of pictures and all that.  Here goes the month of December!!!  Talk to everyone soon and keep at it!

Another Payment from Fusion Cash!

Hey Everyone! ~ Happy Thanksgiving!

Just wanted to briefly share with everyone that I received another payment from Fusion Cash in the amount of $45.24.  Here is a picture of Payment.  I am just extremely happy with that source of cash, because it is so consistent, easy and fast.  For other payments go Here.

I instantly receive it directly to paypal.  My new goal with my online earnings is to use that as another investment tool by purchasing dividend yielding stocks (another source of cash flow).  This is because I am buying assets that produce cash and that is my overall goal.  To develop more income streams from other income streams!  Also - I may use some of my funding from online to purchase option contracts, because I have taken classes on them and my friend from High School has been extremely excited about the potential profits from that.

Either which way - if you haven't signed up for Fusion Cash, please do so ASAP!  You receive $5 for signing up and it's a great way to build a passive income stream.  You can use this passive income stream to purchase others mean of cash flow via assets such as stocks, real estate, etc. - assets that can produce cash flow and have room for appreciation is key.  Sign up Here if you'd like and start earning the money!

I Have Cashed out on Readbud

Hey Everyone,

I have officially cashed out over the $50 threshold on Readbud.  If you all remember my Readbud Review post, it is a way where you click and read articles and get paid a little bid for reading each one.  It is fairly easy to gain on this website, as daily there are articles.  I will post payment as soon as it comes through, states that it takes 30 days.

I have come to realize how Readbud operates.
-If you are under a certain amount, say $20, you receive a huge load of articles per day, almost to the point where it is extremely easy to make $3-$5 per day from just articles alone.
-However, if you are over the $20/$25 mark, you will begin to receive less and less articles per day, which makes it take a little bit longer to reach the $50 threshold
-Once you are over $40, articles are extremely scarce.  You may receive 2-3 articles per day, which at that pace would typically take a few more weeks just to make it to $50, as articles range from $.03 - $.15.

I still do highly recommend checking out Readbud, as it is a free site to join and an easy way to earn some pocket cash on the side of other online income sources.  I have 4 referrals on there, that are currently at around $30-$40, which I will receive $5 once they reach the $50 threshold and cash out.  That is a great way to help in your passive income journey!

Thank you and Enjoy!

August 2010: Earnings Report

Welcome to my monthly edition of my previous month Earnings report.  Here you will find a snap shot of my earnings that I made last month, what went well, what didn't and what sites you can join to start receiving monthly passive income online.  Below is a table describing my August 2010 Earnings:

	August
Revenues
Fusion Cash	$24.26
Treasure Trooper	$7.00
eHow Earnings	$1.91
ReadBud	$5.05
Inbox Dollars	$3.44
Cash Crate	$0.00
FireHow	$0.16
NeoBux	$1.75
Amazon Sales	$2.70

Total	$69.80
Expenses
Shipping Fee	$0.00
NeoBux Fees	$0.09
OnBux Fees	$0.06
Total	$0.15
Net Income	$69.65

As you can see: Another SOLID month at Fusion Cash.  I tell you what - that is always one site I can count on that will earn me around $20-50 bucks each month, almost guaranteed.  If you haven't signed up yet - $5 Sign up Bonus for those that need to.  Swagbucks had another stellar month with $15 in bonus earnings, I receive either Amazon gift cards towards my textbooks or paypal deposits.  Also, Treasure trooper did alright, but could be better.

The downsides are Cash Crate.  I didn't spend time promoting or on that site at all for the previous month, which I will surely change this month of September.  I do enjoy the site, but just haven't been strengthening my presence there.  Also, the semester kicked back up in full swing a few weeks ago, I was in California for a week and I have also been working around 40 hours per week.  Therefore, my time of promotion and spending time to describe these sites to friends, relatives and online sites has dramatically declined which has hindered my performance.

In the month to come:  I will pull for similar earnings in FusionCash, Swagbucks, Readbud and TreasureTrooper.  I will improve my earnings in CashCrate with referrals and cash offers and I will also introduce two new websites this month as part of reviews.

I hope everyone's Labor Day is off to a great start!  Get out the grill, throw some burgers and dogs on and enjoy the beautiful day!  Talk to everyone soon, please comment below!

Fusion Cash - New & Improved Post

How are you all doing?  Sorry for the week+ long Hiatus I was on, lost my website for a week but it is back : )

As you can see I have made over $130+ from my banner up top in just a few short months, doing virtually nothing!

Anyways, I wanted to update everyone on my Favorite site to earn income online: Fusion Cash.  This by far is amazing and me just signing up, and doing the bonuses every month you can receive: $9.25; see my video regarding the bonuses -> Fusion Cash Video on Bonuses.  I just had to post another article about this, because I feel so many people are on so many different programs but are getting hassled by them, but this is one is BBB credited and has paid me twice: Payment Proof 1 is to the right ==>

My 3rd cashout of $50.01 is on its way and will arrive in my paypal b/w April 18-22nd.  I have so far received 2 payments of $33.80 and $31.80, add those 3 up and that is well over $110.  I also have over $15+ that is building up for my upcoming cashout, which I hope to place by the end of this month, so I can be paid in May.  Just look at the total above on my toolbar, honestly the less work that I do, the more it seems to just keep growing, I think this is also known as passive income?  The less time you spend and if you are making equal or more income does equal this passive force! Sign up for Fusion cash to receive a $5.00 Bonus!

<== Payment Proof 2

April Review: It has been just wonderful and amazing the additions that Fusion Cash has implemented the last 2 weeks.  They now have a twitter, and if you follow them you get money.  They now have surprise and mystery promotions, where you can earn right there on the spot.  They now have new, special free offers tab that allows you to earn even more on this site.  Offers usually pay up to $20.00.
Bonuses again, Sign up = $5.00, Post 30x in the forum (Old buddy has described this as 30 "clicks" - which is true) = $3.00, Facebook Fan = $1.00, Post a Pic Payment = $1.00 and the list just goes on with the potential you can earn.  If you gain a referral = $1.00, they do an offer = $2.00, they cash out = $5.00, honestly it JUST DOESNT GET ANY BETTER!! $5.00 Sign up Bonus Now!

What are you waiting for?!?! Get over to Fusion Cash and start earning that free money.  You start out with a $5.00 bonus and that is the best bonus ratio to cash out I have seen yet.  You know where to find me, simply message or contact me and I will help you along the way.  Enjoy!

March 2010: Earnings Summary Report

Hey Everyone!  March has ended and April has begun!  The weather is shining, it's already 60 degrees here in NorthEast Ohio and well, better yet, I have my earnings summary report for the month to show you!!  This earnings report will be the first compilation of everything that I had done in the Month of March, which is different from the other 2 earnings statement strictly on google adsense alone.  I hope you all enjoy, the month of March was a great one!  Here is the breakdown:

Revenues
Fusion Cash	$50.01
eHow Earnings	$15.09
Google Adsense	$59.73
Inbox Dollars	$29.62
Cash Crate	$22.24
FireHow	$0.46
NeoBux	$4.32
Amazon Sales	$18.97
eBay Sales	$0.00
Swagbucks	$5.00
Big Crumbs	$10.78
People String	$1.03
Cashle	$5.00
SendEarnings	$7.39
Total	$229.64
Expenses
Shipping Fees	$7.71
Total	$7.71
Net Income	$221.93

Wow!  That is all I have to say.  A nice $222 for the month of March is extremely nice!  I just started keeping a compilation report, but if one had to guess, I think that is around $75-100 more than February without a doubt!  What is so nice is that most of the earnings that are large are from less and less work and less and less time, which is really what Passive Income is truly about.  


What did I do different?  I created a different template for my blog which is more eye appealing, I used Pat Flynn's advice on creating a Favicon for my blog and was able to use other people's advice for blog suggestions.  Well, once I had a good base set in for a few of my sites such as Fusion Cash, Google Adsense, eHow and Inbox Dollars, I was able to place more focus on other sites to get those going as well such as Cash Crate, Send Earnings and Neobux.  I have created referrals and will hopefully transfer to an autopilot type mentality for those ones in this upcoming month.  As we all know, placing hard and focused efforts in at the beginning will bring wonderful results, just as we here in Northeast Ohio battle rough winters - the spring bells are ringing and flowers are blossoming (cliche I know!)  How did everyone else do this month?  I hope you saw a nice increase and were pleased with your results.  What had worked for you?  Feel free to post below and/or message me!  Thanks for checking this out!

Passive Income Topic: Dividend Investing

Hey Everyone!  It has been awhile since I have made a post, as I was in Chicago for 4 days ~ I am definitely not complaining though.  I would like to talk about a source of passive income in Dividend Investing.  I want to state that I do not recommend any of this to those that are weary or do not know much about investing, as it takes time to learn and study such topics, I simply am explaining what I have done and am doing.  Thank you.

Most people are afraid of the risk involved in the stock market - there can be risk, but only risk to the uneducated non-financial literate person.  I have began studying ways to receive other passive income routes and have stumbled on Dividend paying stocks.

A dividend, for those that do not know, are earnings shared by a corporation given back to the shareholders of stock in that corporation.  Some pay one annual dividend, others (Majority) pay quarterly dividends so that you receive 4 payments every year.  Example: One stock I own, I have 30 shares and their dividend yield is 60 cents per share. That is $18 and I will receive that every quarter or 4 times per year.

I am going to be purchasing dividend paying stocks with all of my free online money from Fusion Cash, Cash Crate, Inbox Dollars and other sites that I receive passive income from.  Therefore, I am investing with money I am willing to lose because it was free to begin with.  Of course I do my due diligence, I study probably from 50-100 different companies and narrow down my choices before purchasing their stock, so I ultimately want to win.

With dividend paying stocks they are taxed in a lower tax bracket then your normal income, because it is portfolio income.  In fact, this year, if you fall into the 2 lowest tax brackets and the dividends are qualified, you are not taxed at all!  Everything else would be 15% taxed, the tax codes are changing for 2011 however.

To conclude: Dividend Paying stocks are a great way to receive checks every quarter or every year and you really don't have to do much besides doing your homework and choosing the right stock to begin.  You can reinvest those dividends to purchase more of the stock to receive even more dividends in the future or you can use them on whatever you like.  There are tax advantages to them as well.  I wish you the best of luck on your journey, for free money sites that I use to invest go here: Passive Income Websites.   Thank you.

Again, I do not recommend any of this as I am not certified or a financial advisor.  I simply am explaining what I am doing and how I am doing it.  If anyone has any questions feel free to comment or message me.  Thanks.

Education and It's Importance to Passive Income

Hey everyone.  I wanted to stress the importance of education.  I have been a fond reader of the Rich Dad Poor Dad series by Mr. Kiyosaki and have learned many valuable points, as well as from my leadership graduate course that I am taking.

One not only needs to know technical things when it comes to solving problems and getting out of tough situations or just being in situations in general.  One needs to know how to work with people.  People and emotions change everyday or every second.  If one can understand him/herself and the people they are surrounded by they will be more successful.

A helpful tip to creating passive income I have learned is being very open minded and not only developing your financial education but also developing your emotional/personal education.  If you know someone who is earning thousdands of dollars per month of passive income, be their follower and have them be your mentor.  Understand what they do, have done and will do to ensure the income flow is there forever.  I know this doesn't really describe anything regarding a physical thing to receive passive income but I feel it is ever important to becoming free.

One needs to understand oneself and discover what they truly are passionate about.  You can turn that into a business and hire smart people to run your system and business, you can turn those passions into a blog and have multiple means of traffic to it and earn through affiliates and other forms of advertisements, you can have both and have a blog and a business and with the traffic driving them to your business website etc..

 If one can identify oneself, then they can put more of a focus on how to relate with others or how others are feeling and can relate to them.  Creating Passive Income can become powerful, with many advantages whether tax wise or life wise.  If you are open-minded and focused on others and the situation that is occurring, one can get a better education and really learn from them.  Be spontaneous and strike conversations with new people that are like-minded or not-like-minded as you are.  Put your guard down, the only thing that you are fearing is fear itself, which is just sad.

Passive Income can be made if one understands how they want to do it, the greater vision of what will bring it and continually education yourself not only technically but personally and emotionally with yourself and the people around you.

Money Online Site Review: Moola!

Hey Everyone ~ Today's Online Money Site review is: Moola!.  Of Course this site is Completely Free!  I will proceed to bring you information regarding my earnings to date, how you earn money on there, the payment process etc.


I have been a member on Moola since January of 2007 and have earned over $300+ and it has been fun and excellent all the way.  So how exactly do you earn money on this fun site!?...


Games.  That was my initial attraction to the site was because you earned based on games.  They start you out with 1 penny, and each game you can bet the amount you have to keep doubling your money.  Such as: Start with a penny, win a game, then you have 2 pennies.  Then you can play another game and bet the 2cents to earn 4 cents etc and it just keeps going until you are in 7+ Figures!  It all depends on how much you are willing to risk = it's free money anyway : )  

You can also earn money by doing the "Boosters" as you can see from the picture I have posted a little below.  These are basically little offers and surveys you can do through their booster zone, using services such as offer pal etc.  Pretty similar to Fusion Cash, Inbox Dollars and Cash Crate.  As you can see from the picture, I have earned quite a nice amount from doing these free offers/surveys.  They usually only take a few minutes to do and credit either instantly or within a few hours!  You probably remember me talking about this site on my first post regarding Free Ways to Earn Income & Create Passive Income online!

Referrals.  What would this item be doing in my Passive Income Blog if it weren't for a way to earn passive income?  Well of course with Moola you have referrals.  Not just normal one level or first tier referrals, they pay you for 4 levels/tiers of referrals.  Ex: You can earn from your referrals earnings/winnings but also from your referral's referral and so on for 4 levels.  You can really big a huge downline this way, put your feet up and watch your account grow!  If you have
friends and/or family members that would like to play games and earn while doing it, then this is a great site for them.  They have games such as High Low (which you just guess if next card is higher or lower), Rock Paper Scissors, Gold Rush, Place bets on sporting games/events and a few others.

Get on out there, have fun, play some games, invite your friends & family and earn some free money!  That is what is the best part = It is Free!  The Sky is Endless, Get after it!

Passive Income is knocking at your door and the question is: do you open it or not?  What is your favorite game on Moola?  Maybe we can play against each other!  Thanks for reading!

Why Do I Have This Blog About Passive Income?

Hey Everyone! Welcome back to my blog about Passive Income Online.  I have been writing on this blog for roughly one month and have over 15 posts.  I know I started this blog off just rambling about ways to earn free money online which can result to passive income.  BUT I never wrote a post about why I am writing about this journey I have and hope you have towards Passive Income Online.  Well here goes nothing...!

It all started After Christmas of 2009.  I talked with mere friends about a book that I wanted to read, never speaking a word of it to my family.  Christmas morning comes around and I unwrap a present.  That present, surprisingly, was the book that I had wanted to read, thought about, spoke about ~ it all just seemed erie!  As soon as I finished the other book I was reading during that time, I immediate jumped into this new book I had received.  Carefully reading every word and not being able to put it down unless it was to catch a few hours of sleep, work etc.  As you can probably already tell - this book had changed my life.

Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki was this book that I am talking about.  It has been out for a few years now and he actually has a whole collection on the series.  To summarize what I had received from it is this - I wanted to get out of the rat race of having to receive good grades, to get accepted into a higher learning education, get good grades again, get a good job to WORK FOR MONEY, to get promoted, to work harder for more money to which I have higher expenses etc~ the process simply is never ending.

Therefore, to get out of this rate race that we are so inclined to do since the age of 5, depending on when you start school, I wanted to start with passive income - more so online.  What is passive income?  Passive income is something that brings you cash flow on a frequent basis where you do not have to spend time (little time is okay for tweaks & maintenance), energy but simply still receive this income.  Wow!  Who wouldn't want that?  Where you don't do anything but collect money?  Sounds perfect to me!  The only thing is, you need to learn and be financially and sociably literate to do so.  I am in graduate school which kind of goes against everything.  I am in school though to learn - not to get good grades and get a high paying job.  I am here to learn as much as I can while I am in school (you can see my MBA Blog).  I also will go to work not to work for money, but to simply work to learn about how business are run etc.

How have I been receiving Passive Income?  Well, since I am 22 years old (as of yesterday!), I love to make money online and I simply didn't have enough funds to invest into real estate etc.  I then started this blog - Real Passive Income Online and it is all FREE.  I knew my situation and goals and figured this would be a a great place to start - graduate student, 22 years old, spends vast amounts of time on the internet, has made money on here for free before etc, it all just works too perfect.

What can YOU do to receive passive income on here?  Well I have all of these posts prior to this one that explain many ways.  I have sites from my first post - they start you off by you having to do some work (time mostly) to start earning but once you get the hang of it you move towards your focus on referrals.   I have this blog and others with google's adsense, and the more I write about my niche specific, passion driven topic - increase in traffic, which results in higher chances of google ad clicks which results in higher google adsense earnings.  I write on eHow.com, which is simply how to articles, which further brings in more.

How does this work?  Simple! The almighty Internet is a business that runs 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, 365 days per year.  What other types of businesses are open every second of the year?  Post them below please : )

I know this is a long post but I wanted to tell my main reason.  That main reason is to share these opportunities with YOU.  YOU can start relieving some stress off of your shoulders and begin creating this online passive income.  I have many posts on how to do that and get started, the ball will be in your court.  With time and an open, creative mind - the amount you can earn is truly endless.  If you have a goal, do not give up on it and instead get off your feet and make it happen.  Free passive income will be the starting point of my journey and I am curious on where it will take me.  When will you start?  When will you start?  The Time is NOW!

Money Online Site Review: Inbox Dollars

Hey Everyone!  As noted yesterday, I will begin to post on sites that I currently am using to generate this Passive Income I keep talking about.  Since I have spoken about Fusion Cash already, I will be talking about Inbox Dollars.  I will talk in the order of how long I have been a member, how you can earn money in general from there, such as the lanes of income that it can provide you, my current amount as of today, and exactly how this can turn into free Passive Income Online.  Here We Go!

Inbox Dollars is a fantastic Site.  I have been a member since January 11, 2010, so around two months.  What attracted me to the site was the easy layout design, which leads to easy navigation, which equals out to a happy customer : ) - Always a plus!  I am current at as of 3/8/2010 - $28.16.  I know, it isn't thousands of dollars, but I have BARELY spent any time on there, I mean yes I have taken some time to learn the site (which will hopefully benefit you!) and earn some while doing it.

How am I earning from the site?  Well here are the methods: Free or Paid Offers, Cash Back from simply shopping online (I have 2 others sites that do there here), Free Surveys, $5 sign up bonus : ), receiving these PAID e-mails on a frequent daily basis (usually 1-3x per day!), and referrals. Basically it is all displayed below the methods that are used : ) To make things more visual.

I personally LOVE the paid e-mails.  They are normally worth around $.02 per piece, and it takes 2 seconds to receive it - beats the PTC ads thats for sure!  Offers usually take a few minutes, earning b/w $.25 - $3.00 for the free ones and up to $15 I believe for paid offers.  Surveys take around 5-10 minutes depending on what you get.  Now you may be asking yourself - how is this passive income if you are spending the time to earn it?  Answer: Referrals and Paid E-mails.

I earn a passive income on here because of my referrals and receiving paid emails.  For some it is extremely difficult to receive referrals, but I find it fun and easy - most coming from not even trying to receive a referral, such as this blog.  I like to get to know people, provide them with information on what they need.  Referrals will equal passive income because you receive a % of their earnings!  Paid e-mails are a source of passive income I consider, because you are rumbling through e-mails anyhow and it only takes 2 seconds to click on the email.  So in about 56 days I have earned over $28 with spending some time learning the site and talking to people, I'll take that any day.

Why Sign up for Inbox Dollars?  Well, there is a $5.00 sign up bonus (you are already on Top), it's fun and real easy to earn and with the opportunity of referrals - sky is the limit on this one as well.  This site relates to the few that I have talked about in my first post on this blog.  I actually have created a YouTube Video describing Inbox Dollars!

So what are you waiting for?  Go out there and earn some free money on Inbox Dollars.  I hope to see you around on there and enjoy!  Thanks for stopping by once again to all my readers - anyone have a similar great experience?  Please Comment below!  Talk to you all soon.                     -Lanny B. 

Updated my Free Ways to Generate Income Post!

Hey Everyone!  Thanks for stopping by!  I wanted everyone to know that I updated my 1st post ever on this blog and have included 5 more amazing free sites that I am on that are generating me income.  Of course, like always, these sites have 0 investment and only need some of your time.  I only place sites on here and on that page that I know are working, credited and are functional in terms of usage.  I will only place them on here for your awareness and knowledge, as a matter of fact, only when I RECEIVE money, to which I have on 9 sites so far.  There's SO much free money out there it is incredible.  My best recommendation is to get involved, have fun and reap some of the awards the internet brings you : )

I also will be coming out with a string of new posts describing each one separately starting tomorrow, Monday March 8th, on each one of those sites.  Since I have done Fusion Cash two posts prior and include a separate Page for them already, I will pass that and go straight to Inbox Dollars.  I will, hopefully, come out with a post every other day and if not, every Monday and Thursday describing a site that I am on with updates on my stats as well.  Thanks for stopping by and Enjoy my updated Post!  Anyone have any others that they are on and would like to share?  Thanks!

Blog Tip for Beginners #2

Post Often

In order to develop more traffic to your blogs, you need to simply post more often.  I have been fairly consistent with posting and I feel that more traffic comes on days when I do post, then when I don't.  I did receive poorer results yesterday from this blog, in which I didn't post, when compared to Tuesday, which I did post.  So the Tip today is Post and Post Often.

What Kind of Posts?

Like I have stated in other blogs, post on topics you are passionate about, something that really excites you and that you know a great deal about.  Let the readers know that you can help in such a way or explain something in a better way than others, and the readers will flock.  I like to have different blogs for different topics, my Passive Income Blog, this one, I talk about things that tie in to passive income.  This tip DOES tie in to passive income believe it or not, because the more traffic you receive day in and day out, due to your increase in posts, will allow you to gradually post less, thus your time "posting" declines all the while your traffic is still increasing.  So less Time, more money from Google Adsense and other advertisers = creating that online passive income.  I have other blog sections that deal with Bank Bonuses, Going Green to Receive and my MBA Experience in my graduate program.  All of the posts on those blogs are in a specific niche and tie in with their main topic always.  This is Key

Posting often and more will drive more content to your blogs of course, which increases traffic to your blog, which increases the % chance of members clicking on Google Adsense/other Advertisers and/or your product/services, which thus increases your cash flow, which DING DING DING Creates Passive Income.

For beginning bloggers and bloggers alike, post often about niche, passionate topics and the reward will surely follow.  Thank you for reading my blog tip for today, does anyone else have any other successful tips to add?  Please comment below or feel free to message me.  Thanks!

Blog Tip for Beginners #1

Okay, well I have read many tips and have tried out different actions and here I have is an integral tip for beginning bloggers!

Comment, read and appreciate OTHER member's blogs. This is definitely important. It gives you more "Face" on others pages, thus individuals can visit your page when they see you post or see that you are a "follower". NOW before we get the wrong impression, I DO NOT recommend doing this purely to just become a follower of everyone and leave non-substance comments on their blogs, this might feel great in the short-term, but for Long-Term sustainability, it just will not work.

Have pure interest in the blogs that you read, follow the blogs that tend to your interests and send messages/comments on how you felt about them and how it relates to you. Having this will allow more traffic to your blogs, more connections to receive advice, guidance and tips on what you are doing wrong, right and what to improve upon.

In conclusion, be nice and open to fellow members on blogger and other blog web-pages. Show genuine interest and display your feelings in a kind post/comment. Rewards will come if you follow this and appreciate others work on their blogs. This is yet another step to create passive income online from the blogging-point-of-view. Thank you for reading and best of luck.

"The Gumball Machine" Theory to Passive Income

Has anyone heard of "The Gumball Machine" Theory?

Well, if so, then awesome, because you probably understand more than most.  If not, don't worry I will explain.  The Gumball Machine Theory has to do with an investment example that creates passive income.  Gumball Machines can range from $75-$200 depending on where you purchase them.  Lets create a scenario: You don't have excess funds to invest in real estate, invest into a ROTH IRA (Which I do recommend) but you do have $50-$200 dollars that you want to start earning this Passive Income off of.  You know a few local stores and other shops that have an entrance and possibly a "back" in the shop hang out spot for employees for break.  I will break down steps now:

Step 1: Purchase one gumball machine - there are many sites for this online and you can find one that you are attracted to.  Cost: $150 (Lets say - for example, of course)

Step 2: You receive the gumball machine and also buy gumballs from a distributor (normally less than 2-5cents/gumball so you can fill your machine very cheaply) - rough price $10.

Step 3: You ask the store if you can place the machine in the front or in the back for the employees.  Some will say yes, with no problem, others want a % of revenues etc.,

Step 4: Hypothetically, it was free to place one in.  Cost per gumball, lets say is 25 cents.  At the end of month one, go to the store, and check on the funds accumulated for the 30/31 days.  Wow - $50 not bad *we all know the children with parents ALWAYS want that gumball either entering or leaving the store : )

Step 5: You do this for 3 months, accumulating $150.  You just returned your investment of the machine.  Now you have created passive income, all you need is to buy and restock the inexpensive gumballs.

Step 6: Why stop?  Search and visit other stores/shops and find others to place another machine.  Therefore, lets say (of course), with 2 = $100/month, 3 = $150/month

If you purchase 3, at a sunk cost of $450, with 12 months you would receive = $1,800 (12x150).  That is a 400% return, with expenses of gumballs probably high 300 Percentile.  This is an example, and also is true for people that pursue this, for amazing potential of Passive Income.  Such simple ideas that work.  When you think of these ideas, pursue them, evaluate it, realize what you are getting into and go for it.  You need to feel confident in what you want to pursue, don't pay attention to others putting down your ideas and saying "that won't work" or "that is too risky".  You can create passive income, I know you can.  Make your money work for you, do not work for your money! Thank you and best of luck!

Free Ways to Generate Income Online!

(Updated March 7, 2010)
Hey everyone, how are you all doing? Thanks and welcome to my first blog! Of course, the topic is about making free money online, I know, I know - we have all heard, read and even committed a vast amount of time, energy and heck - even money for these sites. Well I want to simply skip all the bad and come out with great, well-proven ways to generate nice income online. This is perfect for a student (High School, College or Graduate), a stay at home Mother/Father and anyone else that seems to find free time here or there. I will Add sites that I currently am on and have proven that they are:

1. Free 2. Easy 3. No Stress

Please feel free to comment or message me if you have any questions or concerns, because I would love to help out anyone that is seeking to make a little extra each month. By the way I started these sites among the first week of the year 2010.

1. FusionCash  Payment Proof Here: Proof

Here, I have cashed out recently on January 14, 2010 for $35.55. I will receive the payment via PayPal on/around February 20th. I will explain the cash-out process after I explain the site. This site is free and SO easy. That is why I have it number 1. I have spent barely minutes/day and have generated what you see worth above in the banner. Also, signing up through the links or banner above provides you, the reader, with a $5.00 sign-up bonus! There you go - starting out up top already! In order for the $5.00 bonus MAKE SURE TO CONFIRM YOUR ACCOUNT via e-mail (same goes with the others listed)!!  It is easy to earn money on here, you simply fill out free surveys and free questionnaire type activities and the freebies usually range from $.50 all the way to $3.00. There are also daily ones that you can do every single day!!! So this site is a must for sure. The Cash-out process is: minimum of $25.00 and there are 3 methods: PayPal, Direct-Deposit and Check. They pay out the next month, so if you cash out anytime in January , you will receive the payment the middle of the following month. So sign up here: FusionCash and I will help you if need be!  Payment Proof Wants again here: Proof 

2. Inbox Dollars

Here is another site EXTREMELY similar to FusionCash listed above and the following, CashCrate, below. Again, very easy and there is a $5.00 sign up bonus to begin if clicked through my link. The process, and this goes for all, of signing up is extremely easy, free and risk-free. I have currently earned (as of 2/11/10) $24.11. So not too bad for spending a few minutes here or there. Also, they send Paid E-mails, which is great, and they come very frequent (usually a few times per day) so you are guaranteed to build some income that way.

3. CashCrate

This site has been wonderful as well. Not too sure how often my banner is updated, but as of (2/11/10) I have earned $14.75. The minimum cash-out is $20. Pretty similar to the other 2 listed above, therefore this is another great way to earn a little bit extra every month. Systems are fairly similar, with a bonus of either $2.5 or $3.00 for signing up through the link and/or banner above. You may be thinking, why is this 3rd on my list and not 2nd or 1st? Well, I feel that FusionCash credits faster, which is the most important part, InboxDollars has a nice/additional feature with paid e-mails, and CashCrate is simply just free offers like both of the two. That is why I have it listed third, which is still great, because it is a very easy, fast and, of course, free site. I do highly Recommend!

4. Moola!

This site I have been a member of for just about 3 years (off and on of course)!  It has been fun with them as they have games that literally earn you money!  They start you off with a penny every time you are at a zero balance.  Each game you have a chance to double that.  So think: .01+.01=.02, .02+.02=.04, .08, .16, .32, .64, 1.28, 2.56, 5.12, 10.24, 20.48, 40.96 etc etc.  So it is a very fun way to easily get to the $10 range within just 10 wins in a row!  They have a nice referral program as well, I believe it is a 4 tiered system.  I have cashed out quite a few times with my earnings being $184.76, and have only cashed out via check.  It is definitely a fun site to check out and they also offer similar "booster" system as the other 3 listed above.  So they intertwine various types of games (rock, paper, scissors; hi/low etc) along with boosters of doing free offers!  Try it out!

5. Prize Rebel

This site has been wonderful to me as well!  I have earned over $200 in merchandise from here including a $150 Apple Gift Card (which I used to help purchase my macbook).  You earn these Prize Rebel points from doing things similar in Fusion Cash, Cash Crate & Inbox Dollars.  You simply complete free offers and surveys, which equate out to points and you redeem these points for prizes of your choice!

6. Swag Bucks

Swag Bucks is hands down fun and awesome!  You get these "Swag Bucks" for searching on their engine, by entering Swag Codes and having referrals that give you 100% as well.  I have so far cashed out $50 in Restaurant Gift Cards, $25 total in Amazon Gift Cards and other various little gift payments such as 2 $5 Paypal payments.  A great site to earn some while doing what you already do!

7. People String

This site is definitely up and coming.  I was told about this site through some friends late in the year 2009 and never gave it much thought.  I watched a few videos from OldBuddy and wow, this site just seems awesome.  I have been on here earning people points and money for the last few weeks and it's just a great time.  Let me know if you have any questions about here!

8. Treasure Trooper


9. Bukisa

You Simply publish your articles, audio recordings and power point presentations on here.  It's similar to eHow but just expanded a bit.  They tell you what you will get paid, I believe per view, which is nice.  I just signed up for here on March 6, 2010.  So far so Good!  A very good layout and it's a pleasant experience all around.
