I Will Not Pay More to Read Content Online

Saturday, December 3rd, 2011

So our local newspaper has decided that they want me to pay a few dollars to read more than 15 articles online. To me this would be fine if I didn’t already pay to have it delivered. Why should I have to pay extra to read it online on a page loaded with ads? I don’t read the print version myself because of the small print not working with my eyesight. The truth of the matter is I would have canceled the subscription long ago if my girlfriend didn’t read it.

I understand they are a business and their goal is to make money. If they want to make money from me they need to give me something worth paying for and not the poorly written error filled stuff they publish. Also I would prefer it to be politically neutral. If I wanted “conservative” news I would turn on faux news. I expect facts in news so I could make my own educated decisions. I am able to make educated decisions and don’t need someone to tell me what’s right.

Wanting to find a way to make honest money online

Tuesday, December 28th, 2010

One thing I would love to do is come up with a way to legitimately make some money online.  Then I would not feel so guilty even though the reason I am not out is because transportation is the issue.

I would like to come up with something that is honest and does not involve lying or scamming people.  That rules out something like 90% of the possibilities there doesn’t it?   Also out is spamming of any kind.  Spam is extremely annoying and that’s why I would not do it.

My problem really is the fact that I have morals.  Not perfect and I’ve strayed from them in the past with other things in life but I do try to stick to my beliefs.  It’s not easy sometimes but doing the right thing isn’t easy.

I don’t want a get rich quick scheme.  The only person that will get rich is maybe the person who came up with the original idea.  I just would love to find something stable.  Something that could help us get into a better place.

I am tired of feeling guilty about not doing something but I do not even know where to begin looking.  My goal for the the new year is to look harder.

My inspiration on this is my brother who works his ass off with his tree business.  Maybe he works too much but his goals are different than mine.
