How to Turn $20 into $100 in Ten Easy Steps (Or at least how I managed to do it)

Before we get started, as a disclaimer this is not intended to be financial advice but rather encouragement.  Below I have jotted down the simple formula which I have used to do just what the title claims - turn $20 into $100. The steps are easy to follow and the process only requires a bit of time and patience, an eBay account (or any online trading site you prefer) and the product of your choice. The process works. Anyone can do it. So here's how it's done... Step One: Find an item of interest that you know something about and that you can easily reproduce or purchase at a low cost, preferably less than $10. Step Two: Use $10 to purchase or manufacture the item. Step Three: List the item on eBay or any online trading site of your choice. Use the remaining $10 to cover listing and success fees.

The Christian Message in The Emperors New Clothes

After a while even his lords and ladies were sucked...

Calamari and Me

Tonight I am rather exasperated and my heart is decaying for lack of company. I’ve been on my own for nine days while my wife and wonderful child are in Ozzie lappng up the sunshine and all the other glorious gems in that great big red treasure chest. Here I am in cold but beautiful New Zealand, alone in am empty house that is so quiet I can hear my fingers banging away on the keyboard like they were angry chickens who had just walked into a KFC and seen what was on the menu… Because I am in this despondent mood I would like to talk about something that brings me much happiness. Something other than my wife and wonderful child because although they make me happy, their absence and the steady reminder of it makes me sad and leads me to iniquitous thoughts of eating more of those “hundreds and thousands cookies” I found in the pantry or the box of Cadbury chocolates that doesn’t belong to me…. Nope, I must harmonize my thoughts to brighter and nobler affections - such as Calamari. ...
