I have this whiteboard at home.
I’ve wrote down on the board that I wanted to take 3 vacations.
Now I didn’t think i was able to achieve all these goals, but I wrote them down anyways.

These were my goals:

1. Florida for Christmas,

3. Punta Cana in February for my birthday.

I didn’t think it would happen, I didn’t have the cash to afford all of that.

Once I wrote down my goals, Things started to happen…

I made a mental commitment to try to make enough money to do it.
I ended up earning alot of cash, but not enough money for all 3 trips.

So other things happen.

Vegas ended up being almost free. I turned it into a business trip,
plus had friends spiting the cost. Which saved money allowing me
to afford my Punta Cana Trip. Which ended up being the BEST TRIP EVER!

So Why Do You Care?

Write down your goals; and stick to them.
You will be amazed on how much you actually get done!

“Aim for the moon, and if you miss you’ll end up among the stars”

It doesn’t matter what it’s for; poker, im, blogging, ppc.
Just Write Them Goals Down!

That’s it for now. Go and enjoy the rest of your day!

What I’ve been up to…
Hired a programmer to help create a forum + arcade hybrid.
( still have weeks of customizing to do)
I am hoping this will in time, double/triple my current traffic,
thus increasing my revenues. You can check it out Zombie Games

I’ve revamped an old website from 2005. The old website had some traffic
and was not making any money. So I redesigned it and slapped up some adsense ads
and volia it’s making money. Iam very impressed with the results. Actually,
it’s some of my highest earning clicks even though The site only makes $1 – every other day.

But the cool thing about it is that EVERY CLICK i get is $1.00+, with one click being $2.45.
On my other adsense websites my average click revenue is only $0.15

On other news i’ve been “media buying” with terrible results.
One website i spend $100 in 1 minute and I made 6$ ouch!
It’s amazing the amount of traffic that’s out there and how
fast you can get it.

Until next time…

Have a good one!

Who would have thought a “blog” could have brought in sooo much money.
“Bankrate” has purchased the blog, Bankaholics.com.

“BankRate” will pay $12.4 million up front,
with another $2.5 million possible depending on terms of the contract.

This blog isn’t a 20 person blog, It’s a ONE-MAN show! Who’s the man? Johns Wu.
And he’ll be sticking around to assist in the transition and remain on board for the time being.

This is a inspiring story
Keep on blogging, the millions will come!

TIPS ON PUMPING GAS

I don’t know what you guys are paying for gasoline…but here in California we are also paying higher, up to $3.50 per gallon. But my line of work is in petroleum and has been for about 31 years now, so here are some tips on how to get more of your money’s worth for every gallon you buy.

Here at the Kinder Morgan Pipeline where I work in San Jose, CA, we deliver about 4 million gallons in a 24-hour period thru the pipeline. One day is diesel, the next day is jet fuel, and followed by gasoline—regular and premium grades. We have 34-storage tanks here with a total capacity of 16,800,000 gallons.

Here are some tips I’ve learned over the years to get the full amount of gasoline that you pay for at a gas station:

1. Only buy or fill up your car or truck with gas in the early morning when the ground temperature is still cold. Remember that all service stations have their storage tanks buried below ground. The colder the ground, the more dense is the gasoline. When it gets warmer, gasoline expands. So, if you’re buying in the afternoon or in the evening, your gallon is less than a gallon in the morning. In the petroleum business, the specific gravity and the temperature of the gasoline, diesel and jet fuel, ethanol, and other petroleum products plays an important role.< /FONT> A one degree rise in temperature is a big deal for this business. But the service stations do not have temperature compensation at the pumps.

2. When you’re filling up, do not squeeze the trigger of the nozzle to a fast mode. If you look, you will see that the trigger has three (3) stages: low, middle, and high. In slow mode, you should be pumping on low speed, thereby minimizing the vapors that are created while you are pumping. All hoses at the pump have a vapor recovery system. If you are pumping on the fast mode, some of the gas that goes into your tank becomes vapor. Those vapors are sucked up and routed back into the underground storage tank—so you’re getting less worth fo r your money.

3. One of the most important tips is to fill up when your gas tank is HALF FULL/EMPTY. The reason for this is that the more gas you have in your tank, the less air is occupying its empty space. Gasoline evaporates faster than you can imagine. Gasoline storage tanks have an internal floating roof. This roof serves as zero clearance between the gas and the atmosphere, so it minimizes the evaporation. Unlike service stations, here where I work, every truck that we load is temperature compensated so that every gallon is actually the exact amount.

4. Another reminder, if there is a gasoline truck pumping into the storage tanks when you stop to buy gas, DO NOT fill up! Most likely the gasoline is being stirred up as the gas is being delivered, and you might pick up some of the dirt that normally settles on the bottom.

Hope these tips will help you get the most value for your money. DO SHARE THEM WITH OTHERS!

WHERE TO BUY USA GAS (vice Middle Eastern gas). THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW!

Gas rationing in the 80′s worked even though we grumbled about it. It might even be good for us!

The Saudis are boycotting American goods. We should return the favor. An interesting thought is to boycott their GAS. Every time you fill up your car, you can avoid putting more money into the coffers of Saudi Arabia. Just buy from gas companies that don’t import their oil from the Saudis. Nothing is more frustrating than the feeling that every time I fill-up the tank, I am sending my money to people who are trying to kill me, my family, and my friends.

I thought it might be interesting for you to know which oil companies are the best to buy gas from and which major companies import Middle Eastern oil.

These companies import Middle Eastern oil:
· Shell……………………… 205,742,000 barrels
· Chevron/Texaco………. 144,332,000 barrels
· Exxon /Mobil……………. 130,082,000 barrels
· Marathon/Speedway… 117,740,000 barrels
· Amoco……………………….62,231,000 barrels

If you do the math at $30/barrel, these imports amount to over $20 BILLION! (Since oil is now over $100 a barrel, the total is more like $70 BILLION!)

Here are some large companies that do not import Middle Eastern oil:
· Sunoco………………0 barrels
· Conoco………………0 barrels
· Sinclair………………0 barrels
· B P/Phillips…………0 barrels
· Hess………………….0 barrels
· ARCO………………..0 barrels

If you go to Sunoco.com, you will get a list of their station locations near you.

All of this information is available from the Department of Energy and each is required to state where they get their oil and how much they are importing.

Moreover, CITGO gas is owned by Venezuela and therefore under the control of a Dictator who hates Americans.

But to have a meaningful impact on our country’s oil imports from the Middle East and Venezuela, we need to reach literally millions of gas buyers. It’s really simple to do.

I’m sending this note to about thirty people. If each of you send it to at least ten more (30 x 10 = 300)…and those 300 send it to at least ten more (300 x 10 = 3,000)… and so on, by the time the message reaches the sixth generation of people, we will have reached over THREE MILLION consumers !!! If those three million get excited and pass this on to ten friends each, then 30 million people will have been contacted!

If it goes one level further, you guessed it…THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!!

Again, all you have to do is send this to 10 people. How long would all that take?
