It’s the time of the year where I realize just how poor I really am.
Yes, the time of the year when my favorite band is releasing a million and one things, and I don’t really have enough money to buy anything. Several singles, and album eventually, 15th Anniversary DVD, and then a tour dvd after their tour finishes.
Also throw in the fact that I would have to import them all from Japan, and the costs goes well over $100. Oh yeah, and I’m trying to get about $100 for something else.
Oh my empty pockets, my moneyless bank account (actually, I don’t have a bank account…) why do you curse me so?!
The road to making money is not always an easy one.
Awhile ago I made a list of ways to make money online and have been trying several of the services in an attempt to make even a little extra cash.
Thankfully, my efforts have not been completely useless. I’ve gotten paid a couple times for paid-to-post services and won a couple times on the “thelastpostwins” website (which is down at the moment). This all brings me just shy of $50 in my paypal account.
I also have a little less in my Adsense account, however I consider that unreachable money. I still haven’t filled out my tax info so the money will just sit there. I desperately wish they would send money to paypal since that’s where I want/need the money.
But despite the hardships I will not give up - I will make money online!
Though I ask you, my fellow bloggers, how goes your money making quest? Have the gods blessed you yet with that lovely $10,000 monthly check?

aad yes the dreaded online money making quest
disregarding all my other sites and only including my blog I made a whopping $56.25. Through paid posts, adsense and various other services. The problem is half of that money I have yet to be paid!…so technically I only made $24 last month. I recently monetized my blog though (june) and from all indications this month will be big! (i hope)
I’m poorer than you and I live in an expensive country
Anyway I have around 8$ on AdSense and around 20 on paypal thanks to paid posts. I will never see adSense money if I don’t reach the famous 100$.
I have some cents on Adbrite and kontera too.
