the problem with making money while you sleep is that you’re tempted not to ever wake up. this is a potential problem because when something isn’t properly maintained it will eventually start to shrink. and i can’t afford anything shrinking right now especially when there’s still many steps ahead before i can finally become the world’s first hegemon.

anyways…

i’m feeling complacent at the moment and it’s probably success’ worst enemy. as far as i’m concerned i make money when i sleep, when i crap, when i have sex, and even when i’m not thinking about money. money money money, gosh i hate money so much i want to make it disappear. right now i use my cards most of the time so i don’t have to touch money, but i’m still not big enough to that point where i can have my “men” take care of my little (and large) dealings.

pshhh…

i better get back to work then. for starters i upgraded everything today, my blogs, my servers, my lifestyle, my security and my physique lol. good start for a brand new year.

what are you guys up to? hit me up, will ya?

people decaying around me. or is it my vision that’s decaying? structures crumbling down. the earth cracks and swallows everything dead and living into oblivion.

absolute horror.

darkness imprisoning me
all that I see
absolute horror
i cannot live
i cannot die
irapped in myself
body my holding cell

landmine has taken my sight
taken my speech
taken my hearing
taken my arms
taken my legs
taken my soul
left me with life in hell

but yet there’s still that light at the end of the tunnel. it’s out of focus but it’s bright enough to spark new life into this darkness.

why?

give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for life

because it’s easier to ask for fish then to learn how to fish. i say this to all the morons out there who never want to listen to what wiser people have to say and keep hounding their friends and family for help a.k.a. money.

why is it that people don’t want to fucking listen and learn to grow the fuck up so they can take care of themselves? i see people who can’t even take care of themselves getting married, having children and end up having to take care of their ailing parents. sometimes they even buy expensive cars or property for the sake of feeding their ego, ending in deep debts for the rest of their lives. life is truly fucked up around here.

i was fucked up too, so shut up and don’t tell me i don’t know what it’s like. i’ve been there all right, but i got out of that world, and i did by listening, by learning from wiser, smarter people, not by being an ass and doing things my own stupid way.

when i was poor i used to hate rich people, but now the richer i get (not just financially) i start to hate poor people. not necessarily because they’re poor, but because 99 percent of the time poor people have poor minds. they don’t wanna fucking think for fuck’s sake, for their unborn baby’s sake. invest in your own damn mind for once, stop wasting money for elaborate weddings and expensive dinners when you can’t even afford it.

ok enough of the f-word but i’m just pissed that a lot of my ‘friends’ refuse to listen when i try to help them out of their misery but then come back to me a few weeks, months, years later asking for help. and why does help always come in the form of money?

so basically people want fish, but no one wants to give a shit about fishing.

‘help me mister my baby hasn’t eaten for 3 days. ‘

fuck those people. they should think about using condoms before they make babies.

ok so after about a month and a half since i optimized the keywords for techfresh, it jumped, well, climbed, from page 10 to page 3 for the search term ‘gadget blog’. not so bad eh? well i’m not too happy about it, but then again i’m never known to be patient. i guess when i come to think about it i know seo pretty damn well, but i just never had the patience to wait around until something happens so i always either ‘abort’ my own tactics or switch to something stupid. ahh well, me. well i hope i can be more patient this time. still optimizing around the network, so i hope we’ll ‘own’ our niches soon.

on another note, health’s been a bitch, but getting sick made me realize of my ‘human’ side, which isn’t forever. i watched peaceful warrior last night and realized that it isn’t the destination that matters, it’s the journey.

nothing lasts forever, so make every moment count.

which do you prefer, regular blog readers or rss readers? i tend to like real-time blog readers better because they are exposed to my adsense units, but a lot of these are just one-timers, meaning that they come once and they never come back. where rss readers are more ‘loyal’ readers who actually want (or like) to read your blog again and again. you dig? well either way i have not much of either around here, but my network is getting tons of organic traffic (mostly humans, i hope) from google. organic traffic is good for monetizing a blog, but if they never come back then the few cents you make from their clicks are not repeated. but if you somehow get them to subscribe to your rss feed, then maybe your blog will stick longer and maybe their friends will check out their subscription list? which could lead to exponential growth if you give it time.

what’s your two cents on this?
