Your Personal Source  

just like you, i am also learning my personal financial skills lately from all sources. most of what i am learning now are from the internet. i keep on reading many articles on personal finance websites of yahoo, msn, cnnmoney, kiplinger, investopedia, etc. i am also learning from the ways of my japanese friends, but tracking down their expenses in a list. in this way, they are able to adjust their budget and check their expenses on certain categories.

thuhuong no as old as I am now I no longer have any personal sources but my social security and ssi and Gold crest gets most of that for my room rent and board. but I do make thirty odd dollars on mylot and another twenty on my survey each month so still have abit of resources. I have never been rich but worked part time til Iwas eighty.

My personal source is the little voice in my head and the internet, the worlds greatest library. Then you need to find things that are fun to do (hobbies or strong interests) or things you know a considerable amount about and then come up with a number of different ways to make money with each idea. Online it's a matter of diversity, i.e. for example online sales, blogging, article marketing, photography, etc. Also replication, it's about maximizing your exposure. How many sites can you put the exact same thing on. It's about allot of things, but most of all it's about residual income which comes from doing some thing once and getting paid for it over and over again. Examples of residual income are, writing books, article marketing, photography, a painting or drawing turning it into prints, a song you wrote, etc.

I'm sorry, I could go on and on because this is one of my favorite subjects. Happy mylotting.

I hate to say it, but i'm dysfunctional when it comes to working and earning money.. a good wife (housewife) and mother and gramma I am.. which is actually quite good considering things I went through in childhood (which I've forgiven) yet I have educated myself on a lot of things.. and written a couple of really good books(if only I could sell them) and have another super one to write.. sure would be nice if hubby could retire..

Hmm... I just blogged about something financial related - about saving up! To be honest, I've been seeing the TV show Til Debt Do Us Part and have been learning from the financial advise that the host gives the couples she helps each week. There's a bit of pressure on my side because there are obligations that have to be met but I am still at that point where I don't have to worry so much. I want to learn to be more wise with my finances so that I don't get to where I will be all pressured to become more mature in that area. Hope I made sense.

yes these online sources are very useful nowadays first million is not even that difficult as it used to be.
