Back on the Upside
As predicted, I’m back in the saddle with Associated Content. Sure enough, after 4 rejections all at once I hit on a good news story and they quickly bought it. They published it on the front page of the news section, so it’s getting a lot of views and comments. Glad I didn’t give up [...]
Loves Me. Loves Me Not.
My love/hate relationship with Associated Content carries on. Some days I send a few articles for up front payment and they’re all accepted, I get some cash, and it’s love at first sight all over again. Other days, like today, I get 4 rejections. The reasons I get are usually either “content is too common” [...]

Multiple Income Opps = Better than One
It’s the “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket” approach to generating an income working from home. There really are some legitimate ways to make some money, but most people find that there isn’t ONE get-rich-quick or even pay-the-bills income opportunity out there. The good news is that if you add up several of [...]
