Earning My Money Online

Twiddling my fingers...

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 12:32:00 +0000

I have been twiddling my fingers for the past month trying to figure out the best way of increasing my net daily earnings. I am into my fifth month now and I am still a long way to go before breaking even. Now I cannot even remember if I infused fresh capitalization on top of the $209 I shelled out during my first 2 months.

Whatever the figure might be, here are some things that I am trying to muse over:

Rented referrals are human beings who bleed if they're cut.
Rented referrals, being human beings, have unpredictable clicking patterns.
Recycling referrals tends to steady the total daily clicks at a certain average. Sometimes, the daily clicks even tend to increase. Sometimes.
Recycling is expensive. The expense is a factor of how many rented referrals you currently have.
Rented referrals expire after 30 days. (Or is it 31?)
Direct referrals do not require monthly maintenance cost.
Every day, the fixed cost for rented referrals is $0.008 (for somebody like me with 1200+ rented refs)
If autopay is turned on, referrals with at least 20 remaining days before expiry who clicked at least 1 ad on that day gets extended for another day. Autopay costs about $0.007++ (I'm not sure about the exact amount).
Renewing rented referrals for another 30 days costs $0.24 (in my case).
Rented referrals who did not click for 14 consecutive days are automatically replaced FOR FREE by NeoBux.
I earn $0.01/click from my referrals.
I need to click at least 9 ads per day to earn from my referrals' clicks.
I have established sometime ago that I need to get an average of 1.47 referral clicks daily to earn. Below that, it is likely that I lost money for that day.
etc...

These and other observations which I was not able jot down led to certain conclusions and therefore new approaches to my life as a NeoBuxer.

So, if you are wondering why I am not posting snaphots of my graphs lately, it is because the images would certainly surprise you. The graphs are not for the uninitiated. :)

Snapshots from 2008

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Tue, 06 Jan 2009 23:45:00 +0000

I have been 'very busy' these past weeks primarily with tennis and with other things that is why I was kept silent and was not able to do any more strategizing than I used to have and shared with those who got interested in this little blog. Nothing to apologize for, I think, because I did not make any promises of constant stream of blog articles with tips and instructions. :)

Well, if you are one of those who followed the tips I mentioned in my later articles, I hope that my tips worked for you as they did for me. hehe

The image above shows my account summary as of 6:45EST today. The rented referral clicks is not a pretty site, I should say. Expectedly so! I was not consistently doing the recycling and renewing that I used to do before. It seems to me that the only way to have a steady trend, be it horizontal (or constant clicks rate - which is quite impossible to achieve), or either descending or ascending, is to have a consistent recycling and renewing routine. I still have 5 more hours to go and my clicks already hovers around the 900s so I am quite sure that I would hit my minimum total click target average of 1.3/ref. If you have been following my little blog, I mentioned before that I would need at least 1.3 click average per referral in order to earn. My target average is just 1.8/referral.

If you look at the renewal and recycling charts above, you would see that there was not much happening towards the end of last year. I only started recycling early this week and I will be renewing today. I have several rented referrals who have less than 10 days more before expiry.

Exciting times!

The image to the left shows my luck with renting referrals. If you are a neobux user, I am sure you have heard (or experienced if you are a golden member) how hard it is to rent referrals once you are a golden member already. It is a race, actually! You compete with thousands of other guys who happen to have the same renting time as yours. Quite sad, but I failed twice after November 4 so I was forced to use the rental queue on December 3. That was after a month of waiting and trying! Terrible. Then a week later I was lucky to get my next 100.

Renting is really a challenge and so I thought about it and figured there must be a way to increase my chances.

And there is!

A day before Christmas and a day after New Year were bullseye. Renting was never any easier! Two confirmations of a new found renting technique. I shared it with a close friend who happened to be my only remaining active referral and he was successful in his first attempt using my renting technique.

Now this is an even more exciting time, isn't it?

We have two chances at renting per day for 4 days straight starting on Wednesdays. That's a total of 8 attempts! Either I am really slow or something is really hindering me from getting my next 100 if I fail in all of the 8 attempts.

Now, here are my cashouts. I have invested a total of $209 and so far I have recovered less than half of that amount. My immediate goal now is to fully recover my total investments and then start earning.

So there it is! Some snapshots for 2008.

If you wish to comment, feel free. I do not (yet) screen the comments because I have not received any flak as yet. So please keep your flaming arrows to yourself, if you have any. hehe

And, please check out the related articles. You might find useful information there that can push your neobux earnings forward and up. We both have the same objective, I suppose, which is of course to earn from NeoBux. Share your experiences with me, if you will.

Balancing Act

Balancing Act

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Thu, 11 Dec 2008 05:28:00 +0000

I am doing a balancing act between recycling/renewing referrals and saving for cashouts. I am into my third month and so far I have only recovered around $40+ of my $209 total investment.

Unlike the previous week where I had a relatively linear referral click trend, this week my trend oscillates predictably. What is good, however, is that the oscillation hovers above the 1000s. That was my ultimate goal and I am fortunate enough that my recent method of recycling is paying dividends. I shall be using this newly crafted recycling/renewing method until such time that results will not be good anymore. I must say, though, that I am still 0.2 clicks short of my preferred average referral clicks of 1.8. Almost every week the past 2 weeks I have been trying to fine tune my strategy. Looking back, I think my strategies were not bad.

Yesterday, I was able to rent my new pack of 100 referrals. I started renting again last week but my commencement week started with a failure. I had jittery fingers last night when I prepared to rent my 100 refs. I am just happy that nerves did not get in the way of quickness. I play tennis and in my sport, if you are tense, you slow down a lot. :)

Now I have 729 referrals: 725 rented and 4 direct. Next week, I shall add another 100. Within the week, if I get lucky with the mini referral jackpots, then maybe I can add trickles of 10. hehe

Ciao!

Pure Luck?

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Sat, 06 Dec 2008 05:14:00 +0000

I am not sure if this is pure luck or another brilliant strategy. My clicks reached a new high of 1103 today. With my old strategy, I hovered around the 900s but after getting zero there was a steady decline.

With 1103 clicks and 629 refs, my new average rose to 1.75 from 1.6+ This is very good.

I wonder what it would look like tomorrow...

I have changed strategies. It is an overhaul, actually. After being able to bring my clicks back up to 972 from 0, it has been steadily declining. Immediately prior to getting 0, I already have breached the 1000 level twice: 1014 and 1018. 972, though acceptable, was still 46 clicks short of my previous high! That situation was even made more strange because I made 1018 with only 604 refs. Now with 25 more at 629 refs, I got only 972, 960, 954, and finally 881 yesterday. How could that be?

It is now 11:28AM and I already got 514 clicks. It is not yet midday, therefore, I have a very good chance of breaching again the 1000s level if the clicking trend continues. I cannot say that my new strategy works or not. Maybe the planets just lined up well for me this time. :)

I am determined to stay at the 1000s level. I have a brand new strategy. This time, it is personal. :)

Ciao!

Possibly smart, stupid by default...

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 22:07:00 +0000

I got very UNlucky with renting these past 3 attempts. The button did turn green but somebody else's fingers are more dexterous than mine so I got a "Your chosen pack is no longer available" message each of those 3 times. I turned green. grr

And so I maundered around NeoBux, trying to simmer down my already brewing frustration when I met Mr. Mini Referral Jackpot. I said "What a pleasant surprise!". "What cave did you live in?", he answered.

(to be continued...)

>>>continuation...

I studied Mini Referral Jackpot for a while. Each ticket costs $.25. There would be 5 winning tickets and each one wins the ticket holder 10 referrals. Assuming that I bought 10 tickets and one of those wins 10 referrals, the total cost for the 10 referrals would be $2.5. Normal renting costs $2.2. That is a measly overhead of $0.3. With 10 tickets from a pool of 100, I have 10% chance of winning . There is even a possibility of having 2, 3, 4 or even 5 winning tickets. I mean, who knows?

So I bought 10 tickets. Actually, 11. Total cost was $2.75. And... fire the 21 gun salute please... I lost. :) I am still smiling, though. Smart math, but a stupid move given that I only have $2.78 in my main balance at that time.

But I like the kick! So, I shall play again.

NeoBux tends to get boring if you play it the usual way: Click, recycle, renew, rent. Click, recycle, renew, rent. Click, recycle, renew, rent. Boring, right? So, to make it more interesting, put in something new into the picture. That would be "Mini Referral Jackpot" for me. heh!

Sounds like a new trail for me in this NeoBux journey...

Slow grind back to the top...

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 21:37:00 +0000

I have seen it all. Clicks go down. Clicks go up. Clicks go ZERO! All except one are absolutely simple to achieve:

1. Do not click for a day, you do not get referral clicks the following day.
2. Do not recycle referrals, you are certain to get diminishing clicks every single day after.

Simple.

Making the clicks go up, is what NeoBux users are laboring hard, and in fact are brewing innovative strategies. That is where the fun is at!

My 'report card' before I went for a vacation showed an upward trend. After I got zero, my clicks shot up to the 900s again. As I post this, I am still 314 clicks short of making it back to the 1000s level. I have 7 hours to wait for that...

Starting all over again...

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 05:45:00 +0000

Look what a two day vacation did to me...

None of my referrals' clicks yesterday were credited to me. Rightly so, because I have not clicked even a single ad while at a cheapo hotelo for two days. :) Nobody to blame except me. I could have sneaked out and looked for an internet cafe where I could plug my laptop and do what I regularly do... Oh well... water under the bridge...

To those I have shared my strategy with, I hope that my strategy would work for you. I don't think it's luck that led to a steadily climbing total referral click trend. The trend was steady for a week so I suppose the strategy really works. Now that I'm back at zero, I have another chance of validating my conclusions. To all of you, you owe me your feedback. ;) Remember: you now have your own little secret to keep...

What's my road ahead?

I'm seriously thinking of resuming my regular routine of renting batches of 100 referrals every week. I have stopped for three weeks because I got busy 'resuscitating' my ref clicks. Now that I have a good strategy of keeping my average clicks at a comfortable and earning level, I see a good time of increasing my referrals until I reach the quota of 2000. That's 14 batches down the road. 14 long weeks of trying to outpace other agile renters out there. harharhar... I'm sure I know how to increase my chances of successfully getting batches of 100. I just have to be fast! By the middle of March 2009, I should have topped off at 2000 rented refs... Wish me all the best, will you?

2000 refs at 1.8 average clicks per day is a daily gross of $36.00. At 1.5 average clicks, that's still a decent gross of $30/day. $210/week is not bad. $252 is better.

Now, I wonder if there's another long vacation up ahead...

NeoBux: PTC for Smart Clickers

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 05:24:00 +0000

I have scoured the PTC Web long enough to assert that NeoBux has a smart business plan created by a smart team behind a smart Admin. Therefore, to earn at NeoBux, clickers need to be smart! Grumblers and whiners only work against themselves at NeoBux.

My family is going to spend a long weekend out of town and I am leaving you with my report card. To the left is the snapshot of my charts updated to date.

You can see from my chart that most of my immediate goals are met. The strategy is unbelievably simple. If you would like to know it, a simple comment with a dummy email address (that you can access, of course) is all you need. I do not want to spam!

I waited four days for this...

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Wed, 26 Nov 2008 13:51:00 +0000

I posted "Don't tell the admin..." 4 days ago and I got overwhelming responses. :) It was a heartwarming experience reading all your email responses to that article. Thanks!

Feeling some sense of "moral obligation", I decided to test my strategy further and you can see the result in the graph to the left. As you can see, it went a few clicks down after the peak four days ago but the good thing is my total clicks stay at the 900's! With 600 referrals, that is an average of at least 1.5 clicks / referral. My simple math tells me that I am beyond the 1.38 border to start earning! Good enough! But I am not stopping...

I mentioned these in my preceding article:

Here are the indicators that I am aiming to achieve:

1. Total Clicks going up
2. Recycle value going down
3. Autopay expense going up
4. One month payments going in a straight horizontal line
5. Transfers to rental balance going in a straight horizontal line

I am happy to report that:
1. The total clicks has gone up and micro-oscillates at the 900+ level
2. Recycle value has gone down
3. Autopay expenses had gone up
4. Transfers to rental balance sort of micro-oscillates within the 6-12 range

I do not think that the one month payments would ever flatten out. Referral clicks are simply weird! Imagine a 5.7 clicker suddenly going silent for at least 4 days and never come back to life. tsk tsk... I think NeoBuxers would open up a thread of actual referral deaths in the forums to come up with a logical explanation for the erratic clicking behavior. :)

[Just a note on #2 in my report above: The spike yesterday was when I clicked the wrong option at the dropdown list where you are asked to choose whether to recycle, renew, ... I was just sooo sleepy that I was more like awake on second wind. I was suppose to click Renew for 30 days but I missed the option and instead of renewing I recycled! My bad.]

Good results and consistent. So, I am going to continue on with the strategy with a few new tweaks in the next few days. haha I am still not hitting the 1000's again so I am experimenting some more to hopefully hit the mark. I know I am almost there. I can actually smell 1000's sweet smell. haummmmm....

Those of you who are new to my blog, simply follow the shortcuts to previous articles that I have written so you would know what I am talking about.

Expect another follow-up articles on this. I am sure you would be interested. If you are struggling with maintaining your clicks or pulling it up, you may try my strategy. Just post a comment with your temporary email address so I can direct my email there with my strategy. I do not spam. I eat it for breakfast! :) hmmm yummy

I think the strategy works! I waited 2 days before posting this to confirm my initial findings. Total clicks is going up. I am 13 clicks short of breaching the 1000 milestone. The previous high mark for the past 7 days is at 980. Yesterday 987 clicks were registered. Very nice!

Looking at the Recycle and Autopay values: despite the increase in clicks, recycling expense is going down. That's what I want! What's even better is seeing the autopay expenses going up!

Here are the indicators that I am aiming to achieve:

1. Total Clicks going up
2. Recycle value going down
3. Autopay expense going up
4. One month payments going in a straight horizontal line
5. Transfers to rental balance going in a straight horizontal line

What's the secret?

I just came from a two day "vacation" in Anilao, Batangas and this statistics show how things would be like if you take time off.

The fifth node from the right for the "Rented referral clicks..." chart is where I left off. In just two days of absence the graph showed a steady decline. It only reversed direction when I arrived 06:17 EST yesterday and started my regular rounds of recycling. The fact of life at NeoBux is just that if you don't recycle, expect a decline in rented referral clicks.

I spent $10 yesterday recycling and I spent another $7 today. The effect of these investments is immediate: a spike of rented referral clicks. Yesterday, the number of clicks went up. Today, at 09:26 EST, the total rented referral clicks is already 472. 15 hours more to go! I have a strong feeling that I'd finally breach the 1000 limit again today...

If you have been following my blog, you may be able to conclude that my recent recycling rampage is reaping its returns. The slump has been arrested and the trend is in a steep ascent!

What's even nicer about this is that my recycling expense trend is going down, though not linearly. I spent almost $6 today recycling another batch of undesirables. Tomorrow, I'm expecting to recycle another 20-30. That's an expected expense of $2.40. Not bad. I'm even willing to spend around $4-5 if necessary. When I had 500 rented refs, I hit 1000+ clicks. Now with 600, I only hit 1000+ once! Bad. My goal therefore is to go on recycling until I have brought the total clicks up to at least 1100+ minimum per day. I think that goal is doable.

I'm going to continue observing my referral clicks. That goes on to say that I'm going to continue doing exactly what brought the referral clicks up.

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Sun, 16 Nov 2008 09:04:00 +0000

Yes, it's going up. And, yes, I'm not sure if it stays that way.

Almost 35 dollars after, the trend of referral clicks has continued to go up. Understandbly so because I have gotten rid of the sleeping or dead referrals. Today I have again spent a couple of dollars more and I am going to do it that way until I have finally brought my total clicks up and stabilized at 1000+ per day. It's doable and I'm going to do it.

My autoclick expenses is starting to go up as well which is a very healthy sign for me. As I have said in a previous post, I don't mind paying premium amounts in autopay. High autopay expenses imply a very likely increase in revenues.

To the left is an image of my autopay expenses. Looking closely, we can see that the trend is increasing. My goal is to bring this expense back up to at least $3 per day.

The last node in the rented referral clicks chart to the left is for all clicks today. It's 3:05EST and there's still 9 hours to go before this day passes by. 9 hours to go and 100+ short of surpassing my total ref clicks yesterday. Yes, clicks are going up again. The second to the last node is for total clicks yesterday.

The strategy works!

For the past 5 days, I have been in a recycling rampage. Referrals are just behaving strangely and there seems to be no pattern. What I noticed though is that those who did not click for at least 3 days don't click anymore! Why is that? Even those with averages of more than 5 suddenly became 'dead'? hmmm... Strange.

Check out the chart of my recyling expenses. It goes ting... ting... TUNG... Teng... Ting.. These following days there will be minimal recycling. I need to save up money for renewal of my rented referrals.

There's something that I would like to see...

What I would like to see is a spike in my autopay expenses. I do not mind paying $5, $10, ... for autopay expenses! The higher this expense is, the better my clicks should look. My graph shows only around $1 today. Autopay cost for my account is $0.0065.

Going Up?

Going up?

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Fri, 14 Nov 2008 07:34:00 +0000

This is the graph of my rented referral clicks as of oo:oo EST. Total clicks is still a few dozen less than the the previous 2 days but at least it flattened out somehow. I spent something like $14 for the bailout and I'm crossing my fingers that the trend will go up as of today and will oscillate above 1000 daily henceforth. An average click of 1.8/referral shouldn't be too bad. The goal is still an average of 2.0 or better per day.

What am I looking at now?

These are the expense items I'm trying to figure out how to manage properly:
1. Autopay Expense: $0.0065/referral
2. Rental/Renewal Expense: $0.22/mo/referral
3. Recycling Expense: $0.08/referral

Given:
1. Rented Referrals: 600

Assumptions:
1. % clicking referrals per day: 90%
2. % recyclable per day: 5%
3. No. of clicks per clicking referral per day: 2

Computations [based on the given and the assumptions]:
Income: 600 * 0.90 * 2 * $0.01 = $10.80

Expense:
Autopay: 600 * 0.90 * $0.0065 = $3.51
Renewal: 600 * 0.10 * $0.22 = $13.22
Recycle: 600 * 0.05 * $0.08 = $2.4

Scenario:
Income: $10.80
less Autopay: $3.51
Net after Autopay: $7.29

less Recycle: $2.4
Net after AutoPay and Recycle: $4.89

$4.89 is not enough for the expected renewal expense. So renewal would be every 3 days! This means that I'd be losing rented referrals? Likely.

I still have $179 worth of investments to recover and I don't want to think anymore. It becomes perplexing managing these small amounts, and especially with knowing the very puzzling clicking behavior of the rented referrals. Just examine the referral behavior in the image below.

Against all sanity, I have recycled this referral. Referrals who are inactive for 4 days very seldomly come back to life. Despite the $5.889 clicking average, I consider this referral dead. If he comes back to life in the arms of another renter, I have no qualms about it. I'm sure there are thousands of his kind who would eventually find their way to me.

But this I don't understand: How come this referral suddenly becomes inactive after consistently hitting at least 9 ads per day in succession for a week??? I have other questions but I'd rather keep them to myself.

It's Saturday! Time for tennis...

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 13:16:00 +0000

For some unknown reasons, almost a quarter of my rented referrals stopped clicking more than 4 days ago. I can possibly reason for those with averages between 1.5-2 clicks per day. But, for those with averages of more than 2.5 up to about 4.7...?

It's expensive, recycling. However, with a trend like what's being shown in the first graph to the left there is no logical move but to recycle. Today, I have spent a little over $10 on recycling. Yesterday, I spent almost $2. The day before yesterday I spent a few cents more. Because I now only have enough for autopay expenses in my rental balance, this day shall pass without any more rounds of recycling...

Now, I wonder what kind of replacement refs will I be getting. I got a "No referrals are available at this time" message when I tried to rent my next pack of 100 at 12nn today. If that's the case, how come I was able to successfully recycle the 120+ referrals today? Did I get the same referrals I dumped? That's a funnily irritating idea. But if I got the same refs and they click again, then the $10+ I spent for them is worth resurrecting them back to life... I don't mind.

With these things in hindsight, I'm changing my strategy regarding referral management. I'm not stating it yet so I can test first if it works or not.

2nd Payment from NeoBux

Recent clicks of my rented referrals is not good. I wonder what happened. Is there a party somewhere that went on for 5 straight days?

Anyway, here's what's left of my money after I:
1. recycled around 40+ referrals,
2. transferred $30 into my rental balance,
3. paid all autopay expenses

I'll be observing my clicks as doggedly as I have been doing these past 2 days. There are quite a number of them under 1.5 average clicks per day and I'd like to get rid of them as soon they reached my threshold value.

All the best to NeoBux!

Necessary Measure

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 05:56:00 +0000

My rented referrals' average clicks has gone down significantly in the past 3 days. The last one being lower than the lowest registered total clicks for my 500 referrals. This situation calls for recycling. Mass recycling.

I combed through my first 100 referrals looking for candidates. I must admit that the exercise was mostly guesswork! I'm just a little weary today so I just went through the motion and clicked 23 likely deadweights.

This is my first ever more-than-a-dollar recycle! 23*$0.08= $1.84 requires 184 clicks to recover. They should click 3 ads each for 3 days for me to earn.

My net daily earnings fell from around $9-10 to around $7-8 now. The trend's still falling as of yesterday and I'd know in 5hrs and 2mins if it levels off. The signs are getting better when I checked 2 hours ago. *crossing fingers*

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 23:53:00 +0000

I just received my 2nd payment from MegaLido. Please see the image below. I have two other active accounts there. In a few days from now one of those will mature, and days after that another one will mature, and days after that another one will mature, and days after that another one will mature, ... It will proceed like that until I can't take it anymore. :)

The process is simple: Invest a little, say $12. Wait a little, 12 days. Autosurf a little , say 5 minutes. Browse a little, say 1 minute to request your payment. Then... SMILE A LOT! You just earned $5.28 interest on your $12. hehe

Clicks Down, Hope Up

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 19:46:00 +0000

My referral clicks are going down since 3 days ago. Yesterday's total clicks was only 892. With 600 referrals, that's quite low. I had 1024 clicks with 500 referrals. I'm tempted to recycle, but after seeing the summary of my rented referrals performance I decided to just hold back. Recycling is just too expensive. I'll give this a day or two. If trend's still going down at the 3rd day from now, I'll recycle.

Now wait, 3rd day from now is rental day. I'd be getting my next pack of 100 making my total rented refs increase to 700! A hundred referrals implies a projected increase of $1.87 on my net daily earnings so maybe I'll just hold back on recycling. You may not understand what's behind this. I'm more like moving by gut feel now. I don't understand why the trend is going down when other PTCs are either closing down or closed.

To my left is the projected weekly earnings for both the Standard Member and the Golden Member. Columns for Week and Number of Referrals are included for quick reference. My pattern of earnings actually fits these figures! Believe it or not.

This week I'm supposed to have a total net income of $75.6. I sneaked to my NeoBux summary and computed my gross earnings based on my accumulated clicks since 11/04. So far, I earned $50.70. My total autopay expenses is $10.881. My net earnings therefore for the period 11/04-11/08 is $39.819. I still have 3 more days to go. If I'll have an average of $9/day, I'd still be $8.781 short of my projected income which is $75.6.

It's just sad to see clicks from rented refs going down... However, click patterns in the past also show similar fluctuations before picking up so I'd just keep my hopes up. In this business, hope's the only thing that you should not lose.

Two rental weeks from now, I'd be earning at least $100/week. In the PTC circle, a lot of sites have closed down, dubious sites, so subscribers there if still not with NeoBux would definitely find their way in. That would be a glorious day for NeoBux. And, a happy day for us subscribers. Clicks will shoot up and so shall the earnings. I'm very excited for that day to come.

Looking soundyears ahead, I just wonder what would it be like earning $252/week... What do you think? Or, would you like to experience it yourself? Try these steps:
1. CLICK HERE to Register to NeoBux [Click on the blue-colored links]
2. CLICK HERE to Register to AlertPay [Click on the blue-colored links]
3. Click daily your 4 ads
4. Read my blog articles for previous tips and upcoming sparks of genius

Just do those 4 steps. You won't regret it. Me? Been there, done it.

Visuals: NeoBux Standard vs. Golden Membership...

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 08:20:00 +0000

Humans learn faster visually.

This first line chart shows the trend for the average number of clicks for standard and golden members. The offset between the two graphs is 2.5. That figure alone shows you the huge disparity of the number of clicks between the two types of memberships required to break even.

Life is definitely trickier for standards than goldens. Standards are given 4 ads per day at least up to a maxium of around 6. So, as you increase the number of referrals, the more it becomes harder (if not impossible!) for you to break even (or earn).

The slope for the standards is steeper than the goldens, which means that life gets harder as you increase the number of referrals compared to the goldens. Goldens have a pretty steady slope. Goldens have a pretty consistent situation.

This chart shows the trend of daily income projections for the standards and the goldens. You can immediately see from the chart that never has the standards overtaken the earning potential of goldens. Even from the start!

Goldens have an almost 45-degree slope which shows an almost direct relationship between the number of referrals and the projected daily income. Slope for the standards is quite low. The maximum projected daily earning being around $17 (for one with 2000 referrals). A golden with between 900 and 1000 referrals can already achieve that!

What I have essayed here is just a narrative of obvious observable characteristics. I'm sure that you'd have more intelligent interpretations of this charts. If you wish, you can post them here as comments, or you can simply keep them to yourself.

When Enough Is Not...

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 21:43:00 +0000

Our monthly earnings [pay check + others] is never enough. If you say yours is, then you should look at your ancestry. Perhaps you come from another planet? :)

First and major cash outflow is to the NEEDS, i.e., power bill, water bill, phone bill, credit card bill, school bill, buffalo bill, and so forth and so on... These bills are certain to knock on your door each and every month. Some of us try to limit use of resources to cut expenses on bills. Still what remains after the cutting are still bills, just probably smaller.

If NEEDS is a major cash outflow, then meet its commander-in-chief... ...aten-hunth!...: WANTS. The rest of your money goes here. The more you earn, the more you spend. Both kinds of expenses grow but not proportionally. There seems to be logarithmic relationship beteween their growths with the WANTS enjoying a bigger growth factor.

So how does the man in the picture cut himself free from the deadweight and let money slip his pockets back in? Quick answer: Increase PASSIVE INCOME!

Face it! Your pay checks make good supporting documents for multi-million loans [multi-thousand in my case] but they are just not enough. We need to find ways and means to earn extra! Read that last sentence as: "We need to find ways and means to let our money work for us!" We have very limited energy. But our money has unlimited. If NEEDS is the major, WANTS the commander-in-chief, then let them meet your lieutenants: YOUR MONEY. Your money, moneys, moneyss, moneysss, ..., moneysssssssssssssssssssssssssss regardless of how many eses wordifically represents your wealth, they are your indefatigable lieutenants lining in ranks ready to jump for duty for you. Don't let them cramp their legs waiting. Make them work!

Here's HOW?
1. Register in NeoBux [CLICK HERE] and MegaLido [CLICK HERE] [please click the links]
2. Register in AlertPay [CLICK HERE] and PayPal [CLICK HERE] [please click the links]
3. Do whatever those in #2 requires for your money to earn
4. Venture for other opportunities to earn online
5. Read this blog when there's a new article posted

If you do these 5 simple things, you'd be commenting here in a month expressing your thanks for doing so. I really believe that.

Passing the Buck...

noreply@blogger.com (roslen) — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 11:17:00 +0000

I view cash flow in NeoBux business as an interplay among 4 external entities: NeoBux, AlertPay, PayPal, and BPI (Bank of the Philippine Islands).

In the image you see to the left are the entities I mentioned above represented as business processes (independent of each other) and connected via appropriately labeled flow lines.

Flow Line #1:
I earn from my referrals every day. As of this time, I'm already earning an average of at least $9.50/day with 600 referrals. [Read this article for the details.] There are days this week that I reach almost $10/day. These earnings, you know, accumulate into my NeoBux main balance.

Flow Line #2:
I enabled autopay for two reasons: 1. simplify my referral management, and 2. save on rental expenses. Autopay needs money to run. It debits from the rental balance so I need to make sure that my rental balance always have enough funds to cover for at least a day of operation. This is where money has to move from the main balance to the rental balance. When I turned Golden, my highest autopay expense so far was $2.3985 last November 5. That's for 600 referrals. The maximum autopay amount for 600 referrals is: 600 * $0.0065 = $3.9.

Flow Line #3:
You can do cashouts in NeoBux every 4 days. hmmmm.... yummy topic. You are eligible for your first cashout once you reach $2. The next would be when you reach $3. Then $4. Guess the extremely difficult pattern, and all the way to $10. In between cashouts is a mandatory interval of 4 days.

In my case I do periodic cashouts to AlertPay because there are no charges. PayPal charges a minimum amount. Minium amounts are not money I'm willing to spend at this time of my business because in fact every cent that's credited to my account is already cause for celebration for me. Cashouts to AlertPay is instant so that by itself is nice. Instant=Nice.

Note that there is no flow line from AlertPay to my BPI account. You'd see later.

Flow Line #4:
No investment = No business. You wouldn't be reading this article if you don't agree with that. If you're in NeoBux and you haven't spent a cent, then you're just wasting a golden opportunity to earn. Everyone needs to invest to capitalize on favorable odds to earn. If you don't agree, go ahead and live with your pay check. [which may be F-A-T unlike mine] hehe :)

I do controlled investments in NeoBux. Please don't make me elaborate now. That could be another article in this blog. :) All earnings I accumulate I carefully allocate back to NeoBux to further maximize my overall earnings. An example of this is my practice of renting 100 referrals each and every time. Note that you need to do your math to know what to expect (income and expense) given a certain number of rented referrals.

How about jackpots? "Luck" is a factor in jackpots and that's something I'm not willing to spend on. Anything I cannot "control" I don't engage in.

Flow Line #5:
This is the exciting part. Anything in excess of my budget allocations for expenses I channel to PayPal. Please note that there is no flow line from PayPal back to NeoBux. My rule is: whatever comes out of NeoBux and goes to PayPal will never go back [directly] to NeoBux. It can either go to other online investment opportunities... or... ***drum roll please***... to my BPI account. :) Please don't ask for the "[directly]" in the preceding sentence. :) Another potential blog topic.

I have chosen PayPal as the feeder payment processor to my bank account (BPI) because:
1. it's been there for years and therefore should be more mature.
2. it's cheaper
3. it's faster
4. its name sounds better than AlertPay :)

PayPal does not charge cashouts to bank accounts for any amount above P7000. Amounts below that will be charged P50 by PayPal. On top of that, BPI charges P250[? - verify] for cashouts from PayPal to them. Be it P250 or P300 fee for a cashout does not matter to me if what I'm getting are multiples of P100 higher than P7000. *ehem*... a glass of water please... :)

Flow Line #6:
Is there still a need to discuss this? :)

Whatever amount that goes to my BPI account would be spent for:
01. Paying MERALCO bills
02. Paying GLOBE HANDYPHONE bills
03. Paying PLDT bills (phone and DSL)
04. Paying LWD (Laguna Water District) bills
05. Paying HSBC Visa Bills
06. Paying HSBC Mastercard Bills
07. Paying for my College Country Club montly club bills (tennis)
08. Paying for my Makiling Tennis Club bills
09. Buying cans of tennis balls
10. Buying Forten Kevlar/Nylon hybrid strings
11. Buying gasoline for my vehicles
12. Dating my one-and-only wife... eeyaahooo...

Looks like the 12 days of Christmas, ha?

The other bills? House? Helpers? Food? The BIG ONES? My wife takes care of them. She has the fatter pay check. HAHA
