It's been awhile, actually too long since I have been around. Sometimes life committments sorta take priority. The last few years have kinda been uphill, and the last few months - well, how can I say this >> very trying and tireing.

I have plenty of things to update around the place to get myself back on track. Loseing my access has been a problem, but I am determined to get back on top of things.

Over the coming days I should be on a roll.

Hope to see you around.

This looks like something to take some notice of. Yes we all like the quick daily payments, but have a closer look at this one. Three plans, but paid on expiry. Arbitage Trading and admin says he needs the time to exchange dollars to moneybookers to trade. Very well presented site, not just a throw together, so thought I would put my money where my mouth is. lol

Another thing that is a definite plus. Accepts AlertPay and SolidTrustPay (verified) also accepts LibertyReserve for those that prefer that.

Naturally, there are no guarantees, but definitely a better option in the market currently. Happy money making.

13/03/2011 Lazy Sunday

2011-03-13T16:06:00.002-05:00

It's been a long long time since I had a lazy Sunday. Okay, had better rephrase that! I have plenty of things to do, but can't get outside to do them, due to wet weather. The grass needs mowing, car needs a clean out. Notice I said grass? Well maybe after a few mows it will return to lawn. lol My gardens are overgrown with weeds, so demoralizing when I look out the back window. Hopefully during the week it will get dry enough to mow when I get home in the evenings. Our days are getting shorter now that we are heading towards winter. Not looking forward to the cold, but in the meantime enjoying the "not so hot" weather.

What am I doing moneymaking? Not much currently actually. However I did join Carbon-Profits and am enjoying a slickly run site. Paid approximately the same time each day after request, which to me indicates the admin is very organized. I don't know know who the admin is, but to date has been running the site quite well.

12/03/2011 Life Lesson

2011-03-12T06:50:00.000-06:00

All the world disasters these days are of great concern to many. With our floods and cyclones here in Australia, the Christchurch Earthquake in New Zealand and now Japan with a huge earthquake and devastating tsunami. It's very trying times for us all from all corners of the globe. Firstly my thoughts and prayers go out to all whom have been affected by loss of family, friends and work colleagues. They will live on in our hearts and will always be near. It's just that we can never share any moments together here on this earth anymore. It's heart-wrenching, sad, but life goes on even though you are internally screaming for the world to stop.
The hard reality is that sometimes it takes events and experiences like these to break down some of our barriers and realize what we should be doing on this earth. Living life by taking the time to smell the roses. Appreciate what we have, before it's too late.

2011-02-23T14:20:00.001-06:00

Time is a weird thing. Some have plenty of time to do nothing, others have no time to do plenty. Then you have the problem of trying to make time. Why do we all evolve around time? Time management is where I am currently at. Making sure that my hours are used in a way I can get the best out of them. Hmmm pretty deep or confusing huh.

Today i kicked started my day with some humor. Got me in a great frame of mind. Thought I would share this as it is a classic.

09/02/2011 Dance party is over

2011-02-09T15:40:00.000-06:00

Woke this morning to an email from Ivan the Admin of SynergyMoney. Yeh, kinda had a feeling that it wouldn't be good news. But of course was hopeing it would be something cheerful. Anyway this is the update.

Important update
Dear all,

This is an important update so please take the time to read it carefully. Given the recent circumstances in respect to the inflow of funds coming in to the Synergy Money payment accounts we have to implement some immediate actions. Let me first say that I will work out a solution that serves best the interest of the members of Synergy Money.

**What lead to this situation**
The big ROI (considering the 25% return of the serial plan) and the slow growth during our 3th month. We raised bigger deposits during our 3th month from our old members who were increasing their accounts regularly but the new members joining were more reluctant to deposit new money in the program. This is simply a natural cause and it is better to take actions before the imminent end.

**What is next**
First step will be to disable all deposits and cashouts from the program. Also the deposits that were made this week will be refunded in full. Right now I have a list of all the members and how much they have made or did not make from the program. I will zero out the accounts which gained profit. You can see if you are in profit or not by the ROI calculation on the home page of your back office (Wallet funding – Wallet cashouts). The accounts which are still owed will be refunded to the point of breaking even their investment amount. In the case of potential opportunity to generate profit on the top of your principal amount, I will definitely take it under consideration and pay deserved bonuses to those members. The amount will depend on the success rate and how the process of those opportunities has performed.

**A matter of consideration**
The whole process might take some time. That is why I am going to refund specific amounts on biweekly terms. The first refund round will start on 23th of February. However, investors with losses under $10 will be refunded faster. Each refund week I will be crediting your account with the appropriate interest on the difference amount (Wallet funding – Wallet cahsout) and it will be announced to you via email and published on our News section. I cannot give you an estimate or a number of how much that would be. Then, you will be able to request a withdrawal to your payment processor. The minimum to withdraw will be $1. Your accounts will be reflected with the difference amount of your invested money and your withdrawals.
I will be keeping you updated on regular bases. I am not going anywhere and the site will stay online for as long as it takes.

Ivan

My opinion? Well all seemed to rockin' along nicely. Unable from my end to tell how many members there actually were and or what they were doing, I was under the impression that we were slowly growing. But as per the explaination in the above email and the fact that in reality it is only the owner/admin that sees the whole picture and decisions are made from them, well it turns out reasonably well. Ivan didn't run away and hopefully he will hold true to the claims he has made. As always, anything is a risk and depends how you play it. I had fun, risked a fair amount of money to make a few bucks. That's how the cookie crumbles.

26/01/2011 The program with a twist

2011-01-26T15:11:00.000-06:00

It's been awhile, but I'm back now and looking forward yet again. I have been meaning to update my journey so far with SynergyMoney, which is absolutely awesome.If you haven't had a close look yet, you should. The plans are quite workable, and to date the admin, Ivan (from the Netherlands) has been handling the site almost perfectly. Can't say perfect as there is always room for improvement, which has been ongoing, another plus really. It's all about teamwork and a good intentioned admin. Seems all the ducks are in a row, and also it's fun in the MMG thread.

I joined this one back on 11 November, and this link shows what I thought about it then. See here. Still enjoying the program and of course the payments.
The plan that I prefer is the one with a twist. Meaning every 15 days you get 25% of your upgrade back. Yes you can withdraw it, but remember your earning decreases to 2% of you current upgrade level. (the reduced amount) Bit confusing? Check out the FAQ and the website, it is described in clear terms. For me, I am happy being a member of SynergyMoney Timely payments and good interaction with the admin.

20/01/2011 What a start to the year!

2011-01-20T16:44:00.001-06:00

Personally it hasn't been a great start to the year, but it could have been a lot worse. Having to contend with floods from January 1, not being able to access vital tri-weekly treatment for my son because of road closures then to have major flooding where we sent him for the interim. It's been just a tad stressful. To top it off, he became critically ill with an unknown infection and has been hospitalized ever since, which was a week ago now. Thankfully things have calmed down however he requires more surgery to regain a semi permanent access point for his treatment and that's yet to come. But soon.

Compared to others here we are lucky, as we will have a roof over our head when we eventually are able to return home. Like many others I too feel that here in Queensland we have not seen the last of the floods and storms given that we still have months of cyclone season and the weather charts keep showing unusual activity out there in the Coral Sea where most of our threats are formed. Not dwelling on that, but looking just to each day. Where I am staying here in Brisbane I daily am running to people whom have been victims of the floods also. Most seem to have resigned themselves to the fact they are lucky to have their family and not too upset about possessions they have lost. I have faith that if we all band together as Aussies that together we can get on with living. After all, that IS what life is all about.

31/12/2010 - Happy New Year 2011 - a whole new decade!

2010-12-31T18:58:00.000-06:00

28/12/2010 - 2010 - the year that was

2010-12-28T12:13:00.000-06:00

Here we are at the end of yet another year. As usual we had the highs and lows which is part of this industry. Seeing we had supposedly the worst year, all the doom and gloom about being in crisis mode. But looking through where I ventured during 2010, yeah I lost in a few, but at the end of the day I am in front. As I always say, it's a gamble but I prefer to hedge my bets and hopefully chose better places to earn and play.

It may seem that I don't post much here, which probably I don't. I prefer quality as to quantity, but since July I have had some major offline issues to handle. It's on going, and life has a strange way of throwing things at you and quite frankly, one just has to do the best they can with what they have. I juggle between putting a roof over our head, working full time and being chief transporter, carer and organizer for my son and my online moneymaking. It's a handful at the best of times, but even though I seemingly aren't around. I am :) Forever reading, looking or digging for something worth a shot, and here in the shed is where I post my personal experiences with them.

What do I think is install for 2011? I have this feeling that we are going to see some great programs, not necessarily talking about huge programs, remember the bigger they are, the harder they fall. A new year, new innovations, ideas. Can't wait to see the changes. We have to change with the industry, many still keep to same old thoughts, but horizons need to be lifted as technology moves forward, so must we. The days of 12DP are finished. Really that was a once of, and the programs akin to StudioTraffic, DadnDaves and I could go on, but those days are over. Personally I prefer surfs, but hyip seem to be more the go these days. We went through the profitsharing phrase. Just a thought, wouldn't it be great to somehow have a mix within the one program. Script writers are already probably working on it.

Well I have babbled on enough here. I'm looking forward to a very productive 2011. As always, remember nothing lasts forever and gamble responsibly. Only spend what you are prepared to risk, once it's spent it's gone, anything back is a bonus, and that's what we play for. Seed plus profit.

Hope to see ya round :)

25/12/2010 Merry Christmas to all - Aussie time yay!!

2010-12-24T08:03:00.000-06:00

12/12/2010 Got some spare LR pocket change?

2010-12-12T14:56:00.002-06:00

LibertyTopSpot the game that won't cost you an arm and a leg to chance your luck. This site kicked off in late 2008 when doublers, game sites and remember those heads and tail sites, well they were very popular. This site still remains fully operational.

I recently contacted the Admin, who gave me a bit of history about his site. What attracted him to running this was that it is fully automotive, therefore requiring not much work on his behalf. This is what he said:

I can recall one player getting over $40.00 for a $1.00 spend but not much players out there now.
I can add other tables like a $5.00 or $10.00 or less $3.00 ect where the winnings can add up to a nice little sum but if i cant get guys to play with $0.25 not likely to get them to part with $5.00 lol.

I use it like you said to advertise my site's mainly. Some months i dont even cover the hosting
but its the enjoyment i like and giving others a chance to win for little outlay.

Not sure why more users dont use a referral link as its a free 10% as no game spend required.

It's easy to play, just chose the table level you wish to spend to, currently there are four. .25c, .50c, .75c and $1. Your LR batch number must end with the next number above the person on the topline to put you on the top. Once there everyone spending to try and get to the top line well you get 80% of their spend if they miss out. It's a great little game, fun and also for those who wish to promote, you can earn some referral commissions along the way. Did I mention payments are instant? Well they are :)

The LibertyTopSpot banner would have to easily be the oldest banner here in the Shed, I recently upgraded the new coloured banner. What are you waiting for. Gotta be in it to win it right? There is also a thread in MMG, and go check it out as the admin is offering some freebies, until they run out of course.

11/12/2010 Why didn't the bad news surprise me

2010-12-11T05:27:00.001-06:00

Last month I had contact of an internet associate and he said "takes you back to the ol days doesn't it with all these surfs popping up". My response was "if they had appeared a month earlier I would have been tempted". Having been through the "dreaded December" scenario many times before, with the way the industry is these days, well you really should ask yourself the question. "Why would an admin open up a site now?" There are some logically answers, but plenty of illogical ones to.

The big kickoff sites get plenty of attention and players play how they deem fit. The bigger investors aren't in the public eye, until the wheels fall off and get burned then some, only some come to the forum and complain how they lost $??K. From where I sit, they sure had plenty to gain had they pulled it off, but would we ever hear about that? More than likely not. [If you don't know the sites I am talking about specifically, than consider yourself lucky as you weren't a member, neither was I, but I read plenty]

Anyhow, I am not hear to condone or condemn, just to remind potential players that there is a risk. Chose safer bets if you can, gamble responsibly and IF things go south before your in profit, well it won't hurt so much. Also remember, nothing and I mean absolutely nothing lasts forever.

30/11/2010 Great potential but no support

2010-11-30T14:43:00.001-06:00

I have just reluctantly removed two sites from paying status. GWDC and Funds-O-Matic. Yes reluctantly, as both these sites had potential, IMO. But as a one way street it will never work.

GWDC (Global Wealth Distribution Centre) did just that. Distributed until there was no more to give. No recent upgrades as members were just happy to bleed the accounts dry.

Funds-O-Matic had the new AlertPay rules to abide by, so plans changed. We didn't get to run the cycles that were initally promised, however still would have been a nice return with an Admin that can be trusted.

I have been strapped for time lately with offline issues, but still about doing my looking and digging :) Will be posting again tomorrow with an update on SynergyMoney

11/11/2010 - Synergy Money -Great plans- take a peek

2010-11-11T07:01:00.000-06:00

Brand new program SynergyMoney. Interesting as this has been whispered about for weeks now. Finally unleashed today. Okies it's a HYIP - no surfing :) Payment Processors: AlertPay, SolidTrustPay, PerfectMoney and LibertyReserve. Check this out!! Read carefully.

All term plans have a 90 day expiration period. After the 90 days, you will receive the full amount of your principal investment. All interest earnings are accumulated daily, 7 days a week, and they can be withdrawn at any time. Interest is calculated according to the size of your investment.

The serial plan pays out your principal investment in 4 equal installments (parts) during a 60 day period. This means that you receive 25% of your principal on the 15th, 30th, 45th and 60th day of your deposit duration. The interest rate is 2% and it applies to your current deposit level, which changes every 15 days. This means that with time your earnings would decrease as the current level of your deposit decreases.

I decided to give SynergyMoney a go. Will keep ya updated on how it goes. Remember if you decided to venture, gamble responsibly as always.

31/10/2010 Happy Halloween to all who celebrate

2010-10-31T15:15:00.000-05:00

Halloween time!! Enjoy your trick or treating where ever you are in the world.

30/10/2010 StarWarsSurf - back starting afresh - LR only

2010-10-30T10:49:00.000-05:00

I know that many members used AP here and reality is that AP and credit cards plus the new AP rules for HYIPs is strangling the use of AP by this industry. Now believe what you may regarding StarWarsSurf Admin, but put yourself in his shoes. Now we all know this is a risky business, and should be played as such, but using credit card for funding, plus spending more than you can afford to lose. lol Sorry for laughing, but that phrase always gets me. Who can afford to lose money? Should say keep within your means or something along those lines. Okies I think you get the picture. Only use what you are prepared to lose. Like going to a Casino, get your chips and play. Sometimes you can cash out and be a winner, other times you lose. It's the nature of the game.
Back to StarWarsSurf, hmm it's the middle of the night for me. Slap no excuse!! I really wanted to voice my opinion on why I have decided to continue with StarWarsSurf. I upgraded earlier this evening and got paid instantly, with LR of course. My account has been zeroed like everyone else, and SWS is starting afresh. I am hopeful that other members will see that the Admin is running a reasonable outfit. He hasn't taken off with the AP, it's frozen in AP's coffers. They have done this many times before to many programs, and to date I know of a few that the funds after a year or so, still have not been released! What is an admin to do?
Anyway, I am in for the ride with LR only StarWarsSurf and I certainly won't be screaming if it doesn't work out, as it needs to be a team effort. If we all stood back and watched, waiting, well nothing would happen. So I took the plunge and hope that others will too. Will be updating here in the payments department :)

25/10/2010 GWDC online update!!

2010-10-25T06:20:00.003-05:00

For those who have been trying to get to the site GWDCONLINE you are aware there has been a server change, well it didn't last long. Just received this email from GWDC support.

GWDC Online New Server Testing
Aussie Lady ,

I understand some frustrations, I to am feeling it with you. I expected Staminus network to be best able to suit our needs. However for what ever reasons they felt that after only 5 hours on their network that they could not handle additional sites such as our.

I am testing the new KoDDos server. All the information is here.

Will mail soon with more information.

Albert,
Global Wealth Distribution Center

So let's give Albert sometime and let him sort things out. Better to do it now than later. Stay tuned!!

Sites up and running!! yahoooooooo

23/10/2010 Roundup Update!! Hope your tuned in

2010-10-23T20:07:00.001-05:00

Any of you that read here will notice that I don't join every new program that appears. To reinterate what I do and why is that I look for quality of sites. Okies yeah I might have missed some, but hey no one has the perfect formula in this business. Now where are we? Current sites, only three. But of course that can change rapidly depending on what happens.

Funds-O-Matic Loving this site, no drama just nice timely weekly payments after request.

GWDCONLINE Brand new!! But awesome script and this admin knows what he is doing. Joining now is a good option, I have received my first cashout from daily earnings. But note: no payments on Sundays and Public Holidays. 3% a day for 40 days, and can use account balance to purchase as well. Remember always take some back each time but building it a great option as well. Do the sums and work the program to suit yourself. Fingers crossed, this could be a keeper. {There has been some downtime with the site, but teething problems) I actually just got this member email:

GWDC Online update
First I want to welcome everyone to Global Wealth Distribution Center online (GWDConline.com).

This is just a short welcome and a quick update. I know that we are brand new and things may not look so good right now with some noticed down time, So for this reason i am setting up on staminus network which is known to have a good DDOs protection.

~~I know some have found hat they can access the site via current IP http://67.23.166.72 how ever this will be changed very soon.~~ Has now been rectified with new hosting.

I want to say that all distributions have been fulfilled as of now. I have current backups which run hourly.

While I know that no down time is good of any kind I am truly thankful that it happened so early on before we really even get started. This gives us the chance to correct any thing that may prevent smoother operation in the future.

With deepest sincerity,
Albert

Active positive Admin.

StarWarsSurf Has been performing extremely well, however the last few days issues arrising and I had to put in the on hold section. I received no payment today yet says it did on the website and yesterday I upgraded before surfing and when I completed surfing I received only part payment due, even less than I would have without the upgrade. No transactions reflect what happened, so there is a script problem and I will wait and see how this all pans out.

Enjoy ya weekend, hope I didn't bore you too much, but needed to update on a few fronts. Laters

22/10/2010 Global Wealth Distribution Centre - GWDC

2010-10-22T06:53:00.001-05:00

New opportunity this one. The script is very informative lol. Seems you get an email for everything, I actually like it. Okay time is right for a stable longer term site. 3% for 40 days, that's 120% all up, daily cashouts. Early days yet and I see MNO's logo on the site but he hasn't posted yet :)

I have a feeling this could be a good move joining GWDCONLINE. Remember the golden rules though :) Laters, be posting my experiences here. Keep an eye out :)

20/10/2010 Weekly payments since 25 June.

2010-10-20T15:23:00.000-05:00

Really I have been enjoying Funds-O-Matic. Many members, including myself are now in profit and no signs of slowing. The admin, RandyM runs a smooth ship and currently boasts all payments withing 24 hours of request. Not bad for a program that has just shy of 5000 members. The latest member email asks that only one payment request be made per day, which really isn't a big ask and certainly makes sense with the volume of payments being made.

Funds-O-Matic is a HYIP and you can read what I have said about the program previously here. No surfing so some work is still required and that is posting your payments in the forums and/or voting in some of the better monitors. I always like to say the proof is in the pudding :) So don't just take my word for it, but Funds-O-Matic has proven stability and growth. Check it out for yourself.

18/10/2010 Threads that consist of mostly Monitors posts

2010-10-18T16:58:00.000-05:00

Something I feel needs to be said in the current times of this industry. Do you notice how many monitor sites there are these days? Seems every man and his dog are becoming one. The reason is to capture the RC. Okay, that's plain and simple. But looking at if from a prospective client's point of view, well I would be looking at a few things. One, be aware that most (not all, as there are a few monitors that are looking out for members welfare) but most are just there for the RC and/or are paid to post payments. Okay, with that information in hand, on reading threads how come payments aren't posted everyday? They sure as hell are receiving them, but can't even be bothered to pull their end of the bargin. Seems that they concentrate on the new opportunities. What I am trying to say is: Watch the monitors, work out which ones are working and actually monitoring the sites.

To me, something that is off putting when considering joining an opportunity is the threads where it seems only the monitors are posting. It's people like you and me that use real money, yes, from our own pocket that need to be posting in the forums to show that indeed we are getting paid. We also need to post when we aren't, but of course should follow the programs protocol before doing so. Information and real experience is what makes or breaks many a program.

So all those members out there that are not posting because nobody else does. IT'S TIME YOU SHOWED SUPPORT IN PROGRAMS THAT ARE PAYING YOU!! If you are "working a program" yeah, getting paid!! Get out there and do something for it. Post in the forums. Why you ask? Real people see real people posting payments and experiences, certainly holds more weight on the program than 50 monitors stating they were paid.

Ok I am off the soapbox now. So many tools to use and most people aren't using them. Want to make the best of what's out there, well it is a two way street, the admins can only do so much, the members have to pull their weight as well.

Currently I am enjoying a couple of great sites, but they all take member participation to succeed.

10/08/2010 Instant Surf site just powering on - 3 months now

2010-10-10T07:08:00.002-05:00

Every so so a surf site comes along and it is a success. StarWarsSurf Ingredients = great admin, constant upgrading membership and of course the main attraction - instant payments. Yep, 10% for 13 days. Getting to really like where this program is going and confidence is growing throughout the membership base. Outside income? Admin runs an online store accepting credit card payments, plus he sells no surf plans there.

To date I have enjoyed instant payments daily, sorta puts the excitement back into the realm. Latest stats?

28/08/2010 RIP Micronuts aka JS

2010-09-28T13:55:00.002-05:00

I have just read of the passing of John Stankiewicz, aka JS or Micronuts. We shared quite a few emails over the time and he had a way with words. I enjoyed reading his blog from time for many years but lately I could sense the frustration behind the words. Now he has joined his Divine maker.

June 4, 1959 - September 27, 2010

You will be missed by many, and I will miss our email bantering sessions. Rest In Peace now John.
