I Am So Glad I’m My Own Boss!

Working for myself is rewarding and enjoyable. I get to choose my hours and I have an incredibly short commute. It’s great and today I have even more reasons to love being my own boss: 10 Things Human Resources Won’t Say.

It appears that the corporate working world is even worse than when I left it due to a work injury eight years ago. It seems you can’t express yourself online on your own time and on your own personal blog without being in danger of getting fired if the boss doesn’t like what you have to say. I thought we had free speech in this country! Apparently toeing the line on corporate time is no longer enough!

Sorry, No Updates Today

I’ve lost a friend today. A dear loved one who will be missed by everyone who knew her.

“Offer Fraud:” Does It Really Exist?

Incentivized freebie websites (IFWs) operate by running advertisements (offers) for different products and services.  Some offers are completely free to try and others might have you pay shipping and handling.  Still others are a “get your money back if you don’t like it” type of deal.

Whatever the case, the company who puts out the offer is doing so for the purpose of gaining new customers. The company hopes that people will try their product or service and like it so much that they’ll keep it and move on to be full paying customers.

Free Lunch Room Prepares For Re-launch With New Look-New Sites

The Free Lunch Room, a freebie trading forum owned and operated by Leo Schimizu, aka, Admin, has been undergoing a transformation since disassociating itself from Project Payday in early February 2009.

If you don’t know what freebie trading is all about and how to make money, I suggest grabbing this ebook, which explains in detail how it works

The Free Lunch Room was started in early 2007  and quickly rose in popularity and traffic.  Part of FLR’s meteoric rise must be attributed to the fact that Project Payday was almost exclusively sending its traffic there.  However, FLR still enjoys a high Alexa ranking,  above the other freebie forums out there, and this is certainly a testament to the SEO and marketing skills of Leo Shimizu and his co-admin Gladiator (this is his forum handle, his real name is unknown.)

Free Lunch Room Review

Ok, so this will not be exactly an unbiased review because I got my start in the freebie trading industry at Free Lunch Room (FLR) and I love it there.

However, there are several objective reasons why FLR is a great place to come and trade:

1: The community support aspect is second to none. FLR is filled with helpful people and within seconds of you posting a question on the open forum, you’ll have several answers. When you are just starting out, this support can be invaluable to you. While freebie trading is not rocket science, it can be somewhat intimidating at first, and knowing that the answer to your questions or issues is but a mouse-click away is very important.
