I ran across a new cause. A good cause. One that would work if we all participate.
I had actually done this a long time ago before the ‘bailout’. I have not really been affected directly by the bailout or housing crisis. But I have seen effects. And it is so wrong.
So go here, to http://moveyourmoney.info/ and watch the video. Then follow the steps outlined. And then pat yourself on the back for moving your money. For doing the most sensible thing citizens of our country can do for each other.
If you had already done it, good for you.Good for you for not participating in the destructive ‘Potter machine’.
It would be a good way to start off 2010. It would also be a good way to strike back at the vermin called the ‘power banks’ left out there that we will not tolerate what they have done to us for their personal gain.

I was doing some research on types of marketing and found word of mouth marketing is still the best type. Obviously the best word of mouth advertising is from a satisfied customer. But first you have to win the customers satisfaction.
Word of mouth marketing has the black sheep of a cousin called network marketing. It can work, but it has gotten a bad name from its representatives being too pushy. People hear the word ‘MLM’ or ‘pyramid scheme’ and they run the other way, offended seemingly because someone actually had the nerve to try to make a living by talking to you.
If you just tell the person that you are not interested, they will stop wasting their time with you.
In this time in our economy, with ALL the AMERICANS that do not have a job through no fault of their own, I feel we owe it to them to listen. To keep an open mind about what they are trying to sell.
I will be honest with you, I have a new product to market. But I will not bug or harass people because I got better things to do. And a conscience.
So I am going to tell you about it. I am going to ask you to get it and try it. So try it. Or don’t. But don’t get mad at me for asking you to try it or tell you about it. I am still the same person. Just trying to make a living.
One of my favorite sayings is You always miss 100% of the shots you don’t take. I follow it. So do lots of other people whether they know it or not. Don’t be mad at us for it.

#1 Estimated annual cost of operating Guantánamo: $90 million to $118 million. So is Guantánamo helping us or hurting us? Sure the people our government says are dangerous to our society are put away, but then more can and will come along. So should we just keep on throwing money at the problem? That is not going to make Gitmo just go away but actually just get bigger! Here are some facts that came from the New York Times in 2007. Dated yes, but I just wanted to get the number that started this paragraph.That is a lot of money that could help a lot of unemployed people, don’t you think?
The recent rise in Wall Street bonuses. We all want to know one thing above else, right? How do those CEOs live with themselves? I suspect those CEOs know and remember and were possibly part of the reason the bailouts happened. And now they are hoarding more of the hard earned dollars that should be more evenly dispersed across the U.S. I am not one who believes in socialism. I believe there needs to be more ‘grey area’ work to get those CEO hoarders out in the open to make amends to people who just want to have a better quality of life. If you have more money than you can possibly use, give it to someone so they can eat.
I am beginning to think that those same CEOs and other bonus receivers are just as bad as the terrorists are. And maybe-just maybe-the money spent at Gitmo Bay is less than or equal to what those less than savory CEOs receive.
Yes, that may be a hint.
