I discovered a website that I feel is most useful to all of us. You know how difficult it is to manage your money when everything is getting more and more expensive but our salary seemed stuck? I was shocked to read that the minimum wage for Americans is only $5.85 per hour. Isn’t that ridiculous and how does one manage on that sum, especially if they have children? While some may think that most people do not earn only the minimum, you will be surprised how many adults actually earn that or even less! It’s no wonder that some people cannot manage their finances and end up in debt.

I have told a few of my friends about Bills.com and they say that the site is very resourceful and packed with information on how to get out of debt. Also, they could easily get mortgage help without hassle by just filling out a form and lenders on the database of Bills.com would be in contact.

My friends say that the have gained invaluable information from Bills.com and they could apply that knowledge on themselves. Now, they could help with bills and other miscellaneous expenses of every household, without placing the entire burden on the shoulders of their partner.

I don’t know what’s happening but time seems to just pass me by. I remember spending the last few days since I last bite Kate, working, blogging, sleeping, working, blogging, blogging, blogging, taking the monkey to the vet, working, blogging, blogging…. eh, that sounds like the life I led FOR THE PAST YEAR!

Last night, I just found out that the minimum wage for Americans is US$5.85 per hour. That’s like MYR20 per hour over here. Actually how much is the minimum wage over here? I never found out because we calculate our wages by the month, unlike Americans.

I think I need to ask my sister how much she is getting. Is she being underpaid? Poor thing!

Come to think of it, the minimum wage per month here is *I think* MYR750 and for a month with 26 working days, that turns out to be MYR29 PER DAY. Can you beat that? In America, people are getting that PER HOUR and we are getting that PER DAY!

That’s why my friend keeps asking me to go over to America to work. He said I will be able to earn US$600 per week just answering the phone, and that’s just an entry level job for someone without skills at all, except for the skill of answering a telephone. Really ah???

My friend says that since I know how to type and am English speaking, I could easily earn US$800 per week. Really meh???

I know of a man who jet sets all over the world in his private plane but for people who do not own an airplane, they can always opt for a charter flight. At first, I did not know that such a service is so in demand until my friend told me to check out the website of Elite Jet Charter.

I am impressed that Elite Jet Charter flies to over five thousand (!) destinations around the world and I think that means it could take you wherever you want to go!

I clicked on VIEW ALL of their planes and helicopters available and WOW, they have a fleet of twenty light jets, eleven midsized jets, fifteen large jets, seven props and four helicopters. With this large fleet of aircrafts, no matter what is the size of your traveling party, Elite Jet Charter is surely able to accommodate you!

Elite Jet Charter has made it easy for potential traveler to get a quotation for a flight charter by filling out a form providing information on the type of trip one is making. For the frequent traveler, Elite offers exclusive membership at $50,000 and above per year, granting the member access to range of aircrafts anytime, anywhere.

Isn’t it great to travel in style?

Ever since getting myself a new cell phone, well, we call them “device” now, I have been trying to use it to the fullest. I have also subscribed to an unlimited 3G data plan so of course if I do not use it, I will feel I have wasted money since it is already paid for in advance.

A friend of mine, an early adopter of 3G service, told me about TxtVox.com which is an information on demand service via SMS text.

Firstly, we have to register with TxTVox.com and then select from a vast range of SMS service and customize the delivery of these messages. Information will then be delivered to our cell phone as and when we have set them to.

TxtVox.com is a free service but your mobile service company may impose charges on the SMS received so you may want to check it out with your provider first. Get alerts to your cell phone now! You want to be in the loop, don’t you?

The internet is so wide that it is definitely not easy to keep track of websites and blogs. We wouldn’t even know if someone mentioned our name.

I recently made use of Google Alerts and set it to alert me every day when my name is mentioned anywhere on the internet. So far, it has brought me many sites that were irrelevant but there have been times when Google Alerts brought me the right info.

However, because I have set it to alert me once a day, by the time I receive my alert, I already have found out who wrote about me. But think about it. It’s not always that we are so lucky to be alerted by fellow internet users and it is not always that we get an incoming link alert on our WordPress blogs. In fact, there was once when this incoming links alert did not update for almost a month.

This is where Google Alerts come in handy. As I use it, I keep on adding words that are relevant to my name or online ID and I am surprised with the kind of alerts that are picked up. Even though some are wrong, I still get great reading material out of the articles.
