Trash into Treasure. Why do so few do this?

Boxing in my long stock position and making $298!

I also sold a June $26 put on UCO - oil could fall further due to the global slowdown.

The high dividend / covered call strategy in action

I made $258.65 working from home last week. Documented!

The image above were option trades. You can earn income by selling calls and puts!
The above receipt shows what I earned from cans found in Indiana or donated by neighbors/relatives.

 

Proof of Payment Inbox Dollars

$80 per year from @Swagbucks | Helpful Tips

You should be earning $5 PayPal every 23 days. If you are not, use the tips below!

For those unfamiliar with this program, you search the Internet and get "swagbucks". Those swagbucks are redeemable for Amazon gift cards, PayPal cash, and lots of other prizes.

1. Start searching at the beginning of the day. Search until you win some swagbucks.
2. I don't search again for another 6 hours (less searches the better).
3. Sign up for text alerts when swagcodes come out.
4. Refer family and friends. This helps you get to your desired level quickly.
5. You can get a minimum of 3 free swagbucks EVERY SINGLE DAY. Go to no obligation special offers, poll of the day, and log in using the toolbar.
6. Check you inbox on the swagbucks site. Every day you can earn 3 bucks from watching a video and answering a question. Plus the time spent accumulates towards another 3 bucks from SBTV viewing.
7. Friday is Mega Swagbucks Day. So don't skip Fridays.
8. You can also get swagbucks when you send in an old cell phone. They even pay for shipping.

Sweepstakes, Giveaways, and Surveys

Many of my twitter followers and almost all the "mommy saver" blogs love sweepstakes, giveaways, and surveys. So I figured it was time to give readers anecdotal evidence of how well these work.

Giveaways and sweepstakes often involve filling out a web based form, becoming a Facebook fan, or some other rule based procedure. Sites that run them are interested in generating traffic and data mining (collecting email addresses).

I have never won anything! I entered Daily Dough and Tiger Direct religiously for 77 straight days, To get better odds, the wife also entered and came up empty. Bottom line ~ they are time wasters and appeal to people who have no understanding of the opportunity cost of time.

Surveys are marginal at best. I get surveys through InboxDollars and Swagbucks. They can pay anywhere from $0.50 for 10 minutes of work and up to $3 for 30 minutes of work. The problem ~ you must qualify to take a survey and frugal folks rarely do. My batting average is 3/10.  

The programs in my sidebar are time tested and documented on this blog.

Until next time, much prosperity to all of my readers!
