The Life Of My Dreams!



The life of my dreams would be for me to be able to work from home! Did you know that I am kind of doing that now with the Google Adsense program! I am actually earning money with the Google Adsense program and it is fulfilling my dream of being able to work at home.

Now I'm not an Adsense Millionaire yet but I am working on it!

Having the google adsense ads here on my blog is but just one way of being able to make money online. I also do tarot and astrology readings as well and that is yet another way for me to be able to earn money online.

There are lots of other things that I can do - especially with my tarot and astrology readings. I could start a podcast and a newsletter and like they say you are only limited by your own imagination!

I am also working on my search engine optimization - meaning that I am working on getting my blog high on the search engine rankings - although I haven't decided yet on what keywords I want my blog to be associated with.

My mission statement is to have at least $1 Million Dollars in my bank account and then I can live off of the interest!

I'm Still Waiting For My Adsense Check......

This is one of those situations where I should note what I am grateful for. I'm grateful that I'm getting an Adsense check at all. So many people have said how they have added adsense to their sites and have made little to no money from it yet.

You have to earn at least $100 during the month before Adsense will send you a payment and fortunately I was able to earn this amount last month. So now that I'm supposed to get an adsense payment this month for last month's earnings, I'm anxiously awaiting the payment.

My Financial Goal!

My financial goal is to have $1 Million Dollars in the bank and living off the interest from that! You can say that I am pretty much starting off at zero but as I look back at my life I do see improvement. For instance I now have a bank account after not having one for quite some time - a few years!

  • To get more specific (I hope that this helps others) I had overdrawn my previous bank account to the point that it was closed out. Now with them adding additional fees there was a bigger amount that I had to pay. So for a time I didn't have a bank account and for a while that suited me just fine because at the time I didn't have any money! But you know what there were times when I did receive some money such as a tax refund or the check that I got for doing jury duty when I had to go to a check cashing place to get my check cashed - and of course there was a fee involved to cash the check. As time went by I wanted to have a bank account again! So I started making payments on the balance.

    Here is a good rule of thumb that I read somewhere - Start making payments on money that you owe even if it is just $10 a month.

    It took me about maybe three years to pay of my bank balance. I had started making payments but then had stopped for a while and then maybe a year or two later I was able to make the last payment in one big lump! Where did I get the money to make the lump sum payment? I got the money from a real estate transaction that had to do with my home. So I paid off the balance and within two weeks I opened a new bank account which I have now. This bank doesn't have a fee for how much you have in your checking account because I will tell you (hopefully again hoping that this will help you) that there have been times when I have had less than $1 in my bank account. But I have not looked at this as a bad thing. The good thing about this is that I have a balance in my account - a positive balance - even if it is under a dollar! Have I ever overdrawn this account? - Yes - and the lesson that I have learned from that is to not do it again! So now I have a bank account again which makes life much more easier and convenient! It is also a sign that my financial life is improving and headed in the direction that I want it to be!


Maybe if I talk about my experiences it will help some of you who are in the same (or unfortunately more worse) circumstance.
