Who do you think gains if PayPal stops Indians from using PayPal?

Wismay @Wismay (2037) • India 5 Feb 10

Hi Friends, I observed that many members are complaining about PayPal not allowing Personal Account Payments. Don't know whether that is the same with Business Account Payments but it does seem a bit harsh as it was implemented...

paypal

charma1981 I personally never had problems with paypal, but they do charge high fee. Some of my forum friends are from India, but they never said anything about a problem with paypal. They do sometimes complain about the fee. Maybe I'll go ask to confirm.

charma1981 Why not try Helium? I think there's a short story category under the creative writing section. But I'm not quite sure about their payment method.

ebooks

hszforu @hszforu (50) • India 18 Oct 09

with lots of ebooks available on net do you think that there is decrease in purchasing books from book stores?

ebooks

7 responses

charma1981 I don't think the presence of ebooks will considerably effect paper books selling. Maybe it's different for a lot of people, but many readers (me included) still love the feel of paper cuts and the smell of freshly printed paper.

charma1981 The internet is a good place for learning new things. I learned graphic designing from free tutorials. There are some universities that offer free online courses. We only need to download the materials to study.

charma1981 I have three dogs that always drive me crazy because they are jealous of each other. When I pet one, I have to pet the other two at the same time or they'll sulk. They are used to waking me up in the morning by sniffing at my ears and licking my nose. The fact...

I found nobody discuss about forex.Actually it's legit.You only have to use good tools and softwares.

charma1981 Yes, foreign exchange is a legitimate business. But it is difficult to understand, especially if one is new to it. Some people, including me, tend to avoid high risk. So naturally, we don't involve ourselves with the business.

are u going to meet the person in person whom u just met on the internet? for me, i think id better not coz it's really dangerous nowadays if u just only go with strangers ...

3 responses

charma1981 It depends on the purpose of the meeting. I'm a freelancer, so sometimes have to meet strangers by appointment from YM or email to discuss work. But if you're talking about online dating going offline, then I agree with you. It could be dangerous.

charma1981 I like my cell phone simple, because I only use it for calls and text messages and because it is a lot cheaper. Not really following the trend, too.

charma1981 I've read about it. But it doesn't seem very profitable. If you like to write, why not join helium or associated content? Some people said those sites really did pay for articles.

charma1981 I only know one forum called goldage that is not really a paid per post forum, but it has a lot of contests with good rewards. Like, you'll get $5 after joining for 31 days and submit 120 or so posts.

charma1981 I love Mylot because it's alive. Beside here, I'm also a member of several forums which only have few active topics. Here, I get to read as many discussions as I want in topics that I actually like. I get to read honest movie reviews and new books reviews....

charma1981 The earning really depends on the people. I myself don't earn much though. I prefer reading other guys discuss about their things to starting a discussion on my own. It's a lot more interesting.

charma1981 I can't be sure if the site is really useful or not. I did get a few referrals for some PTCs that I join from them. If you are into affiliate marketing, that site can help draw traffic.

What is your job now?And do you like it?

byetals @byetals (66) • China 17 Mar 09

I want to know that because I have to find a job in one year .I am now a college student.I want to know that can I find a job I like and in tne same time it will satisfied my daily life? Can you share your experiences?

charma1981 Finding a job is kind of hard. It's easier if you can "test drive" it first. Maybe ask someone in the field if you can follow them around to get a hang of the work. I myself took a nose-dive for my first job and kind of belly-flopped. And for my second and...

shiloh_222 @shiloh_222 (5479) • Philippines 9 Dec 08

hi. do you hibernate? i could never imagine that people, specifically my close friend can do just that. i mean, his sleep debts are catching on him and he goes to hibernation mode for the entire day...which is understandable or...

charma1981 Most definitely. I never go more than 24 hours though. The longest time I hibernate would be 16 hours, give or take half an hour. Usually after Christmas and before New Year. It's kinda nice catching up for the 350 days lack of sleep.

do you choose to end a relationship in person or over the phone?

michael_nonan @michael_nonan (384) • Philippines 9 Dec 08

i've had two experiences where i have to experience a break face to face. and i'm telling you, it's not really that nice whether your the one breaking up or the other side wants to quit. whats your story

personal

9 responses

charma1981 It's better to tell it in person. There would be no loose ends, would be a clean break to. At least if we could hold our emotion in check. Phone is a bit too impersonal, I think? I did the breaking once via sms, he didn't get it. It had to be face to face.
