reginapaul I haven't personally tried them, but it's been my experience that paid to read e-mails programs take a very long time to generate any income. You might consider other options such as writing articles for Associated Content for example which I know for a fact...

reginapaul If you are looking for a webhost that does not have forced ads, and is free, and on which you can place your own ads, I suggest 110mb.com I moved from Bravehost to them about 5 months or so ago, and I am very happy with them. They do only offer sign up at...

reginapaul There are a lot of scams out there. Really any that ask you to pay any amount of money or to complete offers are scams as far as I'm concerned. I'm not going to pay anyone to pay me. I actually have a blog where I talk about the programs I'm trying, the ones...

GuateMom @GuateMom (1411) • Canada 14 Apr 07

I have a potential job writing articles for a guy. Now, on my website, I specify payment in advance, but this guy refused. So I offered to do 10 articles on spec and then when he paid me for those, I would do the remaining 40 (50...

reginapaul Dump him! He is trying to get you to do articles and not pay you would be my guess, and then he's trying to confuse you by acting like he hasn't gotten your e-mails. You can get a much better deal by writing for Associated Content (if you don't already)and you...

reginapaul Girlfriend, you need to get rid of this guy now before you wind up married to him with kids, and in a really bad situation. The fact that he is your brother's best friend shouldn't matter, your brother isn't the one who is dealing with him romantically, you...

reginapaul I've had both DSL and cable and I prefer cable hands down. It is faster and more reliable, at least that has been my experience. When I had DSL there were more periods of downtime and it was not as readily available. Also DSL I found to sometimes be...

hockeygal4ever @hockeygal4ever (10021) • United States 13 Apr 07

reginapaul Yes, I can totally relate. I worked in the corporate world for nearly 15 years before I started working from home, and for me it was just that environment and I hated it. All the backstabbing, and gossip, and doing whatever it took to get ahead including lying...

reginapaul If it were me, I'd counsel the brother to tell his brother. It's a no-win situation really because he's either going to be mad nobody told him, or he's going to be mad at the brother because maybe he doesn't believe him. If he can get some kind of evidence...

Who will choose your child career.. you or the child?

raheel07 @raheel07 (485) • Pakistan 13 Apr 07

Would you allow your child to study whatever he wants to at higher level or would you scan his choice and try to convince him about what you want him/her to be?

reginapaul The child should choose his/her career without any interference from the parents. My parents did that to both my brother and I, and we both highly resented it. It was so bad that my father told me when I was fifteen what I was going to go to college for and I...

Giving money to a brother without telling the wife?

ethanmama @ethanmama (1745) • Philippines 13 Apr 07

reginapaul I think the guy should not have kept this from his wife, especially since he knew she would object. That should have been a clue to him right there that it was not a sound decision. His wife has every right to be angry with him, and that would be the first...
