Take Charge of Your Credit With Credit Fairy
"Many are unaware of the negative long-term impact that poor credit can have on their financial security and quality of life. The Ad Council has teamed up with The Consumer Bankers Foundation and the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights Education Fund, as well as the banks you see listed below, to develop a campaign about simple steps you can take to improving your credit." - creditfairy.org
I just wanted to share this site with everyone. I know times are tough right now and a lot of people are losing their jobs along with their homes, business, etc. Most will most likely depend on credit cards in order to cover any gaps in their daily expenses. Some will also have to give up their homes and or default on loans. As the available credit limits tighten and more strict rules are applied to potential borrowers, your credit score will be a huge factor in your potential approval/denial process.
I know most people see commercials on TV, radio, internet about companies that provide services that either fix or increase your credit score by applying their "magic." The truth is there really is no magic at all. There are steps, that are FREE, that you can take yourself in order to get educated about credit in general and improve your credit worthiness.
CreiditFairy is one of those sites that you can use for FREE to get all of you credit questions answered.

The Entrepreneur and Internet Home Business
Have you ever tried running a business that is online? A lot of entrepreneurs are now relying on the power of the internet to market their products or services. Home businesses are gaining more and more popularity these days. Perhaps it's also time for you to consider an internet entrepreneur home business.
Sometimes, those that have families can’t manage their time between career and family life. Because of this, most of them are forced to leave their jobs just so they can take good care of their family. This is not the end of the world for you. In fact, even when you're at home and taking care of your family, you can run an online business.
There are a lot of home business opportunities online. All it takes is looking into your home business options and choosing the right one that will work for you. If you have the qualities of an entrepreneur, an internet home business will be the answer to your needs. Oftentimes, if only the husband or the wife works, the income is not enough to provide for the family's needs. If you don’t have a career or a job, you can start thinking of the best internet home business opportunity.
If you have your own computer and most importantly, an internet connection, you can already become an entrepreneur who owns or runs an internet home business. However, you must also see to it that the business is legitimate to avoid any problems in the future.
The first option is to become an affiliate marketer. For those entrepreneurs with limited capital for business, this is an excellent choice because you will only need a small amount. You will have to find an affiliate company who will provide you with the products or services. After doing so, you will then create your very own site where you will market the products or services. In order to attract huge traffic to your website, it must be interesting and catchy. You will be able to receive commissions for every product sold or for the services rendered.
Supposing you already have a home business such as arts and crafts. Perhaps you've observed that you have very few customers in your locality. If you want to have a larger market, you can turn your home business into an internet home business. By doing so, you can reach the different countries of the world. You have to create your own website and there you can put pictures of your arts and crafts.
This will take a lot of hard work especially if you're just starting out. You will have to work on your site and make it user-friendly. If customers can maneuver within your site without any problems and you have excellent arts or crafts products, more orders will come in.
Since you're an entrepreneur, you will not have much problems dealing with the orders and shipments of your products. You only have to establish the right contacts or connections and the profits will come rolling in.
There are still other internet home business opportunities for entrepreneurs. By surfing the net, you can find the right business opportunity for you. Your qualities and capabilities as an entrepreneur will not go to waste if you engage in internet business.
So if you have limited capital and less business resources, try the home business opportunities online.

Business Ideas for the Entrepreneur
Many individuals nowadays prefer to have a home-based job rather than working eight hours each day in the office. Some people are also into franchising; this may sound good but if you want to become a successful entrepreneur, you don’t have to focus entirely on franchising. You should consider other business ideas that you can venture into.
Research can be carried out with ease these days, thanks to the power of the internet. If you conduct your search online, you can find other business ideas that you can use as an entrepreneur. Beginners will benefit a lot from the information they can find online about business ideas.
Because of the many business ideas you can find online, you will often find it hard to choose the ones you like. It’s easy to choose if you use your instincts. For instance, if one business idea feels right, take note of it but if you have second thoughts about another idea, disregard it.
As an entrepreneur, you should investigate further by gathering as much information as possible about the business ideas. True enough, franchise is absolutely a great idea. By choosing this business alternative, you can be the boss of your own business and you can earn unlimited income.
However, according to experts, franchise and other internet businesses promise the same business opportunities. It will all differ on how you handle the business.
Not all individuals who desire to own a business can achieve this goal. You see, being an entrepreneur is hard. There are a lot of factors to consider before you decide to become an entrepreneur. Even if you have the capital to finance the business undertaking, you can’t be sure that it can give you high profits in the future especially if you don’t know how to handle certain business situations.
First and foremost, you must be able to work alone. Once you’re an entrepreneur, you’re already self-employed. It would also be best if you can have the support of your loved ones.
Here is a very good example. As mentioned earlier, further investigation is needed to evaluate the business ideas that you have in your hands. Starting a business from scratch requires a lot of work. Suppose the business that you’re about to put up is also available in franchise, which business idea will you choose?
For the smart entrepreneurs, they will already go for franchising because it requires less work. An established business undertaking is less expensive and less risky. But before you make a final decision, you must be able to weigh all the advantages as well as disadvantages. This is an essential part of choosing the best business idea.
Once you’ve chosen the right business idea, you can spring it into action. Soon enough, you will gain the financial benefits that you’re dreaming of. Whether you choose to start your own business or go for franchising, the most important thing is to develop goodwill. All the actions of the entrepreneur must be focused in attaining all the objectives of the business.
If you want to become an entrepreneur, you must research all the business ideas that you can get online. The internet can help you a lot. Also, don’t forget to develop the needed traits and skills as an entrepreneur.
You can get many resources through the internet or you can talk to an established entrepreneur so that you will have an idea on what you’re about to undertake.

Sleep Number Beds - Hard to sleep after doing business with them
Select Comfort, famous for its Sleep Number beds are a horrible company to deal with. We were recommended their products by our chiropractor. I personally did not think that they were better then the tempur-pedic beds that we had tried for half the price but I was talked into it by my fiance with the "what about when I get pregnant what if my needs change?" argument.
I ended up buying the King size memory foam bed because I liked the support that the foam gives me. I paid $4500 for this bed. I was expecting this thing to change my life for that much money.
The problems started the day they delivered it. The installers came in with a couple of plastic bags filled with some rolls of foam and a few other miscellanous parts. The bed came in my house in 5 bags. The installers took what looked like an air mattress and plugged it into a pump. The laid a few layers of foam down and zipped into the bed package and said here you are. I thought this bed would cost about $200 to make. The products did not seem like anything near what a $4500 bed should be like.
So we try it and I am not impressed. I go to the store and ask about a return and am told I have to disassemble it and drive it to the distribution store in Plymouth, MN. My fiance talks me out of returning because she likes the bed. I am mostly pissed at this point for overpaying for what I felt should have been a 900 dollar bed or so.
Then 40 days after I buy the bed they drop the price in half on my bed to $2250. This of course prompted a call from me to their customer service. I said I bought this bed about a month ago and its selling for half now, I want the difference. They said no. I asked for a supervisor, who also said no. I asked for a manager. They said they would take a message, they never called me back.
I called again and left another message for a manager, no one called me back again. I will be calling again.
I am basically pissed because I paid $4500 for a bed, and made two payments of $450 and still owe more then $1350 more then I could buy one for today.
The bed is OK at best. The customer service is a joke. They don't care about your satisfaction, just about their profits. Do not buy from them.

IronGym Pull UP Bar from HELL! AS seen on TV shiznit.
GREAT product, HORRIBLE company....
Wanna get strong? Wanna get lean? Wanna get ripped? Ahhh...YES please!
Before you read this you have to check out the actual site and the product i am talking about, go HERE. (but do come back here, ya hear!)
Alright, so most of you that know me or have seen me know that i am in pretty good shape and like to workout on regular basis. Since shutting down my Lifetime, put a hole in your wallet, gym membership a year a go i had to find an alternative methods to get my daily workout. So here i was watching some TV when the commercial for the IronGym bar came up (just like on their site). At first i was saying that is pretty cool but i am not paying $60 for a metal rod with grips. But then, as much as i hate to admit it, i was sucked in by their closing technique. "Buy now and get if for HALF OFF"the announcer said. So forgoing the phone ordering process because human interaction only slows the process down i decided to go to their site and get it there. Filled out all my info got some extras like the straps for ab workouts and i was good to go. Spend a total of $50 and felt pretty good about my purchase that i made with my biz AMEX card.
So i eagerly awaited the day that my pull up bar would come so i can test their claims and save $60 per month in gym fees. Finally the day came and i got the goods. Opened the box inspected the goods and assembled it. YES, assembly of the bar is required, which is pretty easy considering i had directions :-). Placed it just like the commercials and went to work. This thing was AWESOME! I loved it so much because it was the single piece of exercise equipment that i have ever used that was actually fun and guess what it WORKED! Now i was not some out of shape guy nor was i a buddy builder but i kid you not this thing worked like a charm. I lost weight and had better muscle definition. This was the first thing i have ever bough from a TV infomercial and i was impressed. I just always thought those things were cheap and all CRAP, but this worked.
THE PROBLEM:
A few weeks passed by and i got a phone call from a company, don't recall the name because i could not understand what the person on the other end said. So i answered the phone (this is my cell phone mind you the only phone i use) from a number that i now know is from somewhere in San Diego, CA.
here is the transcript of the conversations recalled from my memory:
women speaking broken English: "ah....ahh....hello? Can i speak with G...G....GGohr...Gohr..."
i interrupt and say: "GORAN!? Yes this is what are you selling and how did you get this number!"
Woman goes into script reading mode: "yes Mr. Goran i am calling on behalf of (insert company name here) to let you know that you are receiving a free $100 gift card from us because you have such good history with AMEX card ending in XXXX where would you like us to send this car?"
NO WAY! IronGym sold MY info to this company so they can hustle me for more stuff? DAMN, sometimes i just hate marketing. I know they sold my info because i asked the lady how they got my info and she told me that it was from an online purchase around X date. WOW....IronGym you SUCK!
WHAT I DID:
So after i told the rep that i was not interested and to take me off their calling list i immediately called the number back to OPT OUT of their calling system. I also added my cell phone number to the DO NOT call list I continued to receive a call per week from these guys and every time i was polite and told them that i was not interested and to take me off their list. But his apparently did not work. Until one day, a guy called me from that company and again i told him that i was not interested and to take me of their list. He proceeded to be an idiot over the phone and try to hard sell me. I HATE THIS! Needless to say i gave him some insight on why he was being a jerk and they never called me since.
Overall i give this product a SMASH because the S*** really works! I do see now that you can buy similar products in retail stores and avoid the telemarketing battle.

My Car Export Manual finally DONE!
So i am happy to report that my eBook on how to export cars out of the USA is finally done and edited! After a long struggle and debate, mainly by me, whether or not to publish it i am putting it out on the market. I am currently in the process of creating my sales page and you can check out what i have so far HERE. Feel free to check it out and give me some suggestions before i put it up for sale. I am 100% confidant that this ebook will actually do what it says that i am willing to offer my personal guarantee.
What does that mean for you? Well, if you cant export a vehicle by reading this manual i will personally help you do it and guide you to get it done!
I am debating on putting it up on clickbank but i really don't want to cheapen my product. Even thought clickbank does carry few legit items that are worth some money.
i guess i will see what happens....

Get PAID to fill out online surveys! SMASH or TRASH?
Alright so I decided to check this out just to see how BAD I would get ripped off.
Now I am not the one to rain on someones parade or ruin their business, but this site truly blows. So the pitch is basically the same thing we all heard before; sit on your ass and make money working from home, no experience necessary, get paid to read emails, blah blah blah...
this is their headline.....
“Discover How to Make as Much Money as You
Wow all I need is an Internet connection, spare time, and a brain cell to form an opinion. GREAT! So knowing that this will not turn out well from the start I swallowed my pride and continued to read on. After a few minutes I was ready to make the purchase and take advantage of their "money back guarantee." Being a web savvy individual myself I always look for the "LAST CHANCE" offer that most site like this have. This basically means that the price you see on their site for a product/service that they are trying to sell you may not be the LOWEST they will let it go for.
The original web advertised price for this membership access is $68. I think this is the number they come up after digging around in their ARRS. WAY too steep for my taste for something like this. But there was hope after all! Apparently they are running a "LIMITED TIME" campaign and are willing to cut that price in HALF. Alright i didn't have to do much and already i got it for half of their asking price. So here i am down to $34 and still have a hard time pushing that buy button. I WANT A LOWER PRICE DAMN IT!
HERE IT IS:
So i go to my FireFox browser tab and click on the X to close the window. And what do you know? A nice little pop up comes up that says "ok ok alright we know this STUFF we are selling is not worth the keystroke we used to create it so tell ya what. If you click cancel on the bottom of you close window we will give you the membership log in for only $17" -NOTE i paraphrased to make it sound more exciting.
NOPE! Still not sold on your, now $17, item that is guaranteed to suck by how convincing you are making it seem that this indeed is a valuable product to purchase. I click the X button again after clicking on the cancel in the previous pop up and what do i see? Yes, another pop up window where the price is a low $7. FINE! If i was going to write this post i made as well have some experience behind it. So I make my purchase and genuinely want to make it work so i can write a more positive result. After my $7 payment was processed i was taken to yet another sales page or as we in the biz call it a "UP SALE" where they try to squeeze more money out of me. I believe i clicked through 4 different attempts at getting me to buy more expensive products. So finally i was at the members page and ready to fill out a survey to make some "QUICK CASH." There are about 4 pages of different company links to sign up and participate in their "survey" program to" get paid."
OK whatever i will try and see what happens maybe one of these will work. I picked the TOP 3 and did everything they asked me to do. Of course i did NOT put in my actual info i used my JUNK account to set these up.
OUTCOME:
After wasting an hour trying to get paid i realized that there was no such thing as "getting paid to read surveys." Most of the companies offer incentive programs where you collect their points where you can turn in for prizes after filling out so much CRAP online that your phone/email will be blasted with telemarketers/SPAM daily.
Here is their TOP suggested marketing company, CLICK HERE to be taken to the landing page. All though i would not waste my time. Collection points to get a $10 gift card is just not worth the amount of CRAP you will get in return. The bottom line is that companies like this don't really pay you for the surveys. Their main objective is to collect your information so they can sell it to third partys. ALWAYS read the privacy policy before you disclose any information online.
I have already asked for my $7 back and am waiting to see what happens with that. Keep you posted!
And for now, "Get PAID to complete surveys online" is most definitely TRASH

If you click cancel on the bottom of you close window we will give you the membership log in for only $17" -NOTE i paraphrased to make it sound more exciting.
NOPE! Still not sold on your, now $17, item that is guaranteed to suck by how convincing you are making it seem that this indeed is a valuable product to purchase. I click the X button again after clicking on the cancel in the previous pop up and what do i see? Yes, another pop up window where the price is a low $7. FINE! If i was going to write this post i made as well have some experience behind it. So I make my purchase and genuinely want to make it work so i can write a more positive result. After my $7 payment was processed i was taken to yet another sales page or as we in the biz call it a "UP SALE" where they try to squeeze more money out of me. I believe i clicked through 4 different attempts at getting me to buy more expensive products. So finally i was at the members page and ready to fill out a survey to make some "QUICK CASH." There are about 4 pages of different company links to sign up and participate in their "survey" program to" get paid."
OK whatever i will try and see what happens maybe one of these will work. I picked the TOP 3 and did everything they asked me to do. Of course i did NOT put in my actual info i used my JUNK account to set these up.
OUTCOME:
After wasting an hour trying to get paid i realized that there was no such thing as "getting paid to read surveys." Most of the companies offer incentive programs where you collect their points where you can turn in for prizes after filling out so much CRAP online that your phone/email will be blasted with telemarketers/SPAM daily.
Here is their TOP suggested marketing company, CLICK HERE to be taken to the landing page. All though i would not waste my time. Collection points to get a $10 gift card is just not worth the amount of CRAP you will get in return. The bottom line is that companies like this don't really pay you for the surveys. Their main objective is to collect your information so they can sell it to third partys. ALWAYS read the privacy policy before you disclose any information online.
I have already asked for my $7 back and am waiting to see what happens with that. Keep you posted!
And for now, "Get PAID to complete surveys online" is most definitely TRASH
