It's been awhile since I last blogged on here, but it looks like my life has slightly changed for the better. College is really tough when most of the class are about as clueless as they can be when it comes to Business Statistics. People actually pay money for data mining and digging up relevant information. My final exam is coming up this Wednesday and it's going to be rough when we covered only 2 chapters in 4 days.
I have to do well because it is a requirement for graduation.
A job interview has finally appeared for me and it is going to be this Tuesday at Fry's Electronics. People bashed the electronic retailer for employees being clueless and drones, but let's hope my personality will change that. I'm very knowledgeable when it comes to computer hardware, but I only know the basics of computer software. Might as well learn Linux and Mac OS X for operating systems. If all goes well, I'll be hired and work there. Seriously, I've been out of work for 18 months and a sliver of hope appears for me, no matter how small the pay is. Beats out making money online at 25 cents an hour.

NatureBucks- new GPT site
It's been a long time since I last blogged here, but spring semester at college is over. In the meantime, I have joined up a brand new GPT site known as NatureBucks. It is completely different from some GPT sites because the minimum payout is $5 and you can withdraw anytime by PayPal or various gift cards like Amazon and eBay. Payout is comparatively low, especially on surveys but they approve rather quickly in minutes.
NatureBucks seems to be a brand new GPT site that has plenty of potential. There is also a 40% referral commission at the 1st downline, but none at the 2nd downline. It will grow in time, but advertisers seem to be doing reversals lately for fake addresses, fraud, and spoofing. This applies to all GPT sites. I suggest giving NatureBucks a try. People want to cash out quickly instead of waiting 30 to 45 days for payment.

TreasureTrooper monthly contests
It seems that TreasureTrooper is going to do monthly contests from now on to attract old and new people to GPT. The last month of the year is a daily survey contest and the prizes are cool hard cash. I seem to be doing very well in the top and no one else seems to be where I'm at. Even if I'm unemployed, at least there are some ways of making money online. It may not be much, but it is much better than earning nothing at all.

Click on my egg to help it hatch
I put up a banner on the right side showing a dragon egg. Clicking on it will redirect you to Treasure Trooper, which is a GPT site to help you make money online. This site helped me get a little extra money every month for me to spend on penny auctions. It is better than spending your own money and lose everything from penny auctions. Treasure Trooper is a great site and I've been using them for 2 years. I want to make it into their VIP Club which requires $500 in lifetime earnings. You actually do get paid to answer surveys, make credit card purchases, and other offers that are completely free. The dragon egg is another mini-game where you can possibly earn extra money.

Tips on winning SpeedyFinger
Here are some tips on winning SpeedyFinger. First of all, SpeedyFinger is very different from other penny auction sites in that every auction listed is a reserve auction. The key to winning is be patient in all of the auctions. Some people go away winning an auction with only a few bids, but others just place bids on auctions and then leave. This is where you take the chance at bidding some at someone else's expense. It may be cruel, but it will prove to be invaluable in getting that item you always wanted.
SpeedyFinger does have beginner auctions where it cost no bids. You just keep clicking your mouse button until you win. It is that simple. Now it is onto the bid packs at the bottom of the screen. Those auctions only cost bids so use them wisely. All of them are guessing games on whether they end high or low. The main purpose here is to build up your bids so you can tackle the featured items with as many bids as possible.
Bid Blitz should only be used to get what you want, but it will drain your bids fast until the reserve price is reached. The main problem with using Bid Blitz is that bidders run out of bids before the reserve price is reached. This is where you take the chance and use Bid Blitz yourself to win the auction. You may win big or lose some bids, but better than the last bidder who used all of his/her bids.
You can also exchange your winnings for bids to tackle on bigger items such as the iPad. I do this all the time and need the bids to get what I want from the auctions.
Just be careful of auctions that disable Bid Blitz because you may either win or lose bids if the reserve price is reached. There are some people who just build up a hoard of bids to tackle the priciest auctions with ease. Free bids make life easier and you have a better chance of winning. Just be prepared in advance and make sure you have bids to win on SpeedyFinger.

TreasureTrooper's November contest
This is different from penny auction sites, but it helps you earn extra money into your PayPal account easily. Treasure Trooper is sponsoring a contest where whoever gets the most referrals gets bonus money. It is rather simple really. All you have to do is sign up for DirecTV for a year and Treasure Trooper will pay you $180! That's right $180 just for completing this offer and get it approved.
If you refer people who sign up for Treasure Trooper and completed the DirecTV offer, they also get $180 easily. The best part is, you get $36 for each referral that has completed the DirecTV offer. It really adds up quickly and this contest is for the month of November. This adds up really quickly in referrals. As for the bonus, you must have at least 3 referrals who completed the DirecTV offer and you get a $50 bonus.
Here is how it goes for referrals completing the DirecTV offer and bonuses:
Get three leads, get a $50 bonus!
Get five leads, get a $100 bonus!
Get ten leads, get a $250 bonus!
User with the most leads (must have at least 10) gets a $500 bonus!
Pretty nifty overall and you can use that money any way you want it.

Penny auctions accounts frozen by PayPal
There are plenty of penny auctions appearing on the Web lately due to the global recession, especially here in the USA. They are gaining momentum as more people are losing their jobs and hoping to win some items really cheap. However, there is a speed bump to many PA sites when it comes to opening up a merchant account from PayPal. Seems that PayPal doesn't like the concept of penny auctions, so they try to make things more difficult in acquiring your merchant account. Some go to other payment gateways while some go through the process of getting PayPal. I'm not sure which is correct, but most PA sites are booming due to great success in troubled times.
