Latest News & Updates 
Look here for updates on the subjects and opportunities listed to the left in tabs.
 
March 30, 2010 - Many programs that have been around for years have closed down between January and March. NanoMoneyCorp is not responding nor paying members any longer. GeniusFunds talks about coming back soon but they've been given a lot of time and all signs point to red flags. GoldNuggetInvest closed down and will refund members. I believe GNI will but time will tell. 
I joined all 3 of these programs around the same time, July or August of 2009. All three programs took about 3-4 months to get in profit, so I did get my money back and some change before they stopped paying. Opportunities come and go. We all know there is always risk and to do well, we need to calculate risk and get in profit as soon as possible. It's counter-productive to stress over what can't be controlled instead of making moves.
I'll add some more programs only if I find something that seems solid. At the current time, my online income from programs are only coming from private opportunities.
 
January 28, 2009 - I believe that I've responded to all e-mails for the past few days. If I missed you, please e-mail me again.
 
January 18, 2009 - I just joined another private opportunity yesterday. I heard about it this past week from a friend. I don't join many programs but after doing my due diligence, I felt this one was good enough to increase diversification to my portfolio. So far, I can confirm that the program has been around since 11/08, but probably longer. If you're interested in more information, contact me stating that you're looking for more information on opportunity two: http://flashbaq.com/PrivateOpportunities.aspx
 

As I truly respect your time, I don't email newsletters much. Occasionally, I will send out valuable information on topics listed here. Be the first to know what I hear & find.
*E-mail address:
If you subscribed to my newsletters before 9/2009, please re-subscribe as I lost some web data!
 
December 24, 2009 - LendingClub added under "Money Earning Opps".
 
October 08, 2009 - Update posted on the AdFlasher program. Please see the AdFlasher tab for the update.
 
September 16, 2009 - If you subscribed to my email newsletters before 9/11/2009, please re-subscribe as I lost some web data. I moved all money earning opportunities to one tab. The #2 ranked opportunity will be added soon. It's a SEC registered investment company and I think some of you will like what it has to offer. Reward Checking and Saving rates have been updated under "Where To Save Money".
 
September 10, 2009 - Currently, I've been doing well with 4-5 opportunities. I've re-added the "Private Opportunities" and "Nutronix" tab to the left.  I'm in a private invite opportunity that I joined back in October or November 08. Contact me and I may tell you about it. New programs listed here are GoldNuggetInvest, GeniusFunds, and AdFlasher. I've been in GNI & GF for about a month already and paid on time everytime. They've both been around for a long time. I was on the fence with these 2 programs since 2008 but I think they might be stable programs. I'm also testing another public opportunity that I know has been around since 2006 paying about 1% daily. As it's been around since 2006, I'm surprised it hasn't been talked about much. The program name is NanoMoneyCorp. I just joined an I'm trying to contact the admin now.
 
September 4, 2009 - Hey everyone. I've received a couple of e-mails on where am I and what have I been up to. Thanks for letting me know that you miss me :). It shouldn't be a surprise to some of you that I've been very busy with work & courses for the past couple of months. However, my workload is beginning to lessen, so look for new and consistent updates to the site soon! I've always been on the scene staying updated, looking for and joining good opportunities, reading forums, and I'm still talking to some of my business friends and networkers on occasion. Since I knew I wouldn't have time to give updates here for the past couple of months, I decided to keep some of the time-sensitive data that used to be on this site on backup until I have time to monitor consistently. That way, I wouldn't be feeding my readers old information on higher risk opportunities. Site will be going through some changes within the next few days of course.
 
June 1, 2009- Sorry all. Haven't had as much time as usual to update the website but I have been answering all messages. I am making a few minor changes to the website so ignore any errors temporarily.
 
March 12, 2009 - New Money Saving Topic posted under How To Save Money. The latest topic discusses the fairly new concept of Reward Checking, with insured rates listed. These rates are often higher than Savings Accounts.
 
March 11, 2009 - I removed all public mention of the previously ranked #1 company off of my website. The company is moving on to the next stages and has recently requested privacy from all members. Things are going very well there, and joining is only possible by private invitation now.
For the past few days, I've been receiving a crap load of e-mails from many people on one program, AffordableAffiiliates. I checked out the e-mails, website, and forums. Because of the high momentum of members participating, I joined about 5 days ago. The owner has claimed to have a very strong eye for a decent revenue source, marketplace (eBay) investments of spotting & buying deals for low, then reselling high. I often resell in marketplaces myself so I understand much of what he does. The minimum is $100 and max $500. However, I'm still in the process of learning more about the owner and program.
 
March 04, 2009 - Again, please excuse me from my unusual delays. I was unlucky enough to get selected for a long jury duty case. Why?!! Anyways, I will definitely get to all messages!
 
February 25, 2009 - DRF Group is once again open to new members.
I'm juggling Jury duty for a probable 2 weeks. Please allow some extra time to hear back from me. Thanks.
 
February 14, 2009 - Major changes to the navigation of my website and title. All money making opportunities are now listed under "Money Opportuity Reviews". If you like or don't like the changes, let me know. I think it gives the website a much cleaner, easier to find, and compressed type of look.
 
February 12, 2009 - Though in it's early stages, as promised, a money saving tips section has been created. Click on the "How To Save Money" tab to the left, or http://flashbaq.com/moneysavingtips.aspx. The first of many topics is "Best High Yield Savings Account Rates that are Insured".
  
February 05, 2009 - As of 11:16PM EST today, I've caught up with all messages. If I didn't respond to your message, I must have missed it somehow. Contact me again.
I'm a foundation member in the TheDRFund Group, and I fell under Ken Russo, who is also a foundation member. We're both strong sponsors and marketers, so I feel I landed in a great place.
 
February 03, 2009 - New tab added to the left, for the company, The D R Fund. Read more on the page. Link will be posted here on February 04, around 9PM EST. Also, I'll be adding a tab for another company soon, known as TBA2.
 
January 23, 2009 - New "Popular Programs to Caution" tab added to the left. Also, the maximum stars for "Overall Rating" has been changed from 5 to 10. This allows me to give a better estimate.
 
January 18, 2009 - Minor changes made to the QLx3 tab and the "About me" tab.
 
Since I am a CLF member abiding by their new updates, I won't post new updates by the CLF staff here. If you are a member, please go into CLF forums and read Robert's latest posts for updates.
 
Things to come...
Much of my website reviews opportunities to help you make money, and I'll always continue to do that. However, I believe that educating yourself on how to better save money is just as valuable. The current economic condition of the world only further stresses this importance. The economy isn't so hot so if you have the money, yes, the time to Buy is now as many things are selling for less. That doesn't mean to waste money though. Soon, I plan to share a few saving tips you may not have not heard before or realized. More to come... For now, checking out the "Investment Strategies" tab would give you an idea of how to manage earnings, which is kind of like saving.
 
If time permits, I'm considering to add an important topic to this website soon (as a hobby and free service). I've had a recent urge to write about different elements of personal growth and somehow blend it into this website. After all, to grow financially, we must grow personally. I'm formulating ideas, my mind is stirring... Zzz Zzz Zzz
 
 
January 04, 2009 - Edited the "Investment Strategies" tab a bit to make it easier to read and understand.
 
December 31, 2008 - Making some changes to the navigation of the website today, and attempting to fix minor bugs. Ignore errors that you may see today. Have a Happy and Blessed New Year 2009!
 
December 14, 2008 - GMS is now private. I'm assuming it will be available to the public at a later time. I will keep you posted as to when if so.
 
December 11, 2008 - It's that time of the year when many of us are busy. I will be very busy for the next 2-3 days. If you send me messages, allow me more time to respond than usual.
 
December 10, 2008 - Thankfully, I just had my membership reinstated with QLx3 Much to read and a lot of news going on with the company right now, so I'll throw allowed updates when I can. I've made a few updates to that page but it's no where near done.
 
December 8, 2008 - I've heard that 8DailyForever is sending refunds to members not in profit, until funds run out, and by STP only. It's pretty rare for autosurf admins to do this. If you joined 8DF and lost money, send a short factual e-mail to Susan at eightdailyforever@yahoo.ca with your transaction details, e-mail, and 8DF ID in the subject line.
 
December 3, 2008 - Originally, I joined QLx3 back in February 2008. I wasn't a big fan for a couple of different reasons (the whole e-bullion crisis for one), so I quit a few months later. However, the company has been around for awhile and I've heard some recent good news. I think we have another solid company here with an exciting future. I'm hoping to have my membership status reinstated if allowed. Whether I'm allowed in or not, you should give QLx3 a look on your own time.
 
November 29, 2008 - GMS has stated that whenever the server and forums are down, you may go here for the latest updates: http://community.thesafelist.net/index.php
2nd, Due to some recent news at QLx3, I'm deciding whether or not to rejoin QLx3. I  am looking into NetVestFund.
3rd, I've often said that Autosurfs and HYIPs are very very high risk. We're entering the holiday seasons, where a lot of Autosurf and HYIP scams pop up around the holidays, and disappear around Christmas. So be extra careful about new programs that pop up. I usually join Autosurfs mostly for advertising purposes while earning incentives.
  
November 13, 2008 - Google Translate added for those with English language difficulty, Google Search added for those who would like to search this website, and 8DailyForever added under the Autosurfs tab.
 
November 11, 2008 - I made a good call quitting MyStuffGone about 2 months ago. As I've said about 2 months ago, though their website looked great, I originally joined to sell things more than to earn, but their marketplace service attracted no buyers. Put that on top off the lowering of returns announced about 2 months ago, and the lack of reply from the owners when asked about their income streams. One thing lead to another. They weren't getting much business and are now closed.
 
October 20, 2008 - Updated the "Investment Strategies" tab with new information and tips you might not have heard before.
 
October 17, 2008 - In spite of global economic concerns, 2008 is turning out to be a great year with the top companies. As of now, I'm looking into getting more details on a program a good friend plans to launch early to mid November. If the program is set up right with a lot of care, it should go well. Stay tuned.
 
October 2, 2008 - I'm looking at a couple of opportunities to review, so stay tuned. Most of the opportunities I come across get thrown right out the window and I don't even bother listing a negative review for it here. Why not? Because adding the millions of scam programs out there would bring so much clutter to this website, you'd get lost. So I try to hit the high-points when it comes to reviewing.
When I come across a fishy, yet popular program, chances are that I'll review and list the program accordingly, with ratings tending towards the negative side. This is done to warn & possibly save you money on fishy programs you've probably heard of, or have already joined.
When there is an opportunity worth your time and money, popular or not, I will review and list it accordingly. This is done to earn you money. I feel the above strategy is the best approach to help you find what you're looking for from here, honest and quality information on money making opportunities. Yes, some of you are also here looking for those offers I throw out at times, lol =). That's completely fine. Whatever puts more money in our pockets. I love sending money.
 
September 14, 2008 - I've decided not to join WWLC, a new popular program: http://columbusga.bbb.org/WWWRoot/SitePage.aspx?site=79&id=55a27993-55f6-47dd-b47d-21a3d683622d&art=6775. Not only that, but I've heard that the company has a new owner. As I've mentioned earlier, I really don't feel it's a great opportunity. I've had many of the same assumptions that the BBB have recently posted. Weighing risk vs reward, though it may just be $100 to join with 2 downline members, it's not worth the time with the newly released updates. Anyways, some will still promote WWLC, so just do your due diligence. For now, I'm skipping and focusing on Nutronix.
(P.S.This is my personal opinion and I have no crystal ball on whether or not WWLC will do great in the future.)
 
August 11, 2008 - Very impressed with the steady increase in Alexa rankings. This website was created in February 2008.  Since then, Alexa.com traffic rankings have raised from millions to 210,000. Thanks for the support everyone!
 
July 3, 2008 - V-Lane Traffic's website is going fast again. I may not be able to respond to e-mails, calls, and PMs from July 6 to 8. I will be out-of-state.
 
June 12, 2008 - Ratings added to each company (at the top of each page).
 
June 8, 2008 - Back from vacation.  It seems like I have a lot of things to catch up on! V-Lane is going through a server change. MyBerryTree has made a lot of enhancements.
 
May 30, 2008 - From May 31st to June 8th, I will be away on vacation.  So chances are that I will not be able to reply to any messages until June 8th.
 
May 28, 2008 - New design to website.
 
May 13, 2008 - I added a new Private Opps tab, Strategies tab, and Partners & Sites tab.
 
May 12, 2008 - As of 12:01/EST, May 12th, V-Lane will be open to the public. You may put your banners back out, etc.  Remember to be a REAL sponsor to your downline and take care of them!! Just within the past week or so, the Alexa.com rankings of V-lane reached 20,000! In case you didn't know, Alexa is a public tool that measures how much traffic a site gets.
 
April 12, 2008 - As time permits, here's a list of things to do and possible things to come on this   website:  Add some toys (perhaps a chat box and a forum), add 2 more good opportunities, an additional MyBerryTree offer, and fill out detailed information on new programs I've added.
 
April 1, 2008 - I've researched many marketing, advertising, investment, and finance opportunities, but I feel only a handful of them are worth discussing. There just aren't many great online opportunities out there, but there are a few. Just be careful what you join and do your research.
 
March 15, 2008 - Advice for the year: Remember that greed & lies are extremely overused and competitive tactics in business & marketing, but honesty is not. In time, people will value working with you much more if you just choose to be honest. You only have one reputation.
 
March 2, 2008 - Every once in awhile, I will throw out deals on this new page.  This is my gift to you for staying updated with my website.  Here's the deal for today: For TODAY and TOMORROW ONLY, I'm willing to fully cover a Senior Director autoship for prospects & members that join my Nutronix downline ($500 value).  Google other reviews and contact me!
