Fish Make The Greatest Pets
by: Jennifer Shircel
Aren?t the children always begging for a pet or another pet?
You don?t want a cat ? there?s that whole litter box thing.
You don?t want to train a puppy, plus what about when you want to go away for the night?
Birds make such a mess and can be quite noisy.
And then there?s those ?rodent? things.
When we found out we were expecting our first child we decided to decorate the nursery in tropical fish decor.
Then we thought a fish tank in the room would be perfect for the ?white noise? and for a nice little night light.
So we bought a 10 gallon tank set that cost about $40 for everything but the fish.
We had no clue about caring for fish, so we only got a few fancy guppies that were about $3 each.
How cheap!!
Who knew we?d become addicted?
Well, me anyways.
We learned that guppies are live bearers, meaning that they have ?live? babies instead of laying eggs and they can be all sorts of pretty colors.
Needless to say, we learned a few things about raising guppies and haven?t spent any more money buying fish (well, except for a few more different colored guppies and a bigger tank to start breeding our own)!
Fish are so
easy to take care of and are rather inexpensive to keep.
We clean out their tank a little bit each month and spend about $2 on food for them that lasts about 3 months.
The kids all love the guppies ? their pretty colors and especially watching the babies grow.
I love the guppies because they?re cheap, relaxing, neat, quiet and they teach the children about responsibility with having a pet.
So before you jump down their throats about not having a pet, tell the kids to consider some guppies.

Five Reasons To Do Wireless Networking
Five Reasons To Do Wireless Networking
by: Guy Ames
I believe that wireless networks represent one of the most significant inventions in human history ? almost as important as sliced bread.
Now, seriously, bread is certainly easy enough to cut yourself, but try to wire up a network and you will think of this invention in a different way.
Just to make the whole picture clearer for you, let me give you five reasons why using a wireless network is definitely worth it.
Sharing Web Access
With wireless networking, you can easily and cheaply share one single Internet connection among different computers, without having to use more modems. If that wasn?t enough, you can even include new computers in your network only by using a wireless card and switching them on to have an immediate Internet connection! Not many wired networks would be able to do that.

Convince Yourself That You're Worth Selling
Convince Yourself That You're Worth Selling
by: ADD Coach Jennifer Koretsky
"Selling" is often considered a dirty word in the world of ADD Coaching.
Many people associate sales with smarmy guys in cheap suits who see dollar signs instead of people.
But selling is not about deceiving people, and it's not about taking advantage of them, either.
Selling your ADD Coaching services is not unethical.
Selling in ADD Coaching is about communicating to your potential clients how you can help, and why you're the right coach.
Believe In Your Product, Believe in Yourself
Any good sales person knows that the first rule of selling is believing in your product.
When you believe in the product and you believe that it's a good fit for a person, you sell the product to that person.
In ADD Coaching, you are the product.
So if you lack self-esteem or confidence in your coaching, you're in trouble!

How To Make Money On Ebay By Buying
How To Make Money On Ebay By Buying
by: Dan Lim
Most people think you got to sell on ebay in order to make money. However, there are other ways to make money on ebay other than selling. One secret way is buying. What do I mean? Read on.
That secret method is called ebay arbitrage.
The term arbitrage has been around for a long time. It is a technique used in the stock market by large players who search (with powerful computers in real time) for price discrepancies from one market to another. For example if they see dealers in London trading IBM stock at 1/8th
pt lower than in New York, even if it's only for a few seconds, they'll grab it at the lower price and sell it in New York where they'll make an 1/8th pt profit.
So how does that apply to Ebay?
The strategy is buying low in one central Internet market and selling in another more active market for a premium.
Ebay is a huge marketplace, and even though it...

Lagos, Portugal ? Casa Rosa and Joe?s Garage
Lagos, Portugal ? Casa Rosa and Joe?s Garage
by: Rick Chapo
If you?re a budget traveler or backpacking Europe, Lagos is a cheap slice of paradise. Casa Rosa is the place for general sustenance, while Joe?s Garage is a place to let go.
Casa Rosa
Casa Rosa claims to be the haven for backpackers in Lagos. The more you travel, the more you know such claims are rarely true. With Casa Rosa, however, I can confirm the claim is true. This hole in the wall served heaping mounds of the food of the day for really cheap prices. It was packed with backpackers, which made it a good place to meet people and exchange war stories.
I haven?t been to Portugal for four years, so I have to attach a caveat to recommending Casa Rosa. When I first visited Casa Rosa in the 1990?s, it was owned by a couple of Brits, who were apparently trying to sell it. I dropped in twice in subsequent years and they were still there and still trying to sell it. Whether...

Create Huge Income From Your Web Site - 10 Easy Ways
Create Huge Income From Your Web Site - 10 Easy Ways
by: Dennis Becker
The cost of setting up a web site is dirt cheap nowadays. You can register a domain for less than $2.00 as I write this (for .info domains). Hosting is also very cheap, and getting cheaper all the time.
So why are so many web sites springing up?
Obviously somebody's making money besides the hosting companies, so here's some idea starters for you:
1. Sell your own products or services. They should be related to your target audience. You want to be able to take credit cards (at least with PayPal if not otherwise) on your site and deliver your product to your customers as fast as possible.
2. Sell another company's products. There is no shortage of companies willing to drop ship items for you, all you have to do is make the sale and place the order with your fulfillment company, they do all the work, and you profit on the difference between their price...
