What is a grant? Money you never have to repay!

The short answer to this simple but fantastic question is that yes, free grants do in fact come at no cost to the recipient. That does not mean that there are no strings attached but we will talk about that later. First we need to get the basic concepts down first so that you can understand why the government is willing to hand out these monetary offerings to it’s citizens.

How does the government make its money? That’s right taxes. Taxes on property and income are the major money makers for good old Uncle Sam. So the government in order to make money has to have citizens who number one make money and number two own property. We all know that the only way to make money is to have money, so it makes sense that the government would want to provide this impetus (money in the form of free grants) to people in relatively small amounts, in hopes that people will turn this into large amounts of profit. If this happens everybody wins!

So the only stipulation for eligibility for these free grants is that they will be used in specified ways that will create revenue for the recipient and in so doing for the government. Examples of grant uses are small business grants, housing grants for down payments, real estate grants to improve existing buildings and areas to attract consumers, public housing grants, education grants, and the like. All in hopes of stimulating the economy.

The next important thing to know is that there is more money available than is being handed out and so there is no shortage and you are almost guaranteed money if you make the appropriate application. Perhaps the only difficulty is learning how and where to apply. This information is available for free but is (because it is government run) very unorganized and messy. The best way to learn about free grants that are available is to purchase (for a relatively small fee when compared to the profit it will bring) lists that different companies have organized that have all the information that you need. You simply get the list and look in the areas that apply to you, apply, and once accepted receive the money and go to work.

They say money doesn’t grow on trees, but I think you can grow it on something even better! Your home computer. To make your money tree grow, you will need to give it a home and a place to grow. You can do this by creating your own website.  Here are some basics steps to creating your own website:

After reading this article, check out the blog we used to plant and grow our tree.

1.Pick a domain name. Make sure the name relates well to the information on your website. If you can, make it short and easy to remember.

2.Create your web site using a web site creator, hand coding your own html, or a combination of both.  Note: Don’t freak out if you are not technical.  You can accomplish this easier with a blog.

3. You will need to sign up for a hosting account to get your website online.   Learn more about the hosting platform we use for our blogs.

Next you will need to plant the money tree seed by developing your product so it can grow:

1.The fastest and easiest way to create a product to sell on your new web site is to create a information product (e-book, audio, etc.). Its very low cost or free to create, and everything is automatic and electronic. That means there is no overhead and no products to ship!

2.You may also want to consider borrowing some seeds while you make your own. You can do this but signing up with other companies that sell information products and selling their products for a commission. This is a great way to get started and test the markets to see whats selling. You also build relationships with companies and that very well could be a marketing advantage after you finish your product.  This is called affiliate marketing and a great way to get started until you have your own product. You can check out places like clickbank.com to get the idea.

Finally you will need to nourish your tree by watering it with traffic.

There are three main way to get traffic to your website

1.Your can buy traffic through sites like google. With this method you pay each time someone searches for your key words and they click on your link to your site. This is not recommended in the very beginning because it is so competitive and has the potential to be very costly.

2.You can email the mailing list you have made over time. Send out a promotional email and and get your previous traffic coming back. Just be careful not send out too many, or they will become annoyed and turned off to all your other emails.

3.Partner up with your competition. You can get your competitors to send out your promotional emails by offering them a commission. Your competitors can become one of your best assets!

4. Write articles and submit them to article directories like Ezine.com, Goarticles.com etc.

Maintain your tree by watering it with plenty of traffic, and give it plenty of love by updating your blog OFTEN!  

Note:  Just like a real tree, this will not grow overnight!  It takes time and effort to cultivate your blog just like nature takes time with a tree!  However, just like a tree, once it is growing up it is a beautiful and fruitful thing!

It probably did not take you more than a second to answer that question—YES! We all want free money, don’t we? But how can we get free money?

Well, if you are looking for free money to use for college and university tuition and fees, you are more likely to find it than those of us who are just looking for free money. Check out websites and programs such as FAFSA and GovernmentGrants.com to find free grant money. You can also check out websites and programs such as FreeCollegeScholarships.net, FastWeb.com, and FedMoney.org that offer free money in the form of scholarships. The great thing about these options is that you are almost guaranteed to get some amount, even if it is not as high as you would like, of free money to use towards your college or university tuition and fees. All you have to do is fill out an application, maybe write an essay or two, and wait.

Now, for the rest of us, free money likely does not exist. There are programs, however, that claim to give you free opportunities to make money such as reading emails or advertisements, taking surveys, downloading a certain tool bar onto your browser, etc. For websites and programs like that check out CashFiesta.com, FreeCenter.com, and AbsolutelyFreebies.com. However, some websites like these require that you pay a registration or startup fee (low, albeit, but still, that is not free, is it?) or fill out all kinds of applications such as for credit cards which can lead to unwanted credit cards, spam in your email, junk in your snail mail, and all kinds of other inconveniences.

So, for those of us not trying to find free money to use for college and university tuition and fees, finding free money is going to be a little more difficult.

If you save money, the money will save you!

The problem with most peoples finances today is that they are not getting enough income to satisfy their needs and wants. People are naturally going to buy things they want even if it means spending more than they have (credit cards), and they know in the back of their minds that they cant afford it, but they will get it anyway. I think people will develop their own budgeting scheme when their income meets their wants then they will be budgeting masters, all by their selves. But till then there will ALWAYS be people in debt no matter how much you preach!

I think a solution to some people’s money problem is to teach them how to make extra money first, and then teach them how to budget and save it. Americans really don’t want that much; it is the hobbies that get people in trouble, bills, spending too much on golf clubs, car parts, computers, things around the house etc.

I don’t know about you but this is how I feel about life. Working a 9 to 5 made me sick and tired of being sick and tired. I did not want to be stuck knowing that I will be ‘working’ for the rest of my life, taking orders from bosses, putting up with BS and other peoples attitude, having to get up in the morning when I want to sleep in and that fear of getting fired. I was in that situation but recently was able to leave it.  I started out part time but was able to work my way into a home career. There are people right now making well over $20,000/monthly working for their selves and they are everyday people that you see walking their dog, in supermarkets or even that person arguing with the McDonalds cashier. If these people ever do go back to work for someone else they can do it “stress free” even if the job is stressful (think about that).

Before, you can work for yourself you have to decide one thing: If you really want that responsibility. If you said yes, you have gotten over the biggest hurdle and you will not be limited to the income your employer is giving you. I know what I am about to say will be over simplistic but I will save the details for you to research on your own. Here is a breakdown

1st: determine if you really want self-employment

2nd: decide what area of business you want or good at.

3rd: If step 2 requires money, their are program out there that can help you get started in internet business, selling or something else before you start in what you want to do.

For example, “I want to own a photography shop but it costs $10,000 to get started. Well, if I sell product A for a year I can do it”. You never know, whatever you get into before your dream business may make you $50,000 a month and you may forget all about that photography shop. I can help you here too.

4th Research, research and do more research. Find out what you competition is. Find out how much money they are making. Find out where they are advertising. Find out what it takes to get started. Find out where your customer are etc, etc, etc..research
5th EXECUTE!! I mean once you have confidence go do it.

They say that 90% of home businesses fail for the first time. And you may fail, but all you have to do is try and try again, please don’t give up. Believe me, you will get it right and when you do, you will be very successful. The percentage of people who fail for the second and third time is much lower than the first timers. Well sorry to talk yall half to death, I can go on and on about this stuff.

If you want to make money online and are looking how to start or how to jumbstart your business, take a look at the tools discussed Blog To Make Money or our Make Money Page.

Credit Repair and Managing Your Credit

As a consumer you’ve learned the importance of establishing a good credit rating with your lenders. Whether you are shopping for a new home or auto, or searching for the best deals on insurance, your credit worthiness will be judged by your credit rating or credit score.

A bad credit history or bad credit habits will place “black marks” on your credit profile. These include things such as late payments, having an account assigned to a collection agency, and of course bankruptcy.

Establishing good credit habits and therefore a good credit rating will improve your credit worthiness. This will be reflected in potential lenders offering you substantially lower interest rates and better deals on credit offers.

Here are 4 tips to help you create a shining credit profile:

1) Pay Your Bills On Time

Lenders only have your past payment history on which to decide the type of credit risk you present to them. How you pay off your debts now indicates to them how you will pay off future debts.

2) Don’t Use Too Many or Too Few Credit Cards

How much is too much ? How little is too little ? Many credit experts and financial planners suggest two to four credit cards is just the right mix.

3) Pay At Least The Minimum Due

Always pay at least the minimum due payment, but never less. And remember, just paying the minimum payment means it will take you years and years to pay off that credit card.

Example: Paying off a $2,000 credit payment at 18% APR with a minimum monthly payment of 2% ($40 dollars or less) will take you 30 years to pay off the amount plus interest.

4) Review Your Credit Report Regularly

Monitor your credit report from all three major credit bureaus – Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax – on a regular basis. Check your credit profile at least annually. Review it carefully and make sure that any past mistakes or disputes have been corrected.

Also, if you notice an account listed that you know that you have not personally opened, contact that creditor and the credit bureaus immediately. This could be a sign that you’ve had your identity stolen. Request to have a fraud alert placed on your profile and account to protect yourself and your credit. Identity theft is the fastest growing consumer crime in America, with an estimated 1 million people victimized each year.

Establish good credit habits early in life and reap the benefits that your good credit rating will provide you for the rest of your financial future.

Save Money Tips

The average American spends over $2000 a year on gas alone. Gas and fuel is a billion dollar industry. How can we save on gas? There are the usual tips offered to you such as keeping you vehicle well maintained, changing your oil regularly, using public transportation, packing light and combining all your errands into just one trip daily. Unfortunately, obeying these procedures still doesn’t save you enough cash.

Another less known but highly effective opportunity to save is to apply for a gas credit card. There are many benefits of a gasoline credit card that can aid in the amount that we spend solely on gas. Most gasoline credit cards offer cash back and discounts, convenience, reward programs, and a great way to build or rebuild your credit history.

Some gas credit cards offered by well established companies such as Chase, Visa, MasterCard, or Hess offer cash back and discounts on gas purchases which can add up throughout the year to save you big bucks.

Signing up for a gas credit card can also bring you all the conveniences of any regular credit card. You can use them anywhere that accepts credit cards and you don’t have to carry cash around for your big purchases anymore. Most gas stations now even have express lanes where ONLY direct payment or gas cards are to be used. Now that is what I call convenience!

We’re all pretty familiar with earning points for specific stores when we shop at their locations. With most gasoline credit cards, you can earn points wherever you use your card. Earn points and treat yourself to a prize reward, or better yet, redeem them for cash off your gas bill!

What if you have a bad credit history? Gasoline credit cards are a better option than bank credit cards for this purpose because gasoline credit cards have a higher approval rate. Applying for a gas credit card is definitely a good choice for anyone who might have a bad credit history and wants to save on gas.

Once you have decided that you want a gas credit card, applying is easy! Compare credit cards online, then fill out a safe, secure application.

Your Life and Credit Repair

Repairing your bad credit is never easy, but there are solutions that can help you get out of debt. Everyone has bills and sometimes bills can get out of control. Because paying your bills is an ongoing process, the best possible solution when you are in trouble is by asking for help and working to get your debt under control.

Since new laws make it difficult for consumers to restore their credit rating, it might seem impossible to get out of trouble. However, under the law it is possible to get all three of your credit reports free of charge.

If you have a poor credit history, you should request copies of your credit reports to be certain that there are no mistakes or false charges. If you do find erroneous claims on your credit report the first thing you should do is file a dispute against the claims. This will likely delay your payments and if you are found not to be responsible for the debt it can free you from it all together.

Contact the agencies as soon as possible if you notice any invalid accounts or incorrect claims that are not your responsibility. For your convenience, Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax all have dispute hot lines available.

Disputing can be one step toward repairing your credit. Most of the information listed on credit reports is from banks, credit card companies, utilities providers, legal judgments, etc. Typically, that information remains on your credit report for at least 7 years. Positive ratings often remain on your report for 10 years. Tax liens will remain on your credit report for 15 years and bankruptcies will remain on your credit report for 10 years. That is why it is important to dispute any credit claims that are on your report that are not yours.

The bureaus will investigate, and if they find in your favor, the debts will be erased from your credit report. For this reason, it is very important to keep track of your credit report, and view it on a regular basis. You also have the ability to view your credit score from the reports so that you can see how it has been affected by your report.

If you find claims against you that you are responsible for, but don’t know how to fix, you should educate yourself.

Do not believe it when credit repair companies assert that they can remove items from your credit report and lower your monthly payments. The government watches most of these agencies and the government has been given reason to believe that some of these agencies have misled customers.

Most of these companies are only looking to cheat you, all the while putting you at risk of further damaging your credit. If you need help or support with your credit then it is easy and sensible to consult counselors at the National Foundation for Credit Counseling. The representatives are highly trained in helping consumers find a legal way to improve their credit, and get out of debt, while keeping the creditors at bay.

Make sure that you know your rights if you are looking for ways to repair your bad credit. It is still possible to overcome bad credit, and build good credit again.

You are not alone, and there are places that you can turn. The Consumer Response Center is another great resource for learning about your rights. There are some cases where you have more rights than you might realize. Victims of Identity Theft or Military Personnel that have had their identities stolen often have more rights than people who simply fail to pay their bills.

Knowing your rights and where to turn for help is the first step in repairing your bad credit.

Save Money Tips & Make Money

Martha was having a restless night. The other day she got a billing statement from her credit card company that told her she was behind schedule on her monthly payment.  She also felt harassed every time a debt collector would call her at the office and at home, sometimes even in odd hours of the night.   They were also having troubles paying the mortgage and the monthly installments on the new car. Their financial woes are partly due to her husband Ben, who himself admits being a big spender.  Ben is an avid car enthusiast who spends a lot of money to “spice up” their Japanese car and make it look like one of those street racers in the movie, “Too Fast, Too Furious.”

The money problems have become so big that both Ben and Martha now experience enormous stress and anxiety every single day.  Due to their financial difficulties, they now quarrel a lot and exchange the blame for falling into the debt trap.  It is no wonder that money is now one of the leading causes of divorce.

Money, or more appropriately, the lack of money is one of the main reasons for stress and anxiety in marriage.  In the United States, the average household has at least $9,200 in credit card debt. The Bens and Marthas hardly know about the strategies and techniques to gain financial success.  The common mistake among hard-pressed couples is spending more than they make.  Lack of discipline in the use of  credit cards also leave many people enslaved to making payments to settle both the principal loan and   interest fees.

We all face different challenges and pressures about money. It can be really overwhelming to face these financial problems if nothing is done about them early on.   Because of the constant demands to meet our day-to-day living expenses, it also becomes the leading cause of stress and anxiety that can eventually  ruin your emotional and physical well-being.

But money should really help us improve our lot and not make our lives miserable. In order to lessen the pressure brought about by financial problems, it may be helpful to read and consider the following financial management advice:

First, develop a realistic budget. This is the very first step you need to take to regain control over your finances . Make a list of all the money you owe or bills to pay — then decide to pay them one by one based on your fixed paying capacity. Also, it is good to make a list of all other sources of income. The next step is to write  down all your “fixed” expenses like mortgage, rent, car payments, electricity, credit cards, and insurance premiums. After that, determine just how much money you have left to know exactly how much you have left to spend on other things. It is important to stick to your payment schedule and not create other payables before you finish paying for the priority accounts. It is highly recommended to keep  a small notebook that you can use to list down all your expenses.  With the small notebook, you can track where your money goes. In addition, using a computer budgeting program can be a helpful tool for balancing your checkbook.

The second step is to teach your kids about money matters. Children nowadays are easily lured by commercials and advertising gimmicks. With peer pressure and the constant barrage of fads, children may end up losing their allowance to some things that they don’t really need.  It is never too late to teach kids about money matters.  They must be told how hard it is to earn money and that not everything they see in the toy store or on television should or can be bought for them. Children around eight years old can already be trained to manage their allowances and to start their savings.

Another step towards financial freedom — believe or not — is to contact your creditors.  Explain your situation to them and ask them to restructure your loans.  Ask them to present an option for debt consolidation but make sure that the interest rates are manageable and the monthly payments are withing your capacity to pay.  Also, try to convince your creditors to design a modified payment scheme that will lead to a win-win financial situation. 

Cost-cutting measures should also be an automatic undertaking if you want to regain financial freedom.  You can save money by doing simple things like turning off the lights when not using it… scheduling your trips or errands to the grocery stores… or simply cutting down on junk food purchases. All these will help in lowering your monthly expenses. One sure way to cut down costs is to lessen your spending on entertainment.  For example, you can stop that magazine subscription or choose a cheaper cable program with less channels.

After you have enough savings, you may choose to consult a financial advisor regarding investment options and instruments such as mutual bonds and stocks.

Your financial situation shouldn’t go from bad to worse. You have options and you can take control of your money.  But regaining your financial freedom will depend on your  goals and how disciplined you are in achieving those goals.

The key to financial freedom and debt-free living rests entirely on you. Being free from debt is, after all, a big stress relief.

 You can turn things around.  You can fix your credit and you can make extra income online if that is what you desire.
