You know how I wrote this morning about wanting to get some money put away for my future. Just working a 9-5 type of job the rest of my life isn't going to do that. I'm looking into ways that I can cash in on the Internet and I've found a book that may just help me do that. Jeremy Palmer of QuitYourDayJob.com has written an ebook called High Performance Affiliate Marketing, an affiliate handbook packed with tips on how to generate income as an Internet affiliate.

Jeremy claims he made over $1,000,000 last year. While I probably wouldn't want to invest the time and energy it would take to make that kind of money, it would be nice to get enough extra income coming in where I wouldn't have to go work a second retail job until I retire.

Marcus and I got really tired of our bikes being in the living room, so he decided to get a rack to hang them in the laundry room. To do this, I had to move Skippy's food out to the dining room. In the long run, this will be good because he keeps falling on that long linoleum trip through the kitchen to the laundry room and then he can't get up. In the short term, the poor dog is totally confused as to why the laundry room door is shut and so he just keeps standing in front of it waiting for it to open. Silly dog. I hope he finds his food and water soon.

Managing my money has never been one of my good traits. In fact, I'm horrible at it. As I'm getting older, I really need to find ways to improve my financial health and get something put away for my old age. I found a new site that may be able to help. MoneyManager.com is a growing site that offers articles on reducing expenses, growing money and reducing debt. I am doing one thing right, though. In the "Cars: Managing a Depreciating Expense" article, I am making the most out of my car purchase. I bought used and I plan on keeping it long after its paid off. Since it is a Subaru that will not see any pizza driving action, I should get MANY years out of it.
