			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m obviously not an expert on the economy but seriously this does make a lot more sense than whatever Obama is trying to do. Right now Obama is putting through a few &quot;stimulus&quot; packages and other bills to &quot;stimulate&quot; the economy. Here&#8217;s what I don&#8217;t understand.</p>
<p>The people with money are the ones that are spending it. We&#8217;re taking money away from them.<br />
The people without money are the ones that are either:</p>
<ul>
<li>Spending it foolishly. Such as a 1.5 million dollar house on 40K/year job</li>
<li>Just don&#8217;t make enough to buy beyond essentials</li>
<li>Soaking up welfare because they can.</li>
</ul>
<p>The easiest way to get our country out of a recession (once again, in my opinion) is to stimulate the economy with everyone making more personal money &#8211; and then spending that money for themselves. Not taxing them. Taxing people will do nothing but piss everyone off, while attempting to solve a very longterm problem with a shortterm solution.</p>
<p>&quot;But Rob, where the hell are they going to get the money if they don&#8217;t raise the taxes&quot;. Here&#8217;s what I propose.</p>
<p>Lower everyone&#8217;s taxes a third. That means if you&#8217;re currently taxed 30%, you get it lowered to 20%ish. This will help give everyone more money back, and will put enough money in people&#8217;s pockets to pay for more items. I&#8217;ll give you a hint &#8211; the reason people can&#8217;t pay for a house they qualify for is mostly because of either one of two things.</p>
<ul>
<li>First: the broker qualifies them too high. This sucks, but happens.</li>
<li>Second: The taxes lower them under the required monthly, where it&#8217;s either mortgage or food.</li>
</ul>
<p>What the US Government <strong>should</strong> do is legalize weed. I forget which site had it &#8211; but it was a major news outlet &#8211; that stated that Weed has a projected 1.5 <strong>BILLION</strong> dollars in taxes a year if they legalize and tax it <em>in California alone</em> . Imagine if it was nationwide? That&#8217;s at <em>least</em> 50 billion dollars of annual revenue off of weed taxes alone.</p>
<p>So let&#8217;s do the math.</p>
<ul>
<li>50 billion dollars of annual revenue from legalizing weed.</li>
<li>Lower everyone&#8217;s taxes a third which still stimulate buying in the economy</li>
<li>&#8230;Profit</li>
</ul>
<p>This is a very simple way to fix it, and personally &#8211; I&#8217;d like to stop seeing my taxes go up. Not only that, but paying 30% when I&#8217;m under 60K is damn rediculous especially when I know there are people abusing <em>my money </em> with government handouts. &#8216;Nuff said.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the things I&#8217;ve been studying lately is the effect of certain incoming anchors on each other. In other words, an incoming anchor text of &quot;super duper widgets&quot; and &quot;blue fuzzy widgets&quot; may actually help you rank for the term &quot;widgets&quot; as well as the others. Maybe the exact opposite is able to be done as well?</p>
<p>If you have 2 incoming anchors for &quot;widgets&quot; and one for &quot;blue widgets&quot; maybe you&#8217;ll begin to rank for &quot;fuzzy blue widgets&quot;. I know this is a common theme when it comes to keyword densities, the LSI model, etc &#8211; however most people don&#8217;t relate this to incoming anchors as well &#8211; and they need to.</p>
<p>Another factor that most people aren&#8217;t taking into account is the ability to target multiple keywords in your anchors via commas. I&#8217;m currently doing testing with this and so far it seems to actually work pretty darn well.</p>
<p>Anyway, that&#8217;s just my thought of the moment. Have fun.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Since I&#8217;ve been fortunate enough to actually have my side income go up almost 100 fold in the last 30 days, I&#8217;ve found myself looking for another way to save it properly. Yes, it would be a lot easier to just go and buy a brand new 50&quot; LCD with the money among other things, but I&#8217;m trying to actually save for more longterm goals and put a big down payment on a house. So with great pleasure, I give you 3 places to recycle money smart during a recession.</p>
<p>The main point that people need to remember that there&#8217;s a difference between a savings account, and a high yield savings account. I&#8217;m not talking about a money market account. I&#8217;m talking about a real high yield savings account that is FDIC insured. So let&#8217;s kick off the three places with PNC Bank.</p>
<p>
<strong>PNC Virtual Wallet<br />
</strong> I checked out PNC&#8217;s Virtual Wallet about a week ago and I&#8217;ve actually signed up with them since. It works very simply in terms of a regular bank account. When you signup for the account you&#8217;re presented with three accounts through one interface. First is your &quot;checking&quot;. This functions exactly like a normal checking account. Second is your &quot;short term savings&quot; which is kind of like a &quot;I don&#8217;t need these right now but I will in a month&quot;. I believe this middle account earns 1% interest. Finally there is the last account which is the actual savings account which should be your primary focus.</p>
<p>This last savings account earns 3% interest on any amount up to $25,000. After you pass the $25,000 mark it drops to 1%. I did not notice any restrictions on total money for the middle account, so I&#8217;m assuming any excess money you leave in the middle account will continue to earn 1%. It also includes free billpay, a really cool feature called the money bar, and other unique features that most other banks don&#8217;t have. This is a great account overall for what I refer to as receive &amp; transition. <a title="PNC Virtual Wallet" href="https://www.pncvirtualwallet.com/" title="PNC Virtual Wallet">To learn more about the PNC Virtual Wallet, click here.</a></p>
<p></p>
<p><strong>FNBO Direct<br />
</strong> FNBO Direct is a company run by the <strong>F</strong> irst <strong>N</strong> ational <strong>B</strong> ank of <strong>O</strong> maha. This is my primary high yield savings account for longterm growth. Advertising (as of right now) a 3.25% APY with free incoming wires (I haven&#8217;t noticed a single charge on ANYTHING with this account) this is great for longer term goals such as ones that are a year out. I&#8217;ve been using my account here for almost a year and the return based on interest literally stomps a regular bank account into the ground.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not going to lie. Although this is a tough time, when I first signed up for this account it was a 6.00% APY. Boy did I enjoy that. I want to stress this main point however, this is <span style="text-decoration: underline;">purely a savings account</span> . This is not for checking and/or billpay (although they do have features like billpay). <a title="FNBO Direct" href="https://www.fnbodirect.com" title="FNBO Direct">It&#8217;s definitely worth checking out.</a><br />
<strong></strong></p>
<p>
<strong>ING Direct<br />
</strong> ING is another one of those known banks but not many people notice that they have a Direct section. Boasting a 2.75% APY (and a 3.20% APY on a <span style="text-decoration: underline;">checking account</span> for over 100K) I had to put it in the list. The main reason I wanted to put it in the list was the 3.20% APY checking account. This would be great for a transition account for accepting paychecks and the like while deciding where to put it.</p>
<p>Sadly I don&#8217;t have an account with ING Direct so I can&#8217;t say too more about them, other than they&#8217;re highly recommended by a few of my friends. <a title="ING Direct" href="http://home.ingdirect.com/" title="ING Direct">Here&#8217;s the link for ING Direct.</a><br />
<strong></strong></p>
<p>
<strong>Overall</strong><br />
I know this list isn&#8217;t exactly huge or exciting, and for a lot of you I bet you didn&#8217;t learn a darn thing. However for some of you I hope I was able to help in some way. Also take note this is not a suckers overview and there are no affiliate links in this post at all. So enjoy the information and leave a comment if you wish. <img src='http://www.RobAdler.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One thing I&#8217;ve started to do is start my organic campaigns as if they were PPC campaigns. I start gathering my keyword lists, searching for daily/monthly searches, competition etc. This can be used in a few good ways, actually.</p>
<p>One way this can be used is old time arbitrage. Find a keyword with not a lot of results, decent daily searches, and competition on adwords etc. Yes, I said WITH COMPETITION. You&#8217;re going for organic, so take #1 for the term (or try for all top 10 spots) and run an arbi campaign. Better yet, sell advertising to those sites. They&#8217;ll take it, haha.</p>
<p>Think about how sweet the ROI on that would be. Organic traffic is all free so free to CPA is darn near 100% profit (hosting costs, domain costs etc &#8211; but those are pretty much non-existent). Even on a CPC basis that should get you .04-.05 a click if you&#8217;re lucky, and once again &#8211; organic searches. Just make sure you do it smart.</p>
<p>Right now I&#8217;ve done that with one of my niches, and I&#8217;m right now fluctuating between 14th and 5th spot for the main keyword. Tomorrow I&#8217;m adding more links and a few articles, hopefully will boost myself into the top 5 for good &#8211; or even top 3. I&#8217;ve started getting a taste of the income for this niche, and let me tell you &#8211; not bad for a small $10 investment a year! I&#8217;ve already made 10x that back in a week.</p>
<p>More to come!</p>
