What’s your MP3 Player?

On my flight back to Manila, I noticed I’m missing my Creative Mp3 player. I almost depend on it for entertainment during my travels or even just going around the city.  I guess I left it in my aunt’s home, well, I really hope that’s where I left it coz it’s a gift from my youngest sister. Everyone in my family has player, my two sisters has an Ipod, my mom has an mp3 player and she loves it. 

For now, I have to check for a new player, compare features and prices… I would love to have an Ipod.

Making enough money?

As gasoline prices increase, everything else goes up with it, and often times commodity prices goes up faster than some people’s income. So what is to do? A lot would depend on borrowing from relatives and friends or on payday loan. And the most logical thing one would do is to budget the expenses to get things to fit in the income. While it is true that one should make a plan on where the hard earned income would go, it is not always working to just do that. 

What if the expenses at its most stripped down cost, like the basic needs for food, shelter and clothing, plus utility bills, cell phone load and others is more than the money you make? 

The best thing to do is to find means to make extra income, and earn more, to be able to buy the things you need and want. A lot of opportunities are out there to make it happen, one can take an extra job part time, or buy and sell items like gadgets or just whatever you would enjoy selling.   

My sister for instance would go to a mall where there are pre-owned mobile phones are for sale.  She would go around and see what’s on for sale, negotiate for a low price after testing the item and buy it. She would then use the item to test it for herself and start selling it on ebay or post in a forum or classified ads, doing this, she makes an extra $200-$400 dollars a month.   

There really are a lot of ways to skin a cat in as much as there are so many ways to make extra money.  Simply decide to do it!

Have you been to a casino?

 I have! But I have never played though. My first time entering a casino was in 1997, around 10a.m but it was closed…I was there to pick up a check payment for the Golf Club membership the casino was buying from my company. I saw the machines and tables that I usually saw on TV or movies, and as I walked the carpeted hall, I sort of visualized how busy it must have been just the night before.  I could smell the fumes of the cigarette smoke, too. 

Times has definitely changed, casinos are no longer just found in a physical place with machines, tables and people who deal cards like, it is also now found on the net and one can bet at the comfort of their homes or wherever there is internet connection.  I saw one site called http://www.topusaonlinecasinos.com/ where they offer a lot of online games where you play with real money. I think one use credit card online to buy credits or something, instead of exchanging money for chips.

I wonder why people keep playing when they know casinos always makes money, meaning players don’t really win.Well, maybe some people do it for entertainment, but one must be careful not to get hooked and bet all that you worked hard for.
