Last time, we discussed the basics of building a small business to augment your retirement fund. To recap, we discussed the requirements for starting a biz: time, capital, research, and balls. I assume that I didn’t have to say that like getting a part-time gig, you’ll also need to put in work into any business venture. Now for this income-boosting episode, we’ll discuss another law of commerce: the Laws of Economics. I know, I know. I’ve been throwing all these important-sounding laws around. Here are the two reasons why learning the laws of Economics are important: you’d need to keep them in mind while you’re choosing the kind of small business you want to go into; and while you’re in the process of pricing your products.
How I Discovered Internet Marketing

I’ve been constantly searching for a way to earn money online since I discovered the Internet. At first, I was logging on to the Internet for school research. Somehow, I stumbled upon information that tells me I can work online. The offer was tempting, all I have to do is to pay a certain fee and then start doing simple typing assignments. I will get paid in dollars and that time, the dollar exchange rate was starting to sky rocket. The best thing is that I get to set my own schedule and I can work full time at home. It’s everyone’s dream to be able to stay at home and work, you don’t have to worry about traffic or getting up early anymore. So I got hooked to the offer, I signed up and logged in to the site.

Thoughts are pretty much like falling stars; they occur almost always randomly, they are there then they aren’t, and most people think there is some measure of wonder in them. The fleetingness of random thoughts is where its magic holds, I think, and for that reason Rica and I have resolved to record some of our random thoughts. It may be so we can alleviate some of the boredom (meaning we’re attempting to convince ourselves that our lives are not boring in our heads at least), so we can put some seemingly pointless thoughts in order to find some sort of pattern in our mental processes, or maybe it’s so we can try to invent a sort of magic for ourselves. At any rate, we’ve collected our random thoughts for the week (the ones we could catch) and posted them here.
For those who haven’t seen scanlations of chapter 63 of La Corda D’oro (Kiniro no Corda), you shouldn’t read this post. This is my spoiler alert. You have been warned.
In this episode of the Yuppie Guide, we’ll discuss something that most yuppies consider going into for extra income. There are several ways with which to go about setting up a small business and there are several kinds of small businesses you can try out. That said, we’ll limit each option to 500 words and post it in parts so you don’t have to contend with ginormous walls of text. First things first; what is a small business?
Yuppie Replay: StarCraft

Ever since Blizzard announced that they will be developing the long, long awaited sequel to StarCraft, I’ve sworn to replay the original game and the expansion, Brood War to refresh my memory. I just finished the replay and I was blown away again. It’s been a while since I first finished the real-time strategy game, and it’s also been a while since I last wrote about video games so please bear with this fangirl. Anyway, on to the replay.

I’ll admit, I thought I was all set for Valentine’s Day with the Rom-Com and Classics post but as random brain farts don’t usually follow a schedule, I’ll write this down now so my brain can get over what my friend Lei calls Barfintimes Day. Despite popular belief, Valentine’s Day isn’t only for lovers; it’s for singles too. It’s that time of the year when the phrase “singled out” takes a whole new different meaning. Attached friends look upon you with pity, and whatever you say can and will be taken against you and translated as bitterness. People like me however, delight in the communal misery as it is so much better than the “just you” kind of misery which ironically, can come with breaking up.
Yuppie Replay: Rom-Coms and the Classics

In light of the coming Hallmark-inspired non-holiday, I’ve busted out several sappy DVDs for a special singleton Valentine movie marathon. For the purposes of this marathon, I’ve decided to divide my viewing equally between the Rom-Com movies (romantic comedies) and the Classics. Arguably, the Rom-Com movies I have lined up can also be considered classics in their own right, but let’s not get into semantics.
