I have pretty much broken every rule to this, I have spent my money. I have not been keeping track of what has been made. I think I am going to restart this project from the beginning. I have learned a lot thus far and hope to continue learning. I have a new project as well, it will encompass quite a few of my other projects. The link to my new project is listed in the links section. It

I have not posted to this blog in a long while. Many things have happened in the last few months. Some good, some bad, some amazing. I was working out of town for a while. The set up was terrible, my roommate was a drug dealer. The folks I worked with were up till 2 or 3 am yelling and screaming. After my first week I could not take it any more. I called my boss and told him the situation,

As I have written in a previous blog entry, I have been dabbling in the forex market a bit. I have decided to create a new blog dedicated to my experience with Forex. The goal of that blog is not to teach you, but to show you the ups and downs of trading the Forex Market. It is a brand new blog, so there are very few entries at this time. That will change, I am hoping I will be able to be

I apologize for not posting for so long. Things have been rather hectic the last week or so. Since June 16, 2008, I have been attempting to learn how to trade the forex market. Between work, the doubling project, learning forex, trading forex, writing in my blogs, I have been rather busy. I have easily been spending over 80 hours a week on these projects. It really is not something I would

With this being the last day of the month, I have decided to recap. So with no further ado here are my first month results.16 August 2008 - Read Penny Millions and The Rules. This experiment was started at this point.20 August 2008 - Found a dime in the drink machine at work. On the same day I was given a quarter, by my boss, for going to the vending machine for him. Total Stake = .3521 August

Bank of America has a referral program that pays a $25 dollar fee to both the referrer and the referred to open a new checking account. Before I go further, let me start from the beginning. Last night I visited my PayPal account and realized I had $43 in it. I had forgotten that I had it. So I decided to draw the money out. As I was trying to get the money out of paypal I realized that it was

In the last post I mentioned article marketing. Today I realized that I have not written anything about it. This is most definitely not a new idea nor one original to me. The idea came from another blog and he got the idea elsewhere as well. The basic idea is to write articles about different subjects with a link to make an income from. The main thing I like about this idea is the cost. It

I have spent time tonight reading some posts on other doubling sites as I do daily. But this time I spent a little longer than usual. I came across a lot of ideas. So many in fact that I got to a point of information overload. I was on Google searching all of the ideas that I had found and analyzing them and jumping back and forth between them needless to say that got me nowhere. It was at

My first article was submitted to Associated Content. I am currently awaiting an offer for that article. I will keep you updated as to when it is approved and what the offer was. I am really excited about Associated Content for the simple fact that it is thus far my only real business attempt that could possibly lead to a residual income. My head is not in the clouds tho I am aware that I may

My stake has increased. Two pennies were found outside of the grocery store yesterday. We were out of sugar so on my way in I decided to walk the sidewalk and check the drink machines. I found the pennies on the sidewalk in front of the drink machines. I spent quite a bit of time researching for my first article for Associated Content. I will update as to when it is published along with a

I work among a group of 5-12 people on a construction site. Often we are a long way from a store and I have noticed that most of the people I work with visit the drink machines on a daily basis when they have acces to one. An average of 8 drink are consumed by my fellow co workers everyday. I am going to start bringing cold canned drinks to work and sell them for 50 cents each. I can purchase

A while back I came across an incredible site. Associated Content. Associated Content is an incredible site. They pay you money up front for articles they also allow you to promote your websites etc within your material. They do state that the article must have a purpose other than self promotion. Anyway, I wrote an article for them a couple of years ago. My wife is an accomplished writer,

The first strategy or business to implement in this game is "Scrap Metal Removal Specialist". I know this is not very original there are others who did quite a bit of this in their early steps. Actually though, I had already started this before I read the Double to A Million Plan blog. I will be going a slightly different route as well. My job is at a construction site. There are many small

Many ideas have come to me since starting this blog. I have started to implement a couple of them but have not finished any as of yet. This post is just kind of to organize my thoughts and show where my thoughts are at the moment. 1. Collect scrap metal.2. Write articles for associated content.3. Sell canned soft drinks at work.Keep in mind I only have $1.05 so any of these could easily

Yesterday a good portion of the day was spent visiting the blogs of many like minded people. Maybe I am not as crazy as I originally thought. There are many others walking this path. One blog in particular really stood out and I spent hours reading his blog.Double to a million planThere were other blogs that stood out as well and as I have time I will go back and revisit them.

I started this experiment on the 16th of August 2008. This blog is just to get you up to speed on what I have accomplished thus far. On the 16th of August I read the rules on Penny Millions. I decided to join the experiment at that point. Everytime I went to a public place I would look for spare change. I had very little luck doing this at first. With no success for a couple of days I started to

In a previous blog I stated that the link to the rules would be forthcoming. Here is the link to a website called Penny Millions. The website is completely free and all of the information to get started is contained there. Penny Millions is not the actual plan I am following although it is very similar and a very helpful web site.The Rules are the actual ones I am following. It is an article by

This blog is a journal documenting an experiment I have recently gotten involved in. Have you ever heard the story of the little kid who tells his dad that he does not have to pay his allowance anymore? All the kid asks is that his dad pays him a penny and doubles it daily. The dad is more than happy to do this and is proud of his unselfish son. After 2 weeks he realizes that his son is a very
