It’s Time for a New Layout!

Posted by Yours Truly in Insights

Had a little time off so I went and changed the layout of the theme more to my liking. The format remains the same however the colour scheme and wider areas allow for more content as well as advertising. Best part of the layout is definitely the calendar date post and the huge RSS feed button to the top right. Furthermore, the Ferrari Enzo is now replaced with my dream vehicle, a Porsche 911 Turbo.

Is the new design scheme a hit? Can’t tell yet but from preliminary suggestions, it sure will be!

Say Farewell To the U.S. Dollar? (For Now)

Posted by Yours Truly in Insights

US Currency Is Dropping Fast Thanks to Bernake

The Federal Reserve’s interest rate 50 basis point decision drop has come and gone and even though the impact on the financial markets has been substantial, many are pondering how will this affect fellow Canadians and Americans traveling north of the boarder? The past week has marked various milestones in the global markets:

  • The U.S. Dollar has plummeted to an all-time low against the Euro by breaking through the key 1.40 barrier.
  • The Canadian Loonie approached parity with the U.S. currency for the first time in 31 years.
  • Gold has hit a 28-year high as dollar sinks reaching $735.85 today, with the likelihood of $800 by years-end a favourable outcome.
  • Crude Oil is hovering below record highs after U.S. inventories fell more than expected and as the threat of a storm gathering near Florida reignited supply concerns.




The Canadian Case:

The loonie, which has been gaining on its American counterpart since bottoming out below 62 cents in early 2002, has recently been on a spectacular run, up from 95 cents at the start of September and from under 90 cents last spring and its recent ascent is mainly caused by the surprised large cut in interest rates. Soaring demand for Canadian commodities, ranging from oil and wheat to coal, gold, nickel and zinc – have helped propel the currency, while a weakening American economy has dragged down the greenback, the world’s most widely held and traded currency.

Advantages:

The high dollar may make U.S.-made goods cheaper to buy in Canada due to the rise in purchasing power and is a boon to Canadians traveling in the United States, especially cross-border shoppers and those looking to book winter vacations to Florida or Arizona. Those trips are suddenly much cheaper than they were a month ago. On the other side of that, importers will also win big as the costs of bringing goods into Canada gets cheaper, as will whole sellers – the “middle men” in the economy.

Negatives:

But the high loonie will continue to put pressure on domestic manufacturers, who have to try to sell goods south of the border at a discount or have been priced out of U.S. markets. Manufacturers such as lumber exporters, which have not had some insulation from commodity prices, and automakers will be particularly hard-hit, as the rising Canadian dollar makes exports less competitive at the same time that the shrinking U.S. housing market is making demand for housing weak. Tourism in Canada could also be affected, as travel to Canada becomes more expensive to Americans – a drop that will likely ripple through the hospitality industry. While the manufacturing sector has lost 289,000 jobs since late 2002, the economy has created more than one million jobs in resources, construction, services, health care, education and financial industries, leaving the national jobless rate at 30-year lows.

Forecast:

With only two more Federal Reserve rate decisions on the calendar, we expect 25bp rate cuts in October and December with another half point cut may not be entirely out of the question if economic data remains weak. This spells trouble for the U.S. currency however we are heading into unchartered waters with records being posted galore so we must proceed with caution even though the U.S. economy and currency look to be in the brink of disaster. The Canadian currency will definitely trade at a premium by years-end and, possibly sooner than expected; consumers will be in joy for the upcoming x-mas season.

How Much Is Your Blog Worth?

Posted by Yours Truly in Insights

Have you ever asked yourself that question? I didn’t until I stumbled upon other blogs which had this banner posted on their site specifically displaying the net worth of their blog. Nowadays you hear about major multinationals buying sites for millions and billions of (i.e. Google bought YouTube for 1.65 billion), it makes you wonder what fraction of that could you possibly make (just for shits and giggles, of course).


My blog is worth $1,693.62.

You Are The Worst dot Com’s Total Earnings To Date

Posted by Yours Truly in Insights




It’s been a great week long learning experience starting up this blog especially dealing with the difficulties of learning the Wordpress interface. I have had prior web designing experience so all things are coming together slowly and updates are becoming easy and breezy. As my blog’s intention is to attempt to show you, the reader, how to profit off the internet all the while being entertained with the latest news, it is my duty to list every Friday my earnings for the week.

I am still tinkering with the placement of the ads however from general feedback, the advertisements do not seem to bother most and the majority found the ads to neatly blend in with the content and layout. I still have not submitted my site to popular sites nor have applied any search engine optimization techniques and any marketing campaigns at the moment are non-existent as I am relying strictly on word-of-mouth referrals to generate traffic for the time being.

Items to be addressed in the next short while:

  • Fix RSS feeds issue.
  • Fix sidebar display error with Internet Explorer due to the MistyLook template’s unique layout.
  • Submit the website URL to popular search engines.
  • Add links after each blog entry for users to bump to popular social networking sites: digg, technorati, etc.
  • The most important issue would be writing more detailed articles dealing with money.

Total Payouts to Date Since September 9, 2007:




  • AuctionAds: $25.00
  • Google Adsense: $4.62
  • Bidvertiser: $3.81
  • Text Link Ads: $0.00
  • AGLOCO: 7 Signs-Ups to date
  • Grand Total: $33.43

I expect this number to dramatically improve as traffic and the site grows complementing an effective affiliate and marketing campaign. Stay tuned for regular continuing status reports on my earnings.

Furthermore, be sure to check out the “Make Money Online Now” tab at the top of the screen to begin your journey into capitalizing off the internet and feel free to leave comments and suggestions!

A Watch James Bonds Would Envy You For.

Posted by Yours Truly in Insights

Jaeger LeCoultre James Bond Aston Martin Watch

For those living “the good life,” potential Aston Martin DBS owners will now have the opportunity to remotely start their $330,000 sex-on-wheels with their time piece and more. Famed watchmaking company, Jaeger LeCoultre, just released their limited edition $35,000 AMVOX2 chronograph model boasting “over 200 parts to its casing and an equal number in the watch movement itself,” along with transponding electronics giving the owner the ability to lock, unlock, and remotely start their vehicle through their svelte wristwatch. Potentially millionaires take notice, your automobile of choice should be approximately 10 times the price of your current wrist watch.

All I have to say is that the watch is simply breathtaking however I will have to pass on this particular model and will wait for version 2.0 with the laser and flame-thrower add-ons.
