Forget school, go straight to work! Bill Gates didn't even graduate college!

Did you know that there are a ton of billionaires out there who either didn't graduate college and some even high school? I just read this awesome quote by Bill Gates, "most people overestimate what they can do in a year, and underestimate what they can do in ten." That pretty much changed my life if I wanted to choose one quote for the end of the year.

Paying for school or taking out a loan to start a business?? Which is better? Aaahhhh!

I want to start a company that comes up with antibodies since I have a lot of precarious experience in the biotech world. I know that doing it "the right way" takes a ton of time and money but I am thinking that I might come out of school as not much of an independent thinker. So I think I'll just start my own company doing biochemistry research, a passion that has been growing on me. I don't think I could pull everything off in one year, but thanks to the wonderful zinger of a quote by Gates, In under 10yrs I think I could be on to something huge. Thoughts?

Tons of divorced people can't go wrong for a second chance!

I know it's not a very joyous occasion when someone gets divorced.. but in my town people like to work on their looks so they can be marketable again. Especially the cougars who go get some plastic surgery to help them look better than they did 10 years ago. If you've got that inner cougar waiting to get out, then you can't go wrong if you get some Botox or lipo done to enhance your looks! Yes, the younger guys - and older alike will appreciate the gesture and you're going to feel better about yourself and more sexy!

Here's a nice picture for your viewing pleasure: can you say "thank you" to that doctor? Lol

How Paid Surveys are Good for Business

Buying a paid survey can seem scary at first but truthfully they are a great way to increase exposure and get a good name for yourself online. If you're interested in doing some reputation management or just want the truth to be told about your company's service or product, then a good paid survey is the way to go. Here are some recent results that we've experienced with a paid survey:

Paid Surveys help Local Businesses

Our online reputation was in a little jeopardy because of a few bad apples on Yelp. While Yelp is good for businesses in that there is transparency around the kind of service or product a business produces, it can be very crazy sometimes when one or two bad reviews tend to cause a drop in your business. It's sometimes hard to quantify it, but if you run the numbers historically for your business, do any dips in profits correlate with a bad review? This is when a good paid survey comes through and gives you the opportunity to put your best foot forward for your online presence. For local businesses, many times when you do a paid survey, the survey comes up in search results and you can have more control over what viewers see. It's a good avenue for you to do reputation management, especially after a smear campaign or a few bad Yelpers.

Paid Surveys can be Objective and give you an edge

When you decide to go for a paid survey, you'll be faced with many options. It's a good idea to get on board with some of the good reviewers who will interview you and a few customers then do some market research on your particular corner in the local market where you do business. Paid Surveys Central is a good spot I have received good results from. Some of our new clients found the page on that website then decided to contact us after reading the survey results, so it is a very good thing for us. It's one of the invertible necessities of internet life when you have a local business and goes in line with creating content in order to maximize a business's exposure. This is not the end all and should also be done with blogging and many other online content distribution networks. If you've ever come across a paid survey, they can really sway the audience into doing business with you over the competition and also helps in your ranking on Google.
