I am looking for job opportunities at upwork.com, but I don't seem to be qualified for any of them. I guess you have to have excellent quality to get a job there. I guess I am just going to continue my pay per click business of looking for referrals.

It will be hard to get a writing sample created or a writing portfolio. I think the last one I submitted to a company was at least 20 pages long with Times New Roman font and without it even being double spaced. So I will probably need to create around 50 writing samples. This will probably take a few months to finish. However, I need to do this so that I will have a writing sample to submit when I apply to creative writing-related jobs. I also need to be aware that controversial content is not allowed in creative writing anymore since this is no longer 2002.

I am going to try to get a writing sample created, or a writing portfolio to show to others when I apply for creative writing jobs. I might start a Tumblr account and start writing there and editing too. It might be too hard for me to keep two blogger accounts just to separate one for money making and the other one for creative writing. I might end up posting the wrong post on the wrong site. So I am going to create a separate Tumblr account instead. I just need to use Adblock to block all the promotional material that is forced on the user there, so I won't be forced to look at Tumblr accounts I don't want to read. You are forced to follow Tumblr accounts there when you make an account and I don't really want to do that.

I think I might start investing in dollars. Basically, I will stash a bunch of dollars, maybe by keeping them in a Paypal account. Then when the value of the Peso goes down, I will convert my dollars into pesos to gain a profit. This method will likely work. I think the value of the peso is just going to keep going down and down in comparison to the dollar. It's just a matter of inflation at work.

It's sad that paying out dividends has crawled down to a snail's pace in the Philippine stock market. It used to be the reality that companies like JFC and TEL would hand out dividends around twice or thrice a year. There hasn't been any dividends from both companies for the past four or so years. Good thing I already sold my TEL shares and cut my losses. I was still hanging onto them hoping the price would go back up (it didn't) or that I could rely on it as a dividend stock, but both are not true at all.

I've just sold and bought BDO shares so that I was able to remove my profits and add it to my available balance while buying shares again after I have deducted my profits. The way the market is going, I might be able to add more money to my savings account again soon. Hopefully I can invest in even more shares after I have enough money in my savings account, and I think I won't hesitate to buy Ayala land shares this time after seeing the growth it had while looking at the 50 percent profits from the other account.

I just sold my MWC shares and replaced them with JFC shares. For another account, I sold the MWC shares and bought SMPH shares. MWC's price just keeps flopping and it was better to cut losses especially as losses were going into thousands with the other account. Good thing I sold my URC shares when there was news of it having problems with revenue. Its price is dropping like a rock. I wish I invested in ALI shares as well as its other stock which is also AYALA corp that I don't remember the stock code of. Its stock price has had a 50 percent increase over the past few years. I wish I invested more into that company. A lot of the other account's stocks are going into the red. It would have generally been better to have just left the stocks it used to have on hold, apart from TEL which flopped badly and never recovered and URC which has seen a major flop in price as I stated.

My current Youtube view count is at 1,284 views. I might actually reach 10,000 views sooner than I thought. It's all thanks to a single upload of mine, which is "How to sneeze." As I've said before, I expected the upload to be pretty popular, but I never expected the upload to get this huge amount of views. I was expecting it to get 20 views or something. The upload I thought would blow up is "Stray cat at my window." This is because cat uploads are very popular on Youtube and I thought that upload would interest people more than a recording of me by myself suddenly sneezing.

I guess one lesson I learned from the stock market is that I shouldn't buy stocks that I am not familiar with, like MWC, which turned out to be an unpopular stock. At least I am a customer of BDO, so I generally know that the company is pretty stable and isn't closing stores left and right.

I need to sell my BDO shares while the price is still at around 131php per share.  I will buy again once the hype is over for it, people start selling it for a profit, and it starts to go down to 122php per share again. As for MWC shares, I'm going to sell them and cut my losses. I was wrong in buying that stock that isn't that popular and which I don't know much about.

There's been a big upswing in BDO shares in the stock market. They used to be worth 122php per share around a month ago but they are worth 131php per share now. I was able to take part in that stock price increase and I am glad about that. I just wish I invested more shares into it since it is a recommended stock in the Citiseconline EIP. One stock I wish I didn't buy is MWC. It is also part of the COL recommended EIP stocks so I bought it, but its price keeps going down. I guess I didn't realize that that stock doesn't have much fluidity, with few people buying and selling it, and it's not popular as a stock overall. I lost a lot of money from buying MWC shares and I wish I didn't buy a stock like that that I didn't know much about. I wish I had invested in BDO shares instead. But it might be too late to buy more shares now as the price will probably decrease at this point.

As I've mentioned, I need 20 more points to cashout my Globaltestmarket points. I don't really have much hope in being able to receive that money anytime soon. I will probably need to wait another month before surveys are offered again just so I can be disqualified four times to be able to withdraw my funds. Globaltestmarket seems to be disqualifying me more from surveys the last few months.

I am done clicking my Neobux ads today. From what I read, I'm supposed to extend all my rented referrals there for 240 days before I start withdrawing anything. I think having around 150 referrals is the ideal amount to have there since I will end up earning a maximum of 90 dollars a month with it. To rent 150 referrals, I will need to pay 30 dollars first and then extend them all for 240 days, which is the expensive part. To do that, I will need to pay around 165 dollars to extend them all for 240 days. After I do that, I can be free to withdraw as much as I want. In addition to that, would be good to earn that 165 dollars again from those referrals which will take around three months so that I can hopefully extend them all for 240 days again. From what I know, the autorecycle function works even when I extend the referrals for 240 days, so that is very useful and I won't have to do any monitoring that way. I hope I can make this happen so I can start earning good money online.

On some Youtube uploads, I get comments even though the upload has zero views. These are bot comments and I don't allow them and I delete them.

I have been trying to find freelance jobs on upwork.com. Basically all of the jobs require writing samples or a writing portfolio. I think I can't really submit this site as a portfolio. So I need to start making one. I might start a different account on another site to start making this portfolio. I need to make a long portfolio so it would look like I was spending a lot of time writing it instead of spending the past eight months on this site as well as my Youtube channel. I don't think either site of mine would be good to present as samples and portfolios.

My "how to sneeze" upload on Youtube now has 544 views! That's amazing! It might be sooner than I think when I will be able to reach 10,000 views and begin earning from Youtube. I think it is also possible to just wire transfer the earnings there to Philippine banks. That would be amazing! And it would be an easy way to earn and would not require me to leave the house. That would be great!

It's been a week since my last seven uploads on Youtube, so I uploaded five new uploads. They have gotten two views overall so far. I might make a habit of uploading even less frequently than this so I will get more views per upload I make. This would make them more worthwhile to make for each upload.

I only got 2 views for my seven recent uploads on youtube. Maybe I uploaded too many last week. I should probably upload only 5 videos per week. I even used to upload only five videos every two weeks and I still got decent view counts back then. Maybe that is what I should do again - only upload five videos every two weeks. It will give me more time to do more things too. I think I am also posting too often on this blog too.
