BEWARE of data entry and paid survey adverts !!!!

I definitely must inform all of you who are surfing the net hoping to earn extra income through joining home-based paid surveys or data entry jobs.

Recently, I stumbled upon a website called I’ve Tried That, and I saw a post titled “I Was Scammed By DataEntryPortal.com”.  In this article, victim had paid $57 to apply for a data entry job, but soon found out that the company only sent more links to other data entry companies which ask for more money. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SCAM!

To view full details, please click http://www.ivetriedthat.com/2007/10/22/i-was-scammed-by-dataentryportalcom/

Another paid survey scam is paidsurveysetc.com (Paid Surveys Etc).  They want you to pay them one time membership fee, in return, give you a list of paid survey sites.

DO NOT PAY to take surveys.  There are many paid survey sites that offer free membership, and will actually pay you for taking surveys.

Earn happy money dudes!

Want Free Advertising On Google?

No doubt, whenever people surf the net they are always attracted to the word “FREE”.

I have always been surfing the net for free advertising for my business.  I know that it is very effective if  I can start to use Pay-Per-Click (PPC).  But I know it will cost me a small fortune since  I do not know the exact ways to use this advertising tool.  It is easy to set up but there are niches I still yet to discover.

There is another way to advertise on Google for FREE, which I just learnt from Mike Volpe in Hubspot.  In this blog, he taught people how to use Google Local and Google Maps to advertise.  Click on the link below to view the full details.  He is brilliant!

 In Part I, I have shown you all the bad feng shui energies and how to cure them.

 

Today, I’ll show you tips on how to enhance your lucky sectors in your house, in which these auspicious chi (energy) will bring you and your family good fortune.

 

 

1)  The South.  In 2009, South sector is graced by the presence Golden Deity star that strengthens the scholastic and marriage luck.   Houses that face South should enhance foyer with bright lights.  Anyone that wishes to increase their luck in marriage can place nine beautiful horses in this sector.  BUT, MARRIED COUPLES SHOULD NEVER ACTIVATE THIS LUCK BECAUSE IT WILL LEAD TO INFIDELITY.

 

Since the South is associated with attainments and recognition, combining with the Golden Deity here will brings great academic success.  If you reside in this part of the house, and you are in writing career, or engaged in literary professions, you should enhance the chi energy here with bright lights through out the night.  If your house facing the South, placing a Chinese Calligraphy Brush at the top corner of your main door will greatly help your children to obtain good grades.

 

 

2)  The Southeast (SE).  In the year of 2009, the auspicious number 8 star flies to the SE.  According to the Pa Kua, the SE is the wealth sector of a house or office.  Thus, if you activate the 8 star energy, you will enjoy strong wealth luck.

It is very auspicious if you can display good fortune symbols in the multiples of 9 e.g. 9 dragons (bring wealth), 9 elephants (bring the luck of attainments), 9 phoenixes (bring opportunities) or 9 goldfish (bring abundance). 

 

 

3)  The Northwest (NW).  The White Star 1 which is associated with victory luck flies to the NW this year.  Anybody resides in NW will surely benefit from this star.  Furthermore, there are Prosperity Luck Star in NW1 and Small Luck Rising Star in NW3.  Bringing the NW even more powerful energy towards success and prosperity. 

 

In order to energize this sector, you will need to display 1 auspicious symbol, such as carving made of precious stone (e.g. jade) whose Earth energy benefits the Metal Element of the NW.  Or by displaying the Nine Rank Badges here to create the sum of ten of 1 and 9.

 

If your house is facing NW, place the Nine Rank Badges in the living room or you can place Nine Victory Elephants for prosperity.

4)  The Southwest (SW).  With the Star of Heavenly Luck flies to this sector, you will benefit the promise of celestial guidance and assistance if you reside in SW of your house.  In this sector, the Matriarch welcomes the Patriarch in a symbolic pairing that is very auspicious especially for couples. 

 

In SW1, there is another lucky star called the Star of Resting.  This brings the residents in this part of the house or office to do well in 2009 without having to put in much effort.

 

To energize this sector, simply put water feature and also supplement with bright lights to strengthen matriarchal energy.

 

For SW facing house, display water feature or Elephant with Monkey for promotion luck.

5)  The Centre.  The Star of Future Prosperity lands in the centre of your home in 2009.  This star brings good fortune to all family members. 

 

To enhance its chi, just display Nine Rank Badges here or nine glitter lamps.  Other than that, you can put nine rod wind chimes or put green plants here.  Bright lights can help to enhance the chi here as well.

 Just finished reading all about 2009 Feng Shui from “Feng Shui World” , a wonderful magazine published by WOFS.com Sdn Bhd, with Lillian Too as Publishing Director.  I wanted to share with you all the good tips to enhance your luck in 2009.

 

I bet everyone would have known that the world economy is plunging sharply since October 2008.  This financial crash ripples will continue to affect every person, even billionaires.  There are more than thousands of employees being terminated from services.  Life is sure going to be difficult in 2009! 

Just ask yourself,  ” Is my salary good enough to pay all my bills with a little extra to organize family vacation twice a year?”  If your answer is yes, then praise yourself.  If no, then arm yourself with good feng shui tips.

Part 1:  The Bad Sectors In Your House ( To Cure)

Every year, one must know where the TAI SUI  resides and make sure to place appeasement symbols and carry out the correct rituals.   This year in 2009, Tai Sui is housed in the first sector of the NorthEast direction, which is also the location of OxGeneral Hong Yau Theen is this year Tai Sui, who is noted for courage and benevolence.  So, in 2009, TAI SUI is helpful to all those born in year of Ox. 

 

It is beneficial to place a Pi Yao carved out of precious stones (can be jade or other earth color) in the NE as it can pleased the TAI SUI, and bring good fortune into the home.  Other than that, displaying the TAI SUI amulet can help you to smoothen obstacles.

REMEMBER: Not to disturb the place of TS, ie, the NE1 location.  No renovation, no drilling, banging, and knocking down walls, or digging holes in the ground.  Disturbing the NE could bring misfortune and no one would want that to happen!

The following are the rest of the afflicted sectors that you must not ignore.

1)  The West.  The Illness Star resides in the West in 2009.  If your house facing West, the remedies will be to hang Acala’s disc and ball in your front area, paint front door white and dim all lights at front door foyer.  For bedrooms in the west of home, it is advised to place brass wu lou and Acala’s disc and ball.  In 2009, the Golden Deity brings good vibes to the West.  So display Bodhisattva Acala in “gold” can protect against illness star and activated the Prosperity Star which resides nearby.

2)  The North.  Wu Wang star fly to the North this year.  This star brings misfortunes to people resides in North facing houses and who’s bedrooms located in the North of house.  There are three remedies for this star.

  • Use the Five Element Pagoda with bigger base ( with mantras embossed ) and place it on a table in the particular afflicted area (bedroom or front of North facing house).

  • Or, use Five Element Big Bell at 8 to 12 inches high (with mantras embossed). This is a powerful cure against the Five Yellow.  Strike the bell at least once a day and more often if you happen to be going through difficult time.

  •  Salt remedy on Brass Bowl with Coins.   Get a brass bowl and fill it with rock or sea salt and place on a sideboard or coffee table in the North part of your living room, office or study room.  But do not place in your bedroom and children’s rooms.
  • DO NOT RENOVATE THE NORTH.  Keep the North quite in 2009.

3)  The Northeast.  Hostile Star which is associated with arguments, misunderstandings and court cases is sure to affect people who works or live in this sector.  Manjushri’s Flaming Swordis the best remedy to subdue all quarrelsome energy.  Place it in the NE of your living room or on the NE of your desk.  If you sleep in NE room, place it on the table in that room.  Houses that face NE should use a larger flaming sword and remove water features that are near the front door.  You can also paint your door or wall red to suppress this bad energy.

4)  The East.  In 2009, Robbery Star falls into the East sector of the house, and if your main door facing the East, you must place protective  features here because it brings danger of violence and burglary.  It will also threat the eldest son in the family.  Anybody resides in the East, should move to other room in 2009 to avoid its influence.  If this is not possible, then the person should place Blue Double Horned Rhino in that room.   If the main door facing East, place 2 Blue Double Horned Rhinos flanking your front door is excellent protection.  Or, you can put water feature inside your house near the main door.

5)    The Three Killings.  In 2009, the Three Killings (TK) falls to the East.  So the East sector not only afflicted by Robbery Star, but also the Three Killings.  TK brings 3 types of bad luck which is,  loss of one’s good reputation, loss of  loved one and loss of wealth.  For the cure, it is always the famous three:  Chi Lin, Fu Dog and Pi Yao. Place these celestial protectors at the front of house for East facing house (facing out).  The others can put these powerful protectors at the East sector of the house too.
