How much news are you getting from websites?
Above is a highlighted screen shot from nz herald. RED = external ads like adsense and other cpc or cpi stuff , green is the actual content. Without too may metrics It would be fair to say the page contains less than 25% of what you requested.
My take on TAX
Well lets face it , your gonna have to pay them, but here is an idea. Howabout every person gets a community card then a proprtion of your tax goes onto the card. Say 15% is credited to this card and you can use it to " upsize " or subsidize various activities like school fees, doctors or what ever.
Capitalism
Ya know the funny thing about capitalism? Well when you got into a supermarket and see cheese is really expensive and you still buy it, you screw up the system a little.
When you see a house for sale and get a mortagage and you can only afford the intrest only part, you screw up the system a little.
Its all supply and demand , want it to be cheaper , dont buy it now. Come back in a few moths and try. The biggest problem I see now is supermarkets know what you are prepared to pay for your food and wont drop prices in a hurry.
Another new theme

Win our ferrari redux
So some more digging around I see the "win our ferrari" site is down ,
And as far as I can tell no one won the comp. Now the kicker is I found this on trade me.
Now I know I cant prove this is the same car .. but the old plates have an interesting history
but of course I could be wrong and someone won the car and is selling it.
get rich quick scams
So what with all the dodgy ads on facebook at the moment , the google money tree , the make $50 an hour rubbish?
So I clicked on this add and was sent to this page
At first look it appears there was some effort put into this page, next I note the guy is from Wellington (hey I am from Wellington too , maybe I can get rich as well) but on closer inspection I see address bar indicates this is a New Zealand specific page ...
So i check out the properties of the guys picture
hey, its hosted from another site .. lets check out that site
wow the exact same site but now we have a united kingdom url and Tom has shifted..
also on another note I love the comments
Best idea of the year ?
This guy is onto a winner, such a simple solution to a common problem I am amazed no one thought of it earlier. Now i just think he need a better name for it as "stuffit " is already a popular term and the SEO on it is already saturated, but them again it is catchy.
I want need one
This blog sounds really interesting. But Tom let me ask you this. Are you 100% sure that we’ll make money right off the bat if we sign up for this free package? I proceeded to the page where I could sign up for the package, and it’s requesting my credit card information! How much would I have to pay?
Johnny, I happen to live in Wellington too. If you would like to sit down with me and discuss how I make money off Google, I’m more than happy to do so. Also, the credit card request is for shipping and handling fees, and the total only comes to $1 USD.
This sounds like a huge scam!!
At first, when I saw something like this, I wouldn’t believe it. I was just like you. But look at it this way, what’s there to lose? That $1 which might somehow fall out of your pockets while you’re running after the bus? Scott, trust me, and trust the people who’s have already became one of the most successful Google Merchants!
Tom! I received the package! This is just great! I spent 3 days reviewing all the materials and I’m planning to get started right now! If I have further questions I’ll email you. Thanks for all your help Tom!
