I have uploaded a new site tonight. It has taken about 1-2 hours of effort. I bought the domain a few months ago, but have just been too busy to do anything with it. I was looking through Japan related domains on some domain registration site and saw that it was available: www.dotjapan.com. I thought [...]

Darren Rowse from Problogger reported that he made $14,436 for the month of May from Adsense. He says he maintains about 17 blogs and works between 10-12 hours a day. He is definitely a source of inspiration, but I don’t know if I could put that much effort into blogging. I would prefer to maintain [...]

It looks as though there has been an update with Google’s page rank. My sites have either increased or remained the same. Traffic and revenue for my Tokyo travel site are increasing more and more with the new design. With any major change you get worried that your revenue will at least stay the same. [...]

I have updated my status in the right column. After a couple of months of organizing property 4, it feels great to final change this number from 3 to 4. I haven’t written much about this property, but basically it is a small house on over 700 square meters of land located out of Balclutha [...]

I had an email from someone who writes, “I can’t help but inform you that the Rich Dad series is far too “pie in the sky” to base your financial success on”. I basically agree with his comments. I think I will change what I have written in my profile at some stage. When I [...]

I was thinking of buying something on Ebay, so rather than go to the trouble of putting money into my Paypal account I have decided to sell some Japanese medals that I have had for a while. The listing can be viewed here. Starting price is $10. I was thinking the auction would go for [...]
