Government Shutdown? No More Middle Class? Where Does This Leave You?


Read this post now, before the government shutdown and Ben Bernanke destroy the middle class. We can take care of ourselves, but only by working together. MLM is one way to do that.

We need to look to ourselves to solve our financial woes, even when they are no fault of our own. If you don’t like my idea, that’s fine, get your own:-) People helping people is still the answer. Internet network marketing is my answer.

Over the years, many people have tried MLM before and spent more than they ever made – myself included. Others have never tried it, but might have friends who have prospected them and damaged their friendship. This is why a system is so important! You can build up your earnings before you ever even tell anyone you know about your business. Then they know that you don’t neeeeeeeeed them to join you so you can make money. The simple fact is, that is what feels so off about mlm for so many – we would rather keep our friends, lol! Having a system allows both friendship and success. (Is it possible for you and your upline to create an online marketing system to promote your network marketing opp?)

I know that I have no control over what the government is going to do. Who knows what Ben Bernanke will think of next? It’s out of our hands because darn it all, complaining doesn’t change anything, lol!

Moral of this post: figure out what you need, what you love, and put your faith, heart and energy there. Because no matter what the government does, or how much more money the Fed or doesn’t print, their actions aren’t suddenly going to give you and your family financial security.

Comments? What do you think? What about the US budget and possible government shutdown? The wanton money printing of the Fed and Ben Bernanke? Who is looking out for your family? Are you involved in MLM or thinking about it or another home business opportunity? Add your comment below.

Will Your Bit.ly Links Stop Working?

If you have created marketing links to your MLM business using Bit.ly, you may want to consider changing them before Libya’s Internet shutdown effects your traffic. I have used them, but lately I have been using Google’s url shortener, http://goo.gl, which has tracking.

Here’s a link to an article that explains what is happening and why your links may stop working soon:

Libya Begins Internet Shutdown — Will Bit.ly Be Affected?

In response to rising anti-government protests in Libya, leaders have started to cut off citizens’ access to Facebook and other Internet sites.

The folks over at Center Networks pose an interesting question: what happens to all those companies that have no business in Libya but use the .ly suffix in their domain names?

Link-shortening service Bit.ly is probably the most prominent one, but there are others like Deck.ly, which shortens links so they can be posted on Tweetdeck, and Embed.ly, which turns links into more interesting embeddable content by putting images and other material around them.

There’s some precedent for the fear: last October, the Libyan government seized the domain vb.ly for posting “adult” content. Domain owners ViIolet Blue and Ben Metcalfe disagreed, but the government held firm, and Metcalfe posted a long blog post explaining that the .ly domain should not be considered safe.

In that case, the Libyan government’s domain name registrar, NIC.ly, seized the site and turned it over for “local use.” That site is currently down. But the popular .ly Web sites are all still up and running.

Still, it seems that the outage is a possibility: when Egypt cut off Internet access earlier this year, the Egyptian government ordered ISPs to stop resolving all domains ending in .eg.

The lesson: be wary of using domain names outside where your business is based.
