I was recently tagged by Sasha about this interesting meme … the reason why I decided to monetize my blog.

We all have our own reasons why we do the things that we do, and for some people, your way (or my way) might not sit well with them. I respect their opinions, and am hoping that they will respect mine.

I actually started blogging because I wanted to post my pictures. As simple as that! But it all became “complicated” when I noticed that I wasn’t that satisfied with my camera anymore. Hubby presented me with a new camera and pretty soon (like, about a year later) I felt that it was somehow lacking, too.

You know the feeling … like, you have this cellphone for some time … you like it a lot, but after about three years it’s already outdated? You don’t? Then it must just be me … lol.

This time, though, I don’t want hubby to give me the camera that I want ( canon eos 40D). But being a SAHM, I had no idea how I will be able to get that much cash … pretty impossible, I first thought. That is, until I read about a blogger post regarding her first dslr (digital single lens reflex) camera, which she bought through her problogging activities! That certainly sparked my decision to turn my blogger blog into a monetized blog. Pretty soon, after getting my own domain, I decided to do the same, too!

But now that I have the cash (and more), it somehow seems so trivial using most of it on just one object, the camera. So I have instead decided to “give” most of it away, to family members. Christmas season or not, I know I’ll be happier this way. Nope, I’m not being a martyr here, or anything. I am just doing what’s best for everyone. Including myself.

Besides, if I continue with my problogging activities, pretty soon I will be able to raise the same amount, too!

I hope LordManilaStone and Zen will be able to share with us their reason(s) why they have monetized their blogs, too.

No pressure; just share with us if you feel like it.

Sometimes situations like incurring bad credit happens. But that doesn’t mean it’s the end of everything! Trust me, if things go wrong, do something to make it right. Moping won’t do anything; go search for solutions.

There’s a site that can help with bad credit loans, and it’s really worth checking them out! It’s actually a free customer resource site for people with not-so-perfect credit rating. Loans like homes, personal, and auto loans are covered, together with other loan categories, at the site.

Think you might need their help? Then go check out BadCreditOffers.com, and see how they may be able to help you with your financial situation.
