Hi Everyone,
I am in the second week of the new job and everything is going well so far. I have found 39 cents since the last update. This came in the form of 3 dimes and 9 pennies. 38 cents was found on the ground at Quick Check, Home Depot, Ice skating rink, super market and today in the parking lot near work. The remaining penny was given to me as extra change in the cafeteria at work. Change due was fourteen cents, cashier gave a dime and a nickle to make it easier.
To summarize:
Current Step: 9
Total Stake: $2.06 Total Surplus: $.22
Amount required to complete step $.50
Until Next Time...

Step - 9 Update: My Biggest Find So Far
Hi Everyone,
It is a beautiful, sunny, warm day here in NJ and things are starting to come together for me. I received a message earlier that I have gotten the second job I applied to, so that means more money coming in. This is much needed as I had to dip into my savings while I was out of work in order to pay the bills.
I also found my biggest doubling find so far while I was out at lunch. I found 36 cents near a bench outside the mall near to where I am working. I have added it to my stake.
I am starting to get excited as pretty soon there will be enough stake money available to purhase something to re-sell. Which means I will not have to rely soley on finding change on the ground.
To summarize:
Current Step: 9
Total Stake: $1.67 Total Surplus: $.22
Amount required to complete step $.89
Anyway, I hope all of your doubling efforts are going well!!
Until Next Time...

Step - 8 Completed
Hi Everyone,
I know it has been a while. As I had previously mentioned I was focusing all my time on searching for a job. Well the effort has paid off. I found a job and since finding it I have interviewed for another job (more money) and I am expecting to get the second job soon.
Although I did not have time to post about it, I was still keeping my head down as I was out and about. I managed to find 12 cents during this time. Most was found at, you guessed it, the local Quick Check, I also found some at the supermarket, the mall by my new job, and the ice skating rink where my daughter skates. I found these 1 penny at a time. This brings me through Step 8 and into Step 9 with a total stake of $1.31.
To summarize:
Current Step: 9
Total Stake: $1.31 Total Surplus: $.22
Amount required to complete step $1.25

Web 2.0 Explained
Hi Everyone,
As promised in the "Step 8 Update #4" post, I am going to give you a link to what I think is a good explanation of Web 2.0.
If you are going to try to use internet marketing as part of your doubling process you will need to understand Web 2.0 and how to use various Web 2.0 properties to help drive traffic to your affiliate offers, web pages, etc.
There is also some additional information that I am reviewing, and will be providing to you if I think it is useful. I am toying with the idea of setting up a mailing list/autoresponder type set up for this blog, once i figure out how to do so. So future freebies like this will most likely require signing up to the mailing list.
I will be doing this mostly as an experiment in how to monetize a blog. I have thought long and hard about whether or not I should monetize this blog. I had mixed feelings about it as the theme is about making money for free. However, if you really think about doubling, the initial money is found for free and then you buy something with the stake to re-sell at a profit etc. So based on that I will be making some changes in the future to monetize this blog.
I do however promise to be up front with you about any "monetized items". I will:
1. Let you know in advance about any changes/additions to this blog.
2. Let you know when a link is an affiliate link.
3. Only have affiliate links to products that I think will be helpful to you in your doubling efforts.
4. Provide free alternatives to any recommended products (if there are any available)
5. Not require you to purchase anything from me ever
Hope my decision to monetize does not offend any of you. I value and appreciate all of you that take the time to read this blog. And I promise to still provide all information to you for free as always.
Anyway, thanks for sticking with me and here is the link as promised. This is not an affiliate link.

Hope you enjoy and learn something from these videos. Let me know what you think of them.

Step - 8 Update #5
Hi Everyone
Sorry it has been a while since my last post. As I mentioned before I have been out of work for almost 3 months. Money is starting to get tight and therefore, all of my time recently has been spent on searching for the next job.
The good news is that all of this searching has finally paid off and if everything goes well I will be back to work on Monday. The bad news is that (I am a consultant) and the rate is not as much as I usually receive so money will still be a little tight but it is better than nothing.
Anyway since my last post I found an additional six cents at you guessed it the local Quick Check. I found 4 cents on Friday, another on Saturday, and the last one yesterday. As Tony Saprano would say "boy that Quick Check is a good earner Badda Bing".
To summarize:
Current Step: 8
Total Stake: $1.19 Total Surplus: $.22
Amount required to complete step $.09
