How To Keep Track…

I’ve realised that there are two ways of keeping track of money:

• Business that you have generated
• Work that you’ve done that you are owed money for
• Money that you’ve actually paid in to your account

The three are very different figures.

I’m starting to think that I should possibly attempt to keep track of it all in a slightly more reliable way. So – spreadsheet or buckle under, expect huge profits any day now and install some opensource accountancy software? Hmmm.

The positive thinking attitude would be “Opensource accountacy”. And, as it is Opensource, it doesn’t actually cost me anything (How do I love thee, Opensource software? Let me count the ways… Actually it won’t take long, for verily it can be summed up as – thou art free and thou beateth the codpieces off of Bill Gates in so many varied ways…).

And in fact, whilst thinking about the subject, I just got a phone call making another reservation at the cottage. Hrm. Maybe this is a sign…. I feel some investigation may be warranted.

If I were advising someone else, then I would advise them to future-proof their plans, particularly if it wasn’t going to cost any extra. Why dream small?

Heh, accountancy package it is.

BTW: $5.45 in GoogleAds revenue today. Also found some sites which puport to pay for article writing – some of them are actually requesting niche articles which I am qualified to write. May be worth a punt… I’ll put some time in, and see whether they actually pay out, and if so, how reliable they are. I’ll report back on the results. I am also investigating one “form-filling opportunity”, which smells of pyramid selling to me. If it turns out to be what I suspect, then I shall also report back.

I should state here and now that I do not intend to *ever* recommend an item or service which has either paid me to do so, or I do not think is excellent. What I present here at The In-Debt Net is 100% genuine.

Let’s face it, life really is too short to be scammed
