Well, this is the first post of a unique new website: I make no money.com

Growing up, I used to love the Berenstain Bears, the family of four bears taught me quite a bit, especially Papa Bear. If you have never had the privilege of reading the Berenstain Bears, is a collection of children books that teaches important lessons involving a family of four bears. The father bear, or Papa Bear, as the character is known, is infamous for teaching his son and daughter by demonstrating the wrong way to do things. We learn from Papa Bear’s mistakes and misfortunes. The official website sums it well, Papa Bear, “world’s greatest expert on almost everything. He is often wrong but never in doubt.”

Many “Internet Experts” are just that, Papa Bears - wrong, but never in doubt. Well, I am here to tell you, no, show you that more times than not often I am wrong as are the “experts.” I have recently realized that after 60+ domains and little to show for it, I am the internet’s version of “Papa Bear” Simply put, learn from my mistakes and you’ll be better off than me.

Some of the things I plan on discussing on this site:

  • How to make your site(s) flop
  • How to get scammed on eBay
  • How to get ripped off
  • How in general to lose money on the internet

I know that there exists an irony in the site. If the site is successful, it very well could make me money. I guess we’ll cross that bridge when we get there :) The other irony is that it will take focus to keep this site becoming like every other “get rich” site on the internet. I desire the focus of the site to be learning from other’s mistakes.

So in the meantime, grab some popcorn and read as I sink the canoe, eat too much turkey and ride the bike down the mountain without any helmet or knee pads (you really need to read the books).
