Not Getting Into Debts
In today’s world, where “cheap” credit abounds, many people are up to their eyeballs in debt. Perhaps it is wanting to look good and keeping up with the Jones. Perhaps it is just attitude that’s ingrained in to us by constant advertising.
It is good to report that not everyone is falling into the credit trap. All it takes is a different mindset other than of just following the crowd, some ingenuity, and hard word. I hope the story of Alex, who created www.milliondollarhomepage.com to fund his study, will inspire others to think and be out of the box. On the other hand, for those that were so inspired and started copying the site concept, I have the following for you.

Couldn’t agree with you more, Laura.
I always have been the “by the book type” till I learned it pays to be quirky at times. I’m finding out that it’s best to be true to yourself rather than pretend to be someone you are not.
Thanks for the link.
