Sunday, 22 September 2013, SPARKS, NV - That is right according to the statistics which as promised are posted via gadget down in the bottom right corner of this blog. Everybody is out there looking for luxury bargains so it seems we have found a good niche for advertisers. And it looks as if Consumer Reports would like to give people some advice on its product testing. When I go to its site I find that some of the advice is free while other advice requires me to buy the magazine.
Or go to the library. Do not forget about the public library as in a lot of places these days they have all kinds of things such as public computers to use (usually pay per page we print), CDs with music, DVDs with movies, and do not forget periodicals such as newspapers and magazines. Also all those other things on the shelves which some of still like to hold which we call books.
Watch out for those late fines at some libraries such as in San Antonio. You would not believe how high they were after the City Council voted that the City was going to use libraries as "profit centers". They do not know what libraries are about. Sad. When I was there it cost me more to have a movie late at the library than at the video/DVD store, of which there were about zero anyway. I do like those used books too, though. That place Half Price Books as I recall was started by a couple in or around Houston and was the largest used book seller in the country.
Now remember if you have cranked up your own blog you are free to do as you choose. However Max Money does not take money or any remuneration, not even pesos, for mentioning a place that he thinks is a good value. Nor can I be bribed NOT to write about a business in a post. As in ON THE OTHER HAND Half Price Books gives me about nothing for the books I sell them. If I sell them ten books they give me about ten times nothing. Come on. I might as well just go read books in Barnes & Noble all day. I always try not to spill things on them in the cafe and to wash my hands so someone will buy them.
Of course I can not speak for my friend Miss Money whom you met in the last post. Has anyone seen her around anyway, I am searching around in all the blogs. But she is a little bit crafty if you did not notice. Sometimes she uses a pseudoname. (Okay if you are still in school please do not spell it like that -- it is "pseudonym" not "name". Just to trip you up. We Moneys say that there is not point in learning things that are wrong. It is not funny, then you just have to undo it.)
Anyway sometimes Miss Money will use a name like Barack Obama. HA! HA! Joke, that is a joke. But I do understand that she grew up the child of parents in a traveling carnival. Nothing wrong with that. Just do not offer her a corn dog. Man does that make her mad! Hoping your STATs are good STATs until the next post. And that all your luxuries are bargains!

Meet Miss Money! Mucho Luxury Bargains Early Weekend Shoppers Or Make Extra Money Off Bill Harassers
Saturday, 19 September 2013 - Well Luxury Baragainers (LB's) this post patiently had been waiting around all day yesterday to go final
because there was a lot more to do than it seemed when Max arose. First those misdialed calls started coming in from the 210 and 713 area codes, the dreaded San Antonio - Houston bill harassment corridor. And we know what that means: AutoMaxMode. All mistakes. Do not pick up. Review www.nolo.com bill collection harassment tips. Read the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Read the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. I read that in a junk e-mail. Only get legal advice from a licensed active professional, which I am not. I am a blogger.
But we will end that right there. Let us take the rest of today's post and make something positive out of it. Like dinner. Meet the one and the only, TA DA!, Miss Money. Have you ever bought someone's writing out on the street just because you want to support street culture? My friend Miss Money does. She always comes out ahead herself, too. As I believe it says in the Bible -- to paraphrase -- give all you can to others and riches beyond measure shall come to you. Miss Money did not tell me that, someone who came to my door dressed as the meter reader did, even though we no longer have one. We are going meterless.
Back to Miss Money. Once we went into a restaurant on an expired (1993) 2 for 1 Entertainment Book (trademark) coupon. I did not get paid to write that or anything else by the way by those I mention in a post. Readers might think about that who are starting a blog along with this one. It is about trust. Anyway in my case people try to pay me NOT to recommend things. But I only do if I really and truly notice them and think that they are good things.
Like the "Simple Savings" card. I told people about that drug discount card I got for free. It sometimes saved me a lot and other people I lent it to in line at the pharmacy, too. It cost me nothing. I decided to mention it in a post when I let an elderly couple that spent $700 A MONTH ON HIS PRESCRIPTIONS! use the card in front of me at that everywhere drugstore we all know that is very "convenient".
The one that had the so-called "President" Bush's daughter arrested at the Drive-Thru in Florida. Anyway the elderly couple were afraid of me because I guess these days everyone figures someone has got a racket, but she was paying and told him "try it". Of course she was the boss, no offense, just saying, after probably forty years of. . . . Never mind. Anyway he saved $400 right there. She started to cry right in front of me. I felt good. I helped improve their quality of life. I do not know if they still have that card, if it is free, nor anything else about it. But anyway I know for a long time people went to that post to find out about it, and they even put an easy cut-out Google advertisement for it next to the blog. I have never communicated with them in my life.
Anyway usually I miss everything like that because I am in oblivion Mom would say as in when I got on the plane by accident and went to Europe. But back to dinner this time I caught what Miss Money did. I saw her hand this guy five bucks who I knew because he was a drunk who screamed at me every time I got off the bus from work when I used to be a part of the "rat race" and not an LB'er. I asked her why she did that. Per usual she said "what?"
"But Miss Money nobody ever takes you for a. . . ."
"Shut up, Maxwell."
"My name is Max. Max Money. Maxwell's was the coffee plant reminds me of my Mom. . . ."
"Shut up, Maxwell. Go in the restaurant right now, or I am not taking you to eat."
"But that is my coupon. It is the only one left from the 1993 book except the 'Windows On The World' that they will not even let us trade in."
"Shut up, Maxwell. I do not want to hear about that coupon again. That is in very poor taste. You should know better. Now go in there. You are cramping my style".
"Hmph." I might as well me married to her. But I followed orders and went inside because I love Canadian food. Like Mol. . . . I mean my special sports drinks. Sometimes it is so hard to talk to a woman. A minute after I sat down she sat at the booth with her hair all messed up like I guess a pretend street poet. She started doing something on the bench on her side of the booth. I knew what she was doing. She was counting money.
Miss Money is always counting money. That is what I heard men in Scotland do or used to do before they go to bed. They count all the money in their wallets. I do not know as I have not been there to Scotland on top of England, nor have I gone to bed in the same room with a. . . . . Oh, never mind.
I no longer need to do that wallet counting as I used to get nervous if it was not $200 more or less. I guess that was in the old days when we were always worried about a nuclear war with the Soviet Union, and they did not have cash machines so you wanted to be prepared in case an ICBM landed down the street with no warning. Thank goodness that Cold War is over and there is nothing to worry about now. I used to think some people where going to make a whole career out of keeping you worried so you did not notice that everything was no fun anymore.
Back to my new wallet in the good old days of which I usually also had several in my drawer as everyone gave me them for present because as they used to joke I have no personality. Anyway now it is $1 more or less in my wallet held together by duct tape. The good kind. Name brand. Hey but do not think we cannot find some real luxury bargains out there to raise back up our standard of living or just make it higher than ever before or whatever. If I were not so busy writing I would probably do a search on something like "Good quality bargains" with the quote marks so it is all searched together. They call that a Boolean search which I sure do not know how I remembered that one. Oh, Miss Money is back.
"What happened to you?"
"Nothing, Max, I sold my poem for $10. Now shut up I have to make a phone call." She was calling the police non-emergency number again so I knew she must have gotten a moving violation. "I really would appreciate that as even rushing there my mother died at the hospital a few minutes later. . . . We could really use the money for the medical bills and the service . . . . Oh, if the officer wants to do anything tell him we could not take that, please just tell him to mail in the order form I gave him for the Girl Scout Cookies. They are asking for cash, their bank burned down . . . . Oh, yes please tell him she was in the trunk. I do not have time to explain right now. I will call back." She turned off her phone.
As I said or should have I hope you get to meet her. I am looking around for her in the blogs. She is a piece of work. She is like a blog "drifter" only you change the "d" to a "g". Anyway I stopped revising the last post here because when I was here the stats said I had almost one hundred views the day before. And my ad was for places that looked like they really sold luxury bargains. Then when I checked after the next day ended the stats said down we were down to three views. So what does that teach us? Remember do as I say not as I always do. We must keep blogging on every day. Got it Max? Because then I stopped right there and posted the last post yesterday which now has thirty views. Everybody confused. Blog on.
That is one thing I really like about Miss Money you can catch her red-handed but somehow YOU are the one who always gets in trouble. She is so slick. Alright that is it I am putting up another sticky note, or no I am going to change the one already on my computer screen which reads "Do Not Gamble" to "Do Not Gamble/Ramble, Maxwell". Ugh! that "Maxwell" still makes me flinch. My Mom was very loving and really totally peaceful. Nevertheless she was not afraid to maintain order so she did beat the the you-know-what out of me every time one of my three sisters lied to her and said I had done some horrible thing to them.
And I never knew it was coming since usually I had not done anything at all. I was not on guard for Mom (unless she was coming at me with a hairbrush for a spanking). I was maybe reaching up for my 50 lb. bag of dry rodent food to feed my pet gerbils. Then her hand SMACK! right across my face as she passed me. No warning. And my sisters whistling that horrible Beatles' song, "Bang, bang, . . . ."
My name is not even really Maxwell which is what it read on the coffee plant next door. They haunted my nightmares whispering "Good to the last SMACK!" My name is Max Money it is time to get back on track here. This post is after all a further MaxAnalysis of our advertising approach. So the big question for the moment is do we go in the "Post" white block on "Layout" and make it 2 or 3 a day. We shall what looks better, LB's, we shall see.

Luxury Bargains Galore Instantly Offered On MaxAnalysis Of Our New Smart Shopping Site
Friday, 20 September 2013, MARINA DEL HEY!, CA - Hello Readers is Friday the best day of the week or what? Ready for some Smart Shopping For Super Bargains. For most of my Discount-Driven peeps (gang talk like they use in this town which is named after the Rich and Famous Galore Snazzy place but is not) Friday means that if you have a desk job likely you are going to be unchained from some cubicle somewhere and PAID TO GO GLAMOROUS. If you are a skilled or unskilled laborer "good" lucky to have some of that President Obama continuing employment you do not need to be back sober until probably the wee hours of Monday morning.
Of course nobody really wants to set all those just paid potential shoppers ("sitting targets" or "STs" for those of us in the no clue) who hopefully will spend some pay/welfare/allowance/whatever for services and things first right from the comfort of their homes. Now we have to think like our luxury bargain advertisers, remember they are the ones who will help save our readers from buying things for too much that they do not need. As for teaching them the difference between "bad debt" and "good debt" I believe until Max Money starts his financial newsletter I believe yours truly will leave that one alone.
Keep in mind however the ad shooters get another shot "loaded with ads" at them as soon as they head out to the supermall or strip mall or wherever passing blazing billboards with ads blaring on the radio or TV in the car (wowzer!). Even coming in now over their MePhone while they cruise around. Weekend over then it should be time to start making some very loud noise usually while it is still pitch black because sure we all know working Americans like to start the day early to WORK HARDER AND LONGER TO STAY ALIVE than in any "developed" Country on planet Earth. Apparently we buy a lot of bombs from nice people who need to sell them to make sure that the world is safe just like President "Ike" Eisenhower told us not to do.
I remember seeing a TV show about the two bomber pilots who Commander-In-Chief Bush had do a pre-emptive dump of all these "precision" bombs on Iraq. They hit precisely nothing but children and women, mostly teachers. I have missed all the news pretty much since then because they put those digital things on TV's. I have never been able to figure out how to work the TV since even though I have a "universal controller" for every component.
Seems as if all my friends get real expensive computers and tell me "look at this real expensive computer I can watch TV on it". I bet now being a more experienced luxury bargainer (an "LB") you know what to say without hurting their feelings. Something like, "Yes well I have something to watch TV on called a big old console TV that I bought at Goodwill for $3.00 in a real good part of town where rich people just want to get them hauled out of their house. Plus all their other expensive unused stuff of which they are bored before they open it and feel just as empty as before."
Then comes my philosophy which I guess one might say sums up the Moneymax Luxury Bargain theme: "Five passengers set sail that day, on a three hour . . . . " Just KIDDING! No I say "Instead of working eighty hours a week to buy stuff you do not need or even know you want until they tell you you do and then never picking it up again unless you give it to someone as a present or because you owe them money, why do you not work half as much and SHOP CAREFULLY AT HALF AS MUCH FOR QUALITY PURCHASES THAT WILL LAST YOU A HAPPY LIFETIME."
There you go crawl machines (we LB's shall discuss those robotronic crawlpuppies next time) crawl all over that one. BARGAIN BARGAIN. LUXURY LUXURY. VALUE VALUE. BEST PRICES & QUALITY. REBATE REBATE . . . and now we got out the WEEKEND HAS BEGUN!

Max Money Is Back And That Is Saying Something Although I Am Not Quite Sure What At The Moment
Sunday, 15 September 2013, ENGLEWOOD, NEW JERSEY - Well bargain hunters I took a look at that last post and maybe that was not such a good idea. It made me want to go out and get a pizza slice as soon as possible. With extras. Of course then I had to consider whether that was a luxury plus whether it was a bargain. Then on top if all that I had to consider whether I am also giving some kind of nutrition advice here. I do NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT NUTRITION.
Okay that is a good start full disclosure that all we can expect around here is LUXURY BARGAIN advice, no nutrition, legal, medical, accounting nor any other kind of regulated professional advice. No dental advice. Now as far a luxuries go I may not be the best authority because as soon as I hear that word I yawn and think of duty-free items at the passport (huh?) and so on. But if I keep going like this I will not be setting a very good example for those who are reading this blog looking for tips or inspiration.
Then I might as well call this "The Please Do Not Read This Blog Blog". Or who knows maybe that would make everyone read it. The fact of the matter is that neither Google Blogger nor anyone else has all the answers. If they did there would not be any questions nor competition excuse me "community" nor I do not know what all. But that is the history of the world is it not? It is the person who comes along with the new idea. . . . let me think of some real terrible example here. Okay I have one.
Fish dogs. Go sell that one. Actually come to think of it that is not original material. I took it from myself. I co-wrote a screenplay that is for sale. Actually four and a half of them by myself or with others. In the one I am recalling here a young guy working for an advertising agency has just one night to come up with a catchy jingle for a major Japanese client's new fish dog dish by the next open of business deadline. Of course I cannot tell you how it ends, you will have to go see how it turns out after the movie is made. Then I probably will not be writing blogs. But not to worry I do not not know of anything too imminent in the works for a Max Money movie script sale.
Just in case Martin Scorcese is reading this blog I think he would be interested to know that the screenplay which I co-authored is very much in the genre of Something Wild, which if I remember correctly was about a young man who although quite sheltered finds himself spending a night at the mercy of a wild woman at first grudgingly but then intrigued as she takes him on a cathartic journey through another world she shares with an outlandish cast of characters.
Anyway it only seems fair and helpful to share some reported numbers on how viewership is going for this blog. So for the last day according originally to Google as of this writing published mostly undedited Max Money that is me had 53 pageviews. Next time I probably will report again on the past day. We will see how things are going.
Although that number might rather easily be manipulated I imagine depending on when one wrote the most recent posts. I believe I saw a "gadget" available to report viewership directly on the public site for those of us really eager to humiliate ourselves. I believe that one might be better on one of the below Max Money blogs that is not so esoteric as this blog. Wait a second, what is wrong with me, what about whichever blog does the best?
Now as for the ads I guess we just need to look around the posts and see what is being advertised. I at this time have no comment on that matter other than, yes, Max Money is grateful for the ads. I hope that they lead to nothing but fulfillment all around. I cannot say that I immediately saw the bargain/luxury angle making an exact connect with the ads when I snuck up on them in the middle of the night. Well at least they just did not all just say "Google is Great". I must give them that. Yes, I know they were probably watching me watch them while they were also showing the world my house and all my neighbors out on the streets. In any case how am I Max Money to say. I am not an ad guy. Me, I am a blog guy.

Just in case Martin Scorcese is reading this blog I think he would be interested to know that the screenplay which I co-authored is very much in the genre of Something Wild, which if I remember correctly was about a young man who although quite sheltered finds himself spending a night at the mercy of a wild woman at first grudgingly but then intrigued as she takes him on a cathartic journey through another world she shares with an outlandish cast of characters.
Anyway it only seems fair and helpful to share some reported numbers on how viewership is going for this blog. So for the last day according originally to Google as of this writing published mostly undedited Max Money that is me had 53 pageviews. Next time I probably will report again on the past day. We will see how things are going.
Although that number might rather easily be manipulated I imagine depending on when one wrote the most recent posts. I believe I saw a "gadget" available to report viewership directly on the public site for those of us really eager to humiliate ourselves. I believe that one might be better on one of the below Max Money blogs that is not so esoteric as this blog. Wait a second, what is wrong with me, what about whichever blog does the best?
Now as for the ads I guess we just need to look around the posts and see what is being advertised. I at this time have no comment on that matter other than, yes, Max Money is grateful for the ads. I hope that they lead to nothing but fulfillment all around. I cannot say that I immediately saw the bargain/luxury angle making an exact connect with the ads when I snuck up on them in the middle of the night. Well at least they just did not all just say "Google is Great". I must give them that. Yes, I know they were probably watching me watch them while they were also showing the world my house and all my neighbors out on the streets. In any case how am I Max Money to say. I am not an ad guy. Me, I am a blog guy.

Now Blog Away Where Every Day Is A New Day Even If It Is The Same Day To Blog Away
Friday, 13 September 2013, PALMER, AK - Alright that is the Max Money way! And have we got some others on board who are already blogging away. We are learning how this works. Now what Max Money's family has to say is: "Does this mean you are buying us dinner today?" Well since this new blog we have here is all about living well by working smart I guess that means it is steak tonight! Pizza steak everybody that is right.
HA! That is a joke. But now I am thinking of all the good meals that we can have that are a good value, too. We sincerely think of all the best we have found out there and share. For me it is like seeing a good movie that makes one feel as if one can do anything. That leaves one satisfied. Most everyone naturally feels better when they believe that they have gotten their money's worth.
As I was saying in the first post the first new thing that I have tried to learn today is how to pick one of all these videos and get something out of it that is worthwhile. That way I could pass it on to you. The one I watched was about a young man who half-tried for quite a while to make some money blogging. However it was not until his Senior year of college that he really put his mind to it.
He went for it all or nothing as he was the only one from his family in the United States so that when he finished college he had to be able to support himself. There would be no choice about it as when he was done with that year there would be nowhere for him to go and take a "breather" until he went out into the real world. He would just find himself there like it or not.
So what he did was hole himself up in his college room and soak take in all the information that he could about supporting himself blogging. He studied all those different informational summaries and what they had to teach him. Both about things that people had learned worked and things that did not. He learned all kinds of things about the color and placement of ads. He found that the tips he learned were true. Things he did in certain recommended ways tended to get the predicted results. It really was possible to make accurate predictions about how readers would respond to advertisements following all the information that just seemed overwhelming at first.
Well Max Money that is me did tell you I would let you know what I learned. In the first videos I learned that a blogger needs to find a "keyword" for something that people are seeking and then about five minor related keywords to go along with it. Readers here are welcome to follow along with me, but most readers will see that that might just be a good starting point for encouragement.
Anyway as we bloggers are seeing today this blog is meant to be about value. I have to think of the things that I have gotten that I have felt were a good value. The more things I have found like that in life the better my standard of living is because it takes less work to make my life richer and better when I make the right choices. Simple but true.
So now until I learn more I will have to see if that draws the kind of advertisers and readers together who believe the same thing. And then I guess it is corny, but we really can say they "click".
Man, that is corny. If I cannot do any better tomorrow. . . .

The Max Money Way To Live Better While Working Less - Work Smart Spend Smart Wtih Ads That Make Sense!
Friday, 13 September 2013, RABBIT, ALASKA - Have you ever woken up and thought that once upon a time you just naturally knew how to do the right things. Then they taught you how to do everything all wrong? By accident. They did not really mean to make that happen. It just gradually happened. Until one day you realized that bit by bit you had been taught to do things all wrong so that it took about ten times as long to get about ten times less done all wrong than when you felt as if you were doing nothing at all yet it went perfectly.
Well now that I have been trying to learn things so hard to teach what I already did not know that I cannot even remember my password. Like the General who was made head of the C.I.A. because President Obama had to do something after that General said things that were insubordinate about him to Rolling Stone magazine. You could see right away it was one of those Catch-22 situations where the President who is the Commander-In-Chief had to do something about the matter right out on the tarmac.
Either fire him which kind of makes it look like the President is not really in charge after all if he is President and that is all he can do. Or show that you a bigger Commander-In-Chief than that and promote him or whatever being made head of the C.I.A. is after he was a General. I think it shows what the President thinks it means.
Anyway after that there was no choice left because once he was head of the C.I.A. he wrote e-mails to his girlfriend using a password that they did not even have to call in the N.S.A. to decrypt. They just guessed it.
So with that in mind we Moneys have been eyeing all the Blogger teaching materials and wishing there was a table of contents or something because you really cannot tell if there is just one more thing to read, and you will become the best Blogger there ever was, or you will spend the rest of your life following arrows to the next page and then a video and then forget your password and have to read about making passwords again and so on.
At least in terms of how much of that Adsense action you get. It would appear that there are entire countries that you have never even heard of that are living off of Adsense. They make money off of VALID clicks with Google sending out checks to everybody because everything is just the right color in the right place the right size with the right keywords that people just want to click those ads. Anyway I found out that there are also several thousand videos from which to learn more tricks of the trade. Do not worry I will sum them up for you. So far I have learned that we need to find a "niche" where they are just dying to click on some very fancy keywords that no one else has. I think we will jofust put all that aside for the moment however and focus on value and living better from working less.
Well now I just got off of the telephone with Miss Money from Outside (in Alaska "Outside" is where we call everyplace else except Alaska). She just spent all day getting a free replacement phone under warranty for $20 after spending six hours on "hold" then going into the store so she did not have to wait two months which is a long time to wait with a broken phone that is guaranteed but makes "beeps" and cuts you off for no reason. She told me I taught her everything she knows about negotiating. It is the Money way.
Now it is time to get this new blog rolling. Add another passive income stream to the rivers of dollars to the bays of big money the seas of silver the gulfs of gold the sky with diamonds over the planet of platinum. And trees.
