Aquí estamos, en un nuevo post con podcast incluido, ésta vez tengo en ENORME placer (y si lo escribo en mayúsculas) de presentaros a uno de mis twitteros favoritos, aunque a decir verdad, creo que es el primero de todos! Un alma divertida, con sentido del humor, admirador de Juaquín Reyes (que incluso lo recomienda) y un millón de cosas más, hacen de Alberto, una persona admirada y querida por muchísimos cibernautas dentro y fuera de la red. La intención de ésta entrevista, nació por la campaña en twitter que @BlogdeBori ha iniciado, tras la presentación de @Pixelillo en los premios Bitacoras como MicroBlogger del año. El Podcast Dura una hora y veinte minutos, y está llena de opiniones y anécdotas que tan solo descubriréis si le dais al play. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/labischita/message

Ähm, verzeihung, aber was bitte ist Stil? Für die einen das Ende des Besens, für andere das A und O wenn es um den eigenen Swag geht. So auch für unseren heutigen Gast Daniel. Sneakerhead, Fashionfreak, Microblogger und hat auch bisschen was mit Fußball am Gucci-Hut. Gemeinsam sprechen wir über Selbstvermarktung und das Ausleben seines eigenen Individualismus im Sport und drehen ganz nebenbei, wie eins Money Boy, einfach mal den Swag auf.

This week’s guest is Helge, a Norwegian living in Portugal. He’s been on Micro.blog since the Kickstarter launch in 2017, but he has become more active on his microblog during the pandemic. He has many interests and hobbies, from photography to German cinema to smoking meats. We try to cover them all in this episode.

These days, most people take their devices for granted. As an antidote to this, I speak with fellow Microblogger and tech hobbyist, Andrew Canion. We share our early memories of computing, our current preferences, touch-typing origin stories and how we both ended up choosing the Mac as the hub of our digital lives. Last, we … Continue reading "28. A Potted Computing History with Special Ordinary Guest Andrew Canion"

The Microblogger known as But She’s A Girl is a biologist based in Birmingham UK who has “too many interests” outside her professional life: cycling, programming, photography, music, sewing, and crocheting. We talk about these interests, blogging, and the album A Pocket of Wind Resistance. It took me a while to appreciate the model, that it is more about people posting on their own blogs, essentially, and other people following along with that in a centralized place… I really like the tone of the way that people post on Micro.blog. It feels like a very human place to be, where people treat each other with respect and humanity.

Jim founded Microblogger, where he teaches aspiring bloggers how to grow their businesses and earn a sustainable income. He got his start with Bargaineering, a personal finance blog that was acquired for $3 million.

  Jim Wang became a millionaire through his finance blog Bargaineering.  He sold the site and started Microblogger.  Let’s hang with an internet millionaire. Jim could easily have quit working when he sold his site but that’s not what millionaires do.  His life also didn’t change much when he became a millionaire, something that all of our millionaires have had in common, they avoided lifestyle inflation. Whether Jim had $10,000 or $1,000,000, he treated his money the same.  Invest it in the stock market and know that over forty years, it will grow.  Looking at your numbers day to day can lead to poor decisions.  Set it and forget it.  He slow dripped his money in and bought when others were selling in a panic.  Jim monitors the number about once a month just to make sure things are where they should be. Jim keeps up the Joneses but not in the way you would expect.  He found success at a young age so when he reads other success stories, it helps to keep the fire alive.  Comparing yourself to others can hurt you but it can help you to continue to achieve too. Thirty four is too young to give up any kind of work for life on the golf course. Success didn’t land in Jim’s lap.  He was working a forty or fifty hour week job when he started Bargaineering in 2004 and would work an additional thirty hours a week on the site.  He did this for four years.  Four years of eighty hour weeks is not the definition of success being handed to you. A lot of people who have side businesses continue their day job even after the side gig starts to pay well or even better than the day job.  Because they think the job is more stable.  But that’s such a misconception and it’s holding a lot of talented people back.  The fact is, you aren’t privy to your day jobs finances.  Things could seem to you to be going along great and one day you’re fired because the company filed for bankruptcy.  When it’s your own thing, you know exactly where things are financially. If you’re thinking of taking the leap from your day job to your own thing, check out Jim’s site.  The man has lived the journey.

When I started Bargaineering in 2005, the words “location independent lifestyle” had not yet been put together to mean what it does today.

Many years ago, internet marketers around the world shouted this “incredible” strategy from the rooftops: “If you could build a site that made $50 a month, all you had to do was make 100 of them and you’d create yourself a nice little income.” All true.

Everyone agrees that differentiation is crucial. If you want to avoid being another face in the crowd, you have to stand out.

 Listener Daniel Murrell to analyze his financial situation.  He shares a great strategy for making college affordable. Daniel is twenty three, lives in Southern California, works and goes to school.  And he has a smooooth voice.  Daniel works in overnight freight for Home Depot.  Daniel shares an apartment with his brother.  His portion of the rent is $475 a month and the utilities are $65 a month.  Daniel makes about $1300 a month, paid bi-weekly.  He’s able to use one check for living expenses. He drives a motor cycle to work rain or shine.  Daniel’s transportation situation is one of the things working for him and working against him. He rides his motorcycle to work rain or shine.  Daniel bought the bike used, spends $13 for gas a week and pays $140 a year for insurance.  However, Daniel bought a car with a personal loan a few years ago.  The car is long gone, traded in for the awesome bike but he’s stuck with the payment.  The balance on the loan is about $3500. Daniel is investing monthly in Betterment.  He has a few credit cards with $0 balances one with a small limit that usually carries a balance.  Daniel keeps about $800 in an emergency fund. What can Daniel do better?  The biggest problem is the personal loan used to buy the car.  Daniel is no stranger to hard work.  In the past he has worked multiple jobs and doesn’t mind doing so again.  By picking up another job for a few months, Daniel can get that loan paid off and use that money to invest more in Betterment.  Daniel should keep his unused credit cards open.  Closing those cards will lower his credit rating by shortening the length of his credit history and lowering his available line of credit. What did Daniel teach us?  He goes to school for two semesters, takes a semester off to work and pay off the previous semesters.  Genius!  This is something all students should consider. We also steered Daniel to Jim Wang’s site Microblogger so he can monetize some of his hobbies.  But I think he should do voice over work or record audio books.  People would pay to listen to Daniel read from the phone book!

Be authentic. That’s a common piece of advice most bloggers hear and read over and over again. I know I say it all the time.
