HubPagesSucks: Fu_k* You HubPages:
**Fuucck** Hubpages. I started hubpages last week. After adding all by blogs to my hubs for backlinks. I got my hubs suspended. It appears they do not like blogger.com I thought writing hubs would increasemy profits. But it was all a waste of time.

Blogger Vrs Hubpages


I have been blogging for years on blogger.com. Blogger.com currently has a high rating in Google.  Probably because it is owned and operated by Google    Blogger also lets you customize your blogs to your liking. Now a day’s people own more than 4 or 5 blogs and I have over 10 blogs. Blogger has a PageRank of 7/10,it has  the highest of all websites.   Blogger also  has more value.  I have decided to on blogger.com for some time and have watch my traffic to my blogs increase.  Not just the PageRank made me to go for this decision but a few other reasons, like I can write whatever I feel like writing about. , I can edit it whenever I want. It gives the blog  an official look, Or I can give it a casual look. I have Google Annalistic monitoring my website trafficto all my blogs. I also have utilized some good SEO tips. Just last week I started using Hubpages.
Using Hubpages, once when the author is successful, have a popular hub, it automatically tags the authors work and rank them high. However on  blogger I need to take every step and effort of making it popular. Understanding that  Triond and Hubpages use your name gaining high rank on SERP and a good SEO rating on search engines.  Promoting yourself on blogger.com is an imperative part for your true. At Triond and Hubpahes you're not authorized to advertise your own selling products or attach any kind of your business properties. For example, If you have an Ecommerce store. There are very strict on their rules and regulations.
I only posted 3 hubs on hubpages.  I have around 65 people view my hubs. All though I have had 1,000’s view my blogs.  Hubpages is OK; it is a more simplified version on posting articles you write.   I like to post something every day either a hub or a blog.  The more you post, the better odds you have on making money. Hubpages is very basic when it comes to page layout or customizing your hub. Posting a hub is really easy.  They made it user friendly. Blogger.com lets you be way more creative then Hubpages.  You can make money on both using Google Adsense.  However Blogger lets you place the Google-ads where you want. Hubpages just places them for you.  I was reading a Hubpage post when I read about Triond. Triond has a PageRank 5/10 as of today. I figured I would sign up and give it a try. Today is the first day I am using Triond.  So, I will give some time.  This is my first post on triond.  I hope to gain some readers. On second thought. Do not wast your time using Triond.  After writing this post. It dot Denied.

Should You Loan Money to a Friend?


If you have money and friends, the situation is bound to come up sooner or later – your buddy wants to get a loan from you. Should you loan money to a friend? Shakespeare didn’t think so. In Hamlet, ol’ Will has this line: “Neither a borrower nor a lender be; For loan oft loses both itself and friend.” An old Scottish proverb echoes this sentiment: “Lend your money and lose your friend.” Maybe these folks were right about the wisdom of not loaning money to friends, but I haven’t experienced any problems, personally, with making personal loans to pals.
I’ve given short term loans to friends many times, and I’ve never been disappointed. My pals have always paid me back when they said they would. Maybe I’m the exception. I’ve read lots of sad tales of how personal loans have destroyed close friendships. Heck, you see it on court TV shows all the time. Two lifelong best buds will be ready to kill each other over a personal loan. So should you or shouldn’t you loan money to a friend?
I think much of the answer depends on your friend or friends. First of all, don’t even consider loaning money if you don’t know the person well. You should have been in a friendly relationship long enough to have judged the other person’s character accurately. When I loan money to a friend, I’ve decided that the friend is trustworthy and honest. Through time, that pal and I have established a friendship based on trust and mutual respect.
If you have a not-so-close pal who’s in dire straits and wants to get a loan, just give her the money, if you can afford it. If she’s a real friend and a person of good character, she’ll repay you if and when she gets on her feet, even though she doesn’t have to.
Tips to successfully loan money
Reason the friend wants to get a loan: Why does Bob want to get a loan from you? This is a key aspect for some friend-lenders. Some people don’t want to loan money unless it’s for an emergency situation, while others don’t really care what the loan money is to be used for. Personally, if one of my close friends needs to get a loan from me, I don’t care how the money is to be used.
A low-interest loan or a no-interest loan? You'll have to decide whether you'll be extending a low-interest loan or a no-interest loan to your pal. If the loan is for a small amount of money, and it's repaid quickly, you might want to make it a no-interest loan. On the other hand, if the loan is for a larger amount and will be repaid over an extended period of time, you might want to charge interest. You could still help the friend out by making it a low-interest loan, with better rates than they'd get at a bank.
Make sure the terms are fully understood by both parties. The terms should include the amount of the loan, any interest involved, and when it will be repaid. For larger amounts of money, you’ll probably want to get all the specifics of the loan in writing. Make sure it’s dated, signed by both parties, and witnessed by a third party. Make copies and give the borrower one. You keep the original in a safe place.
Set up a payment plan for the loan. If your pal wants to get a personal loan just until payday, or when they get their income tax refund, you won’t need to set up monthly payments for such a short term loan. For a long term loan, set up a realistic schedule for repayment – something the friend can afford and that you can live with.
What if the friend can’t repay the loan? Always discuss this possibility. Stuff happens, and it happens on a regular basis! Let’s say your pal gets $500 as a Christmas gift every year from her grandmother. The friend is short of cash in November, so she wants to borrow $500 from you, and she promises to pay it back at Christmas when she gets the money from Grandma. What if Granny dies or loses all her money in the stock market before Christmas ever rolls around? In that case, your pal won’t get her money, so you won’t get yours, either. Now what? The short term loan has likely just become a long term loan. You can formulate a weekly or monthly repayment plan, or you can figure out some other way for your friend to repay you. Unless you really need the cash, you could use the barter system. Maybe you have some jobs around the house that need doing, like repainting your garage or staining your deck. The borrower could complete such jobs in lieu of repaying you with money.
Should you get a loan from a friend?
I’ve been on this side of the equation, also. I’ve had to get personal loans from friends a couple of times. I hated to ask, but there have been a few times when I’ve had to get a loan. These were short term loans, and none of them were very large. Since I repaid the loans very quickly, I feel sure I can get a loan again from the same pals should the need arise. Except for one close friend, the loans were made to me by friends I’ve made loans to. We’ve helped each other out several times with short term loans. So if you have no other choice, you might be forced to get a loan from a pal. How should you go about this? Read on for how to borrow money!
How to borrow money
For how to borrow money from a friend, follow the above guidelines. Go to your friend and explain why you need to borrow money. Telling her why you need to get a personal loan might be important to her. Tell her exactly when and how you’ll repay her. Suggest to her that both of you sign a written contract. This will make her feel like you’re serious about repaying the loan. Don’t borrow any more than you have to or more than you can repay. For short term loans, you might not need a repayment schedule, but for long term loans, you probably will. Most of all, don’t get a loan from a friend unless you have to.

Florida Certified Domestic Violence Center Thrift Store Locations | Florida Coalition Against Domestic Violence

Florida Certified Domestic Violence Center Thrift Store Locations | Florida Coalition Against Domestic Violence:
If you come home one day and your loved one is gone.  You have heard that they went to a domestic shelter. Many of these shelters have these thrift stores as disguise.   They say that it is a private location and can not be found.  Yea, OK. Thanks to me and Google. We have made it easy to find.  Below are a few county's in Florida  where these locations can be found. These shelters are for woman only.  There is nothing out there  for men when they are hit by a woman.  Florida is a Bi-est state.  They favor the women. 



Many of the Domestic Violence Centers have fully operational thrift stores as a part of their mission. Donations of clothing, home goods, furniture and more from the public are re-sold and one hundred percent of the proceeds generated by the store go straight back to the center to provide funding for the crucial services provided to survivors of domestic violence.
Thrift shops are a vital part of the services provide by the center. In addition to raising money to support domestic violence services, the shops serve as department stores for their clients. Many women come to shelter with nothing but the clothing on their backs. Sometimes that's a hospital gown. Every woman who has a need is given an opportunity to select what she needs to start a new life, free from domestic violence. In this way, women are treated with dignity and have the opportunity to shop for their preferences and sizes.
Survivors benefit from items donated to the thrift stores and often are able to build a career wardrobe for an important job interview or select home goods and furnishings to help them rebuild a new home. We encourage you to search the list below to find your local thrift store and donate today!
