It’s interesting what you can learn on the net. I have learnt a lot I tell you.

I officially have a car and I am going to sit my restricted today. My nerves are in my ears man. Apparently, that is supposed to make me better at driving. I’ll be alright I suppose. Even if I fail, well just sit for it again. It will be a bitch and a waste of time but it has to be done. Just do like my instructor said and book it straight away. Hope I don’t fail though. I’m just going to imagine that I am in the car with him on one of my lessons so I’ll do everything like he taught me, just listen to his voice in my head.

That should get me by… Well, I guess I will have to give you an update once it’s over. Everyone is trying to give me helpful tips. It’s good, but just a little overwhelming. I have to pass. I’ll get such shit if I don’t.

Right now I am like coming up with any and every possible way to get money. Thinking outside the box is what it is all about. I hope to god they re-introduce the incentive scheme at Woosh because I would desperately like to get a 3k payout. Talk about shit timing. I am going to be there for the whole of July and hopefully, if I can handle it the month of August as well. I’m pretty sure I can handle it…

I aim to clear my personal loan by mid-July and one of my credit cards by the end of August. It’s all good saying that of course. It’s a little less easy actually doing it though.

I had another couple of brainwaves.
First, I was thinking of signing up with a modelling agent. Not to do like a whole lot of fashion articles or anything, but what I am really looking for is just one commercial. I was talking to James, who has been in a commercial before, and he got about 3k after tax and then every time the contract rolls over, he gets paid out again. So that’s all I want. Not too keen on doing it long term because it’s too hard with a job. I’m probably not too keen on doing it immediately either because it’s virtually impossible when you are trying to juggle two jobs. It’s better that Woosh though and it means I will have more time out of work, but I just need something steady at the moment.

Maybe I’ll do it next year. When I’m like not working at all. Besides I don’t think my other half would approve of me doing the whole modelling thing (even though it’s not technically modelling) maybe if he saw the cash he would be a little happier about it. I should have auditioned for that modelling job in Singapore though. I mean 10,000 dollars is a lot of money.

That brought me to my next idea. Game shows. And why the hell not. They are all stupid but the money is real and your chances are higher than winning Lotto. Besides, the only reason why these people loose is because they’re greedy. And I’m not. Hell, I’ll take any deal that gives me 5,000+. That is all I really need. Anything extra would be nice but not mandatory. So from the beginning; there is this new game show in NZ called ‘Deal or No Deal’

Basically, there are 26 (or something around that figure) suitcases in front of you. All the suitcases have cash values in them ranging from 50 cents to 200,000 dollars. You pick yourself a suitcase and then proceed to open the other suitcases in front of you. Anything you open, you can’t have. At certain intervals (after you open six suitcases, then maybe after you open another 4) the guy will offer you a deal of a certain cash amount and it is up to you to decide whether to take the deal or not. If you do you get the cash, if you don’t you continue eliminating suitcases until you get to the last one in which case you open your suitcase and claim whatever value it holds.
It works something like that anyway, I have never actually watched it on TV but I am definitely going to start
And then I am going to audition for it.

Hehe. Complete Genuis

yeah that show is wikkid!
i like the ads they run for it with those hot chicks carrying the numbered suitcases, yeah go for it i reckon as well, easy money, not sure but i think u have to do your own tax though coz i heard some stuff about ppl getting shit from authorities for not taxing what they won on gameshows. bleh whatever money is money. I have my own sorta practical (not really) money earning scheme. read my blog.
