Money Maker Blog

Welcome to the Mattam Money Maker Blog. As the title suggests the main purpose of this blog is to help you (and me) make money using the knowledge and personal experience I have gained in the last few years that I am now going to share.

In our current climate of soaring food and fuel prices and rising mortgage costs we could all do with a little extra cash to make our lives easier. My posts will include methods on how to make money, in addition to guidance on how to save money. As the saying goes ‘A penny saved is as good as a penny earned’!

The key to success, and I cannot stress this enough, is information, but not just any information. Good information or advice is essential when trying to make or save money and whilst the internet is full of information on any topic imaginable, it is often hard to know where to go and what to trust.

This is what I will attempt to do by providing useful, honest and up-to-date advice that is easy to follow. Furthermore, should you encounter any problems feel free to ask by sending any questions to the following email address: admin@mattammoneymaker.com

I will now give a brief introduction about myself so that you know a little about who I am. My name is Tom and I am 27 years old. I graduated from Bristol University 5 years ago and ever since I began my working career I have been looking for ways to gain some additional income. Having tried almost everything including; car boots, Amazon & E-Bay selling, horse racing and other gambling, E-book selling, paid surveys, affiliate marketting, even Forex trading, I have found a multitude of avenues all with varying potential to make some extra cash.

By experimenting with different methods I have found what works and what doesn’t (for me), which ideas I enjoy doing and those which my personal skills suit best. This is important as not every money making / saving idea will suit everyone depending on your level of experience, time commitments and also level of interest. Like many aspects of life we often do best in the things that we enjoy doing as we are more focussed and committed.

My ultimate goal has always been to work for myself full time in some manner and do away with the boring 9 to 5 job. Most of us accept from an early age that a job is an unavoidable part of life and that without one our lifestyles are extremely restricted. However, why should we work hard only to ultimately pay the fat-cats at the top huge bonuses when we are expected to settle for a measly 5% pay-rise each year. Generally it doesn’t matter how much effort you put into your day job it often goes unnoticed and unrewarded. BUT if you work for yourself, even if it is part-time, you can see the benefits of putting in that extra 10%! This has been my philosophy for a long time and the more effort you dedicate to making your own money, the more successful you will become. If you work for yourself you also have the flexibility of the hours you work and you don’t have to put up with any obnoxious colleagues or dictator like bosses.

Since this is my very first blog, it may appear a little rough around the edges to begin with and don’t be surprised if it looks different every time you visit, as I will be experimenting a lot with this over the next few months.

I am going to try a slightly different format from other blogs as each idea I post will be labelled as either ‘Money Making’ or ‘Money Saving’. Additionally, each idea will be rated according to how difficult it is to implement, how much money you are likely to save or make and any investment costs involved. Hopefully this format should help readers decide which ideas are best suited to their particular needs and level of experience and commitment. Overtime there will be a large collection of ‘Money Making‘ or ‘Money Saving‘ ideas available for both newbies and the more experienced.

Feel free to browse around my site, especially the useful links I have provided in the right hand column.
