Kay, so I surfed the net yesterday, looking for some opinions on how to earn money this summer. I found something that offers you huge money. You know. This scheme "PPC" or to answer the survey and they will give you money. I asked some ppl here in yahoo answers and they said that they really earn money through this. The problem is these websites pay through PayPal or Alertpay. Do you know any websites that uses a different system that doesn’t involve this two? Like sending it through a Western Union or something. Btw I live here in the Philippines.
To some of the Filipinos out there who already tried this type of “home business” please help me. Cause I don’t like sending my credit card number they might hack it.
If this surveying thing isn’t a good idea please recommend one that do pay. But not through PayPal cause I had a problem with paypal before. I have another job in the morning this is just an extra income. I really really need a huge money right now.

Thanks!

Unfortunately when just starting out the number 1 thing you need is a paypal account. But if you publish google ads they do pay directly into your account.
However it takes a little bit of knowledge to get it all started.

Ok my mom started me in surfing lessons and i know i can do the big waves but does anybody know some tips for me while im in the water how to not fall off my board i really need help….PLEASE! Ok well thank you, everyone:D Allsmiles:D

"im starting surfing lessons" and "i know i can surf big waves" but you dont know how to stop falling off?

Keep doing the surfing lessons on small waves, you’re not ready for big waves.

I’m a newbie learning to surf in New Jersey and I want to find a place with small and consistent waves perfect for a beginner. Are there any good beginner surf beaches in North or South Jersey Shore?

Probably Sea Bright, or Sandy Hook.

EDIT: Sorry, North Jersey, not really… South Jersey, Wildwood Crest.

I’m looking to find out as much about the online surfing community as I can. Can anyone recommend their favorite blogs, twitter handles, or sites that you find most comprehensive? Which ones are most popular? Thanks!

Probably your best bet is to locate the site targeted at your local region. If you want general sites, I’ve found those below are often interesting and have comprehensive information on a regular basis.

The #1 surfing blog site on yahoo is worldwidesurfers. It started out for surfers in the Washington DC, Maryland, and Virginia communities, but now has members from all over the world, including a couple of surfing hall of fame members, posting there on a regular basis.

Another good site is google groups alt.surfing. This is the oldest blog site. There is a crew posting on the site that has used it for years. I first posted on the site when it started up around 1993 or 1994.

Second light is a great site for the Florida crowd. Lots of interesting posts in a number of catagories. Oregon has a similar site for locals called the Oregon Surf Report.

The Glide has some interesting posts and information, particularly if you like to follow the pro circuit.

For shaping info, the Swaylocks forum is definately the place to visit.

Man teaches alpaca to surf

Mar-30-2010 By admin

It’s a bit like a camel and a bit like a llama, so you wouldn’t think an alpaca would be able to surf. A man in Peru has tried teaching it anyway. Follow us on twitter at http://twitter.com/itn_extreme

How do you paint a surf board?

Mar-28-2010 By admin

I’ve gotten some good ideas from ya’ll, and I’m now ready to start the journey. I should have mentioned that this 6 foot 1 inch funny board is going to be strictly ordanental and I will be hanging it on my wall of my Apartment. Should I wet sand it? Can I use glossy white paint to make that new shinney surf board look come out? How do I hang it and with what? What grade sand paper should I use? What kind of primer should I use? Thanks Guys.

sand it, to get the glossy off it, then use a good oil base primer, KILZ, then use good quality high gloss oil based latex paints and good brushes.

my hair is shoulder length, very fine. thanks for the help.

before you go to bed, curl it in ringlets…because your hair is fine, by morning the ringlets will have stretched to pretty waves. dont forget to use hairspray though (before and after you curl)
