BANKS BATTLING FOR YOUR BUCKS...

The Battle of the Savings Accounts April 8, 2019 Advertiser Disclosure There are a few banks that pay 20x the interest of most others, but how do they stack up against each other?

Continue reading to find out the winner of the battle of the savings accounts! It's a well-known fact that interest rates on savings accounts are incredibly low.

In fact, the average savings account is hovering atound 0.10%.1 That's such a far cry from pre-crisis times, it's shocking.

At rates that low one might ask, "Why even have a savings account? Why don't I just place my hard-earned money under the mattress?" We can't blame you. However, if you did that you'd be leaving money on the table (or under the mattress).

There are much better options out there; savings accounts that earn twenty times the average rate of 0.10%. We've looked high and low to find some of the best accounts.

You'd be in great shape if you had any of these accounts, but after some thorough analysis and comparison, one of them stands above the rest. Here they are at a glance: At A Glance: High-Yield Savings Accounts & MMAs Oct 10, 2019 Min. for APY : $0 APY: 1.90% Capital One Member FDIC | Savings Account Introducing 360 Performance Savings-All Balances Earn 1.90% AP Open Account Oct 9, 2019 Min. for APY : $1 APY: 1.90%

American Express National Bank Member FDIC | Savings Account No monthly fee. Competitive APY. 24/7 account access. Open Account Oct 9, 2019 Min. for APY : $1,000 APY: 2.00%

State Farm Bank Member FDIC | Money Market Account Intro APY, $1,000 to Open, $5,000 Min Bal post intro, See Limits Open Account Savings Rates Provided By Bankrate.com | Disclaimer We were just as taken aback when we first saw these numbers. 1.9% and 1.9%?

Why didn't I hear of these accounts before I put my money in [large, untrustworthy bank X]? You might be saying to yourself, "State Farm Bank is clearly the winner because their APY is slightly higher." However, you can't jump to a conclusion as there are other important factors to consider when opening a savings account.

So we've broken them each down, piece by piece. Monthly Minimums Some banks require that you have a minimum in your account in order to avoid a monthly charge. Bank of America, for example, requires that you have $300 in your account.

Of the three banks listed, Capital One and American Express National Bank are both great because they don't require a minimum fee. But considering all factors, one has a slight advantage over the other. Winner: Capital One  

Bank Reputation, this might not have been very important to us before the financial crisis, but times have changed. We need to feel safe with where we put our hard-earned money.

Each of these banks are backed by the maximum allowable FDIC guarantee of $250,000. This means if the bank defaults, the US Government would repay you every penny you had in the account, up to $250,000. Bank of America, Chase, etc. all have this same insurance.

More than just the FDIC insurance, we need reliability and value from our bank. So here is how the top banks fare in terms of reputation: Capital One bank is one of the most popular online banks in the country, and even offers customers in some regions with access to bank branches.

Though customers have fewer branches to visit, they'll have something more relevant: cutting-edge digital bank features. American Express has been around since 1850, and has been a federally recognized bank since 2008. They have extensive experience in handling financial services for a large amount of customers

State Farm offers a robust suite of deposit and lending products, with agents readily available to assist customers. After first building trust as an insurance firm, State Farm began bank operations in 1999 and has been building on their capabilities and consumer base since. This was a close call, but Capital One's reputation as one of the most popular online banks in the country earns it our vote for the winner of the bank reputation category! Winner: Capital One  

Customer Service and Ease of Use These companies all have good customer service according to online reviews. 3 star reviews don't sound great for a restaurant, but for an industry that's really suffering from an image problem, 3 star ratings are some of the best ratings received.

Comparatively, Bank of America had 1.6 stars, HSBC had 1.4 stars and Chase came in at 2.5 stars.

We use the experiences of hundreds of real people to help us rank which banks have the best customer experience, and in this online world we give extra credit to banks that make mobile banking easy! All of the banks' websites are state of the art and incredibly intuitive; and each has an "American English" speaking support team that is very attentive and easy to deal with. 

But with cutting-edge digital banking features and a top-rated mobile app that makes accessing your money easy as ever, Capital One has the edge here. Winner: Capital One Interest Rate, this one’s easy. Though these rates are well above the national average, only one can be the highest! Winner: State Farm Bank   Conclusion as we said in the beginning, you'd be in great shape if you had any of these accounts. In today's low-interest environment, we can't stress enough how every bit counts- and at 20x the national average, these rates will save you more than just a little bit.

It was a tough call, but in the end we had to give a slight nod to Capital One 360 because they are just doing everything well. 
They have great customer service, one of the highest interest rates available and there is no minimum to open an account.  So after all of our research, Capital One 360 was our winner of the best savings account! Winner: Capital One.

SNCC/SCLC...

The Martin Luther King, Jr. Research and Education Institute Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) Biography April 15, 1960 to May 1, 1971 Share this article on Facebook, Share this article on Twitter.

The Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) was founded in April 1960 by young people, dedicated to nonviolent, direct action tactics. 

Although Martin Luther King, Jr. and others had hoped that SNCC would serve as the youth wing of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), the students remained fiercely independent of King and SCLC, generating their own projects and strategies.
So Although ideological differences eventually caused SNCC and SCLC to be at odds, the two organizations worked side by side throughout the early years of the civil rights movement.

The idea for a locally based, student-run organization was conceived when Ella Baker, a veteran civil rights organizer and an SCLC official, invited black college students who had participated in the early 1960 sit-ins to an April 1960 gathering at Shaw University in Raleigh, North Carolina. Baker encouraged the more than 200 student attendees to remain autonomous, rather than affiliate with SCLC or any of the other existing civil rights groups.
King issued a press statement on the first day of the conference, characterizing the time as “an era of offensive on the part of oppressed people” (Papers 5:426). He called on the students to form “some type of continuing organization” and “to delve deeper into the philosophy of nonviolence,” advising: “Our ultimate end must be the creation of the beloved community” (Papers 5:427).

At the Raleigh Conference the students were generally reluctant to compromise the independence of their local protest groups, and voted to establish only a temporary coordinating body. Vanderbilt University theology student James Lawson, whose workshops on nonviolent direct action served as a training ground for many of the Nashville student protesters, drafted an organizational statement of purpose that reflected the strong commitment to Gandhian nonviolence that characterized SNCC’s early years: “We affirm the philosophical or religious ideal of nonviolence as the foundation of our purpose, the presupposition of our faith, and the manner of our action.

Nonviolence as it grows from Judaic-Christian traditions seeks a social order of justice permeated by love” (Lawson, 17 April 1960). In May 1960 the group constituted itself as a permanent organization and Fisk University student Marion Barry was elected SNCC’s first chairman.

SNCC’s emergence as a force in the southern civil rights movement came largely through the involvement of students in the 1961 Freedom Rides, designed to test a 1960 Supreme Court ruling that declared segregation in interstate travel facilities unconstitutional. The Congress of Racial Equality initially sponsored the Freedom Rides that began in May 1961, but segregationists viciously attacked riders traveling through Alabama. Students from Nashville, under the leadership of Diane Nash, resolved to finish the rides.

Once the new group of freedom riders demonstrated their determination to continue the rides into Mississippi, other students joined the movement. By the time the Interstate Commerce Commission began enforcing the ruling mandating equal treatment in interstate travel in November 1961, SNCC was immersed in voter registration efforts in McComb, Mississippi, and a desegregation campaign in Albany, Georgia, known as the Albany Movement.

King and SCLC later joined with SNCC in Albany, but tensions arose between the two civil rights groups.

The Albany effort, although yielding few tangible gains, was an important site of development for SNCC.

At the August 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, SNCC chairman John Lewis was one of those scheduled to speak. He intended to criticize John F. Kennedy’s proposed civil rights bill as “too little, and too late,” and to refer to the movement as “a serious revolution” (Lewis, 28 August 1963).
Lewis softened the tone of the delivered speech to appease A. Philip Randolph and other march organizers, but remained adamant that SNCC had “great reservations” regarding Kennedy’s proposed civil right legislation (Carson, 94). He warned his audience: “We want our freedom and we want it now” (Carson, 95).

In 1961 organizer Bob Moses moved to Jackson, Mississippi, and began organizing young Mississippi residents. Moses, who was firmly committed to non-hierarchical grassroots organizing, joined the SNCC staff and became voter registration director of Mississippi’s Council of Federated Organizations the following year.
He encountered considerable resistance to civil rights reform efforts, but the Mississippi voter registration effort created conditions for racial reform by bringing together three crucial groups: dynamic and determined SNCC field secretaries, influential regional and local civil rights leaders from Mississippi, and white student volunteers who participated in the “Freedom Vote” mock election of October 1963 and the Freedom Summer (1964).
Early in 1964, SNCC supported the formation of the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party in an effort to challenge the legitimacy of the state’s all-white Democratic Party.

The voting rights demonstrations that began in 1965 in Selma, Alabama, sparked increasingly bitter ideological debates within SNCC, as some workers openly challenged the group’s previous commitment to nonviolent tactics and its willingness to allow the participation of white activists.
Distracted by such divisive issues, the day-to-day needs of the group’s ongoing projects suffered. In many Deep South communities, where SNCC had once attracted considerable black support, the group’s influence waned. Nevertheless, after the Selma to Montgomery March, Stokely Carmichael and other SNCC organizers entered the rural area between Selma and Montgomery and helped black residents launch the all-black Lowndes County Freedom Organization, later known as the Black Panther Party.
Meanwhile, several SNCC workers established incipient organizing efforts in volatile urban black ghettos.

In May 1966 a new stage in SNCC’s history began with Carmichael’s election as chairman. Because Carmichael identified himself with the trend away from nonviolence and interracial cooperation, his election compromised SNCC’s relationships with more moderate civil rights groups and many of its white supporters.
During the month following his election, Carmichael publicly expressed SNCC’s new political orientation when he began calling for “Black Power” during a voting rights march through Mississippi.
The national exposure of Carmichael’s Black Power speeches brought increased notoriety to SNCC, but the group remained internally divided over its future direction. King responded directly to Carmichael’s and SNCC’s appeal for Black Power in his 1967 book, Where Do We Go from Here: Chaos or Community?

King argued, “effective political power for Negroes cannot come through separatism” (King, 48). Opposing exclusive support of black electoral candidates, King continued: “SNCC staff members are eminently correct when they point out that in Lowndes County, Alabama, there are no white liberals or moderates and no possibility for cooperation between the races at the present time. 
But the Lowndes County experience cannot be made a measuring rod for the whole of America” (King, 49). Even after the dismissal of a group of SNCC’s Atlanta field workers who called for the exclusion of whites, the organization was weakened by continued internal conflicts and external attacks, along with a loss of northern financial backing.

The election in June 1967 of H. “Rap” Brown as SNCC’s new chair was meant to reduce the controversy surrounding the group. Brown, however, encouraged militancy among urban blacks, and soon a federal campaign against black militancy severely damaged SNCC’s ability to sustain its organizing efforts. SNCC became a target of the Counterintelligence Program (COINTELPRO) of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in a concerted effort at all levels of government to crush black militancy through both overt and covert means.

The spontaneous urban uprisings that followed the assassination of King in April 1968 indicated a high level of black discontent. However, by then, SNCC had little ability to mobilize an effective political force. Its most dedicated community organizers had left the organization, which changed its name to the Student National Coordinating Committee.

Although individual SNCC activists played significant roles in politics during the period after 1968, and many of the controversial ideas that once had defined SNCC’s radicalism had become widely accepted among African Americans, the organization disintegrated. By the end of the decade, FBI surveillance of SNCC’s remaining offices was discontinued due to lack of activity.

SKIN FLUTE ..

Daniel Snyder doesn't pay attention if he did he would know Redskins tradition, he would know that Mark May has seen every college player in the country, he would know to look to ex Redskin greats, not scrub ex Buccaneers to build a winning staff!

Nothing personal against Jay Gruden, but Jay Gruden has never won!
Charlie Taylor, Russ Grimm, Joe Jacoby, Gary Clark, London Fletcher, Chris Hanburger, I mean come on, two or three of those guys should be on the coaching staff!

And it's just unbelievable that Mark May is not a player Personnel specialist, hell he's seen every player in the country, from Maryland to California working in the Network Industry.

At the end of the day, Daniel Snyder should sell the Redskins, because he doesn't have a clue, he claims he's a fan, but he has a Personnel impediment!

FAIR PAY TO PLAY???

ESPN Congressman to propose federal legislation for paying college athletes DAN MURPHY ESPN Staff Writer 11:23 AM ET5 Minute Read Jalen not confident California Fair Pay to Play Act will workJalen Rose doesn't see the Fair Pay To Play Act taking action in California, saying too many people in power don't want it to happen. U.S. Rep. Anthony Gonzalez, a former Ohio State football standout, is planning to propose a new national law to give college athletes the opportunity to make endorsement money. Gonzalez, a Republican from Ohio, said he believes the federal government needs to act quickly to avoid potential problems. California passed a state law Monday that prohibits colleges in that state from punishing college athletes if they accept money in exchange for the use of their name, image or likeness. The law, which will not go into effect until January 2023, does not require schools to pay their athletes directly. Lawmakers from more than a dozen other states have expressed interest in proposing similar laws or have already submitted proposals in recent weeks. Some of those proposals include other stipulations such as schools paying athletes directly or setting up funds for them to pay for health care after their careers in college athletics are over. The NCAA has said it recognizes the need to modify its current rules, which prohibit players from accepting any money from outside sources, but they strongly prefer one nationwide rule rather than each state coming up with slightly different variations. Gonzalez believes a federal law is the correct way to move forward. "I actually think that we need to do something quickly, within the next year," Gonzalez told ESPN. "I don't think you have three years to figure this out. I think decisions will start happening immediately." He said he wants to create legislation that gives athletes the chance to make money while also setting up some way to protect athletes from what Gonzalez described as "bad actors." "There are a lot of people who are trying to get a piece of the athlete who do not have their best interest in mind and are out for nefarious means," said Gonzalez, who was an All-Big Ten receiver at Ohio State before playing in the NFL for five years. "You can imagine a world where, if there were no guardrails in place, that it could get out of hand pretty quickly. That's the lane you're trying to carve. How do you do this to provide necessary and deserved benefits while not inviting a bigger problem alongside it?" Gonzalez said he has had informal conversations on the subject with Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith, the co-leader of a working group assembled by the NCAA to evaluate ways in which the association could change its rules on name, image and likeness rights. Smith is expected to report the group's recommendations to the NCAA's board of governors at the end of October. Gonzalez plans to wait to draft his legislation until after Smith makes his recommendation to the NCAA. Gonzalez said he has examined the issue with his staff in the past, but their conversation "kicked into gear" after California passed its new law Monday. There is already one federal bill related to name, image and likeness rights working its way through the legislature in Washington. Rep. Mark Walker from North Carolina has proposed changing the tax code to force the NCAA to allow players to make money from endorsements or risk losing their nonprofit tax exemptions. That bill is currently in front of the House Ways and Means Committee in the early part of its path through the lawmaking process. Gonzalez said he hasn't spoken with Walker directly, but said he has had conversations with various members of Congress. Walker's bill does not currently include the "guardrails" that Gonzalez thinks are necessary. Gonzalez said he thinks he will be able to garner bipartisan support when he makes his proposal at some point in the next few months. While he wants to take his time to make sure they draft a bill that properly addresses some of the consequences of allowing players to make more money, Gonzalez also feels a sense of urgency. California's law is three years away from going into effect, but juniors and seniors in high school who are currently making decisions on where they will play collegiate sports would be able to take advantage of the law by the time their collegiate careers are over. California's law could give schools in that state a strong recruiting advantage, which would prompt other states to move quickly to catch up. Florida state Rep. Chip LaMarca, for example, said he hopes to get a law on the books in his state as early as 2020. Gonzalez said a federal law would take precedent over state laws if one is passed, but he feels the need to move quickly to avoid confusion for young athletes who may take each state's new proposed approach into consideration when picking their schools. He said he plans to move forward soon after Smith and the NCAA make their recommendations. "My plan is to wait on that," Gonzalez said. "I trust Gene. I know he's thoughtful in this. ... I want to see that play out, and then he and I will have discussions on how we can solve the goals that we all have." Take ESPN Everywhere Download the #1 sports app © 2019 ESPN Internet Ventures.

ECONOMIC GROWTH BEGAN IN 2009...

Democracy Dies in Darkness Opinions Happy 10th birthday, U.S. economic expansion! Let’s hope you’ll be allowed to live a little while longer, despite a certain someone’s concerted efforts to kill you off.

The Great Recession officially ended — and the current recovery officially began — exactly a decade ago, in June 2009. That means we’ve now tied the record for the longest economic expansion on record, matching the 10-year business cycle upswing that ended in March 2001.

That’s quite an achievement, especially in light of the many policy missteps we’ve been subject to in the intervening years, including government shutdowns, trade wars and threats to central-bank independence.

It speaks to the hardiness of the U.S. economy. So, too, do most recently released major economic data — including payroll job growth, the 50-year low unemployment rate, gross domestic product growth — that remain very healthy.

So while statistically speaking, we might be overdue for a downturn, the economic fundamentals appear pretty good. And recoveries don’t merely die of old age; they get murdered. A negative shock does them in, or a collective crisis in confidence. Unfortunately, though, the temporary stimulus of the Republican tax cuts appears to be fading. And, meanwhile, a number of “softer” indicators suggest that the risks of a near-term slowdown, or even recession, are rising.

On Monday, for instance, two indexes measuring economic activity in the manufacturing sector were released. One, the Institute of Supply Management’s manufacturing index, dipped to its lowest level since 2016. Another, IHS Markit’s U.S. Manufacturing Purchasing Mana­gers’ Index, reached its lowest level in nearly a decade.
 
Note that both of these manufacturing checkups were based on surveys conducted before Trump announced his mind-numbingly idiotic tariffs on Mexican goods, which will cause even more trouble for U.S. manufacturers who rely on the unfettered flow of trade across our southern border.  

The auto industry, which has already announced more layoffs in the first four months of this year than in any comparable period since 2009, is especially vulnerable, given how much of the sector’s supply chain straddles the U.S.-Mexico border. Economists at Deutsche Bank estimated that if the president indeed ratchets tariffs on all Mexican goods all the way up to 25 percent, as he has threatened, the price of vehicles sold in the United States would rise by an average of about $1,300.  

And that’s not even counting the effects of Trump’s separate, auto-specific tariffs.  The administration has suggested these may soon be imposed upon both cars and car parts imported from around the world, as part of its attempt to gain leverage in trade negotiations with Japan and the European Union. According to an analysis by the Center for Automotive Research, depending on how narrowly tailored such duties might be, these taxes could raise U.S. car prices by anywhere from a few hundred dollars to several thousand dollars.

This looming tariff threat adds yet another layer of policy uncertainty to an economy already rife with plenty of it. So do the waning chances for ratification of Trump’s trade deal intended to replace the North American Free Trade Agreement. As do the risks surrounding the budget deal and debt-ceiling increase that Trump and Congress must eventually agree to over the several months ahead. 

These are hardly the only dispiriting economic developments of late.
There’s also the Treasury yield curve, which shows interest rates for bonds at different maturity dates.

Usually longer-term bonds have higher yields than shorter-term ones. But, for months now, that hasn’t been the case: the yield curve has at least partially “inverted.” Historically, this inversion has preceded downturns.

It signals that traders believe the economy is weak enough that the Fed will need to cut interest rates soon. Likewise, the National Association for Business Economics’s most recent survey, released on Monday, also found that private sector economists put the odds of a recession starting by the end of 2020 at 60 percent.

That’s nearly double the 35 percent odds respondents gave when surveyed in March. Like the latest manufacturing data, this survey was also conducted before Trump announced his Mexico tariffs, which suggests it actually may be understating economists’ present levels of pessimism. In fact, in the days since Trump’s Mexico tariff announcement, a number of Wall Street economists have sent out client notes saying that the chances of an interest-rate cut are now rising.

Based on Fed funds futures, the market appears to be pricing in an 85 percent chance of a September rate cut. Under normal circumstances, the idea that the Federal Reserve would contemplate cutting rates so soon after unemployment touched a half-century low would seem shocking. But hey, Trump has been arguing for a while that the Fed should cut rates; he’s now ginning up enough fear about the future of the U.S. economy that he could get his wish.

2. Become a freelancer If you have a talent, chances are, you can sell your skill. Whether you’re a writer, artist, graphic designer, photographer, etc., there’s a freelance gig for you. Let’s cover a few possible freelance angles for you to take. Freelance writing It’s easier than ever to become a freelance writer (all of our writers at Money Under 30 are freelancers). With that being said, if you’re just starting out it can be difficult to find a writing job that will pay you more than pennies. We have advice here, on how to actually get hired for a freelance job. Also, a good place to start looking is Fiverr. It’s called Fiverr, because most people would charge just $5 for their services—some people still do that, others charge a lot more. Teach online If you like to teach and have some free time, consider teaching English as a second language. EF, an online teaching company where you could earn up to $2,000 a month, making it a pretty great side-hustle. VIPkid is another excellent service that connects North American teachers and tutors with students in China for one-on-one English lessons. The application process is rigorous, but you could make between $14 and $22 an hour—not necessarily the most competitive, but still decent. Do small tasks If you’re not prone to creativity, you can still make money online by offering your handyman (or woman) services on TaskRabbit. Many of the tasks advertised on TaskRabbit involve tasks such as: Putting furniture together Moving Running errands Picking up groceries Search the gigs section of Craigslist Along with TaskRabbit, you can search the “gigs” section on Craigslist. Many of the gigs are hoaxes, but there are some that are legit. There are gigs that involve computer skills, writing skills, general labor, cleaning, etc.

3. Invest with a robo-advisor Robo-advisors are diversified investment accounts that are automatically managed by a computer algorithm (as opposed to a human money manager). If you want to invest, but don’t have the money, or don’t want to invest with a money manager, robo-advisors are for you! Robo-advisors make investing easier—and cheaper—so they’re perfect for new investors. Here are a couple of our favorite robo-advisors! Betterment Betterment is a simple investing platform. You can easily open sub-accounts that use different portfolios for reaching multiple goals. It’s also surprisingly inexpensive! Betterment’s Digital plan charges 0.25 percent annually. You’ll have access to a full suite of services as well as mobile messaging to an advisor Check out our full Betterment review. Acorns Acorns is an robo-investing app. You can invest as little as $5, making it perfect for young, inexperienced investors. Acorns charges 0.25 percent a year on accounts over $5,000. The fee on accounts under $5,000 is $1 a month. Check out our full Acorns review. Wealthfront Like Betterment, Wealthfront has a lot to offer investors. Perhaps it’s most important quality, Wealthfront doesn’t charge management fees on balances under $10,000. They requires a $500 minimum investment and its fee is 0.25 percent fixed a year on portfolios over $10,000—one of the more quite competitive fees. Check out our full Wealthfront review.

4. Invest in real estate Investing in real estate online is a great form of passive income if you’re open to a little risk. Real estate crowdfunding involves many investors investing small amounts of money into real estate ventures. One company on the rise when it comes to real estate crowdfunding— EquityMultiple. You can invest with them for $5,000. Read our EquityMultiple review.

5. Invest with a broker The stock market scares a lot of folks, but it’s getting easier and easier to invest your money in stocks, even if you don’t have a whole lot of know-how. If you invest through companies like E*TRADE, they offer tons of investing tools so you can invest on your own, and you can trade stocks and ETFs for just $6.95.

6. Become a virtual assistant Virtual assistants can make up to $16 an hour. You can work part time or full time, and your schedule can be relatively flexible, as long as it lines up with whomever you’re working for. What you need to be a virtual assistant: Laptop Head set or cell phone Good communication skills Flexible schedule

7. Sell or rent your belongings This could mean selling a few things here and there on Ebay, running a full-fledged online store, or renting out your home (okay, so that’s not entirely online, but it starts out there). Ebay Ebay may seem old school, what with Amazon and Etsy, but selling stuff you don’t need is a great way to make extra cash. You can make a free account, but you’ll be limited to how much you can sell. If you want to sell more than 50 items a month online, you’ll need to sign-up for one of Ebay’s subscriptions. Starter: $4.95/ mo with annual subscription Basic: $21.95/ mo with annual subscription Premium: $59.95/ mo with annual subscription Anchor: $299.95/ mo with annual subscription Enterprise: $2,999.95/ mo with annual subscription Each comes with different selling caps, and the higher the subscription, the lower the fees. Etsy Etsy’s setup is a lot more satisfying than Ebay and even Amazon. But, just like Ebay and Amazon, Etsy does have some fees to consider if you’re planning on just casually selling. The fee schedule goes as follows: $0.20 USD for each item that you list for sale When you make a sale you’ll be charged a transaction fee of 3.5 percent of the price you display for each listing Craigslist If you want to go real old-school, you can sell your items on Craigslist. While there’s a lot that can go wrong on Craigslist, it’s still one of the most used sites—mostly because it’s free. Sell your text books Textbooks are expensive—too expensive for most. So, if you have old textbooks you’re never going to look at again—or never looked at in the first place—selling them can make you back some of the money you had to spend. If you buy your books from Barnes and Noble, they make it easy to sell them back at the end of the year! Rent your home on Airbnb Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably heard of Airbnb. If you have an extra room, or even a whole house you’re willing to rent out, you could earn a hefty side income. There’s a cost when it comes to listing on Airbnb, You’ll be charged three percent of the booking total. Since you can set prices, however, you’ll still have quite a bit of control over how much you can make as an Airbnb host.

9. Download money-making apps If you already shop online, downloading money-making apps can earn you cash every time you shop. Let’s take a look at some of the best apps. Drop We like Drop because it’s easy-to-use and lets you earn gift cards for the money you’re already spending. All you have to do is sign-up using the Drop app, or online and link a debit or credit card. Then you pick five of your favorite brands from a list Drop provides. Make sure you choose carefully, because you can’t change these once you’ve picked. Now, all you do is shop at those places and your points will start adding up. Here’s our thorough review of Drop!

10. Create a blog If you can create a niche audience for your blog, you can make an entire paycheck—just ask our founder. To start earning money by blogging, you’ll need to use certain advertising tactics, the best for start-up blogs is: Advertising and affiliate marketing Affiliate marketing makes it possible for small blogs to stay in business. Rather than  getting paid per 1,000 page views or per click—which is the traditional middle—affiliate advertising involves an advertiser paying an affiliate publisher (your blog) when it refers a paying customer.

11. Open an online savings/checking account Opening an online savings and checking account can earn you a much higher interest rate than at traditional banks. Our favorite banks are below: Discover Bank Online Savings Account The Discover Online Savings account earns you a 1.90 percent APY—that’s $95 in interest annually for every $5,000 you deposit. There’s also no minimum balance required to keep your account open. Read our review. Aspiration Summit Checking The Aspiration Summit Checking account lets you earn up to two percent. To get the full two percent, you’ll need to have a balance of $10,000+. In addition, the Aspiration Summit Checking account has no minimum balance requirements, no monthly services fees, no minimum monthly deposit, and no ATM fees. Read our review.

12. Unsubscribe from some online services that you don’t use Making money online is easy, but spending money online is even easier. It’s incredibly easy to sign-up for a service, put it on auto-pay, and forget about it. Luckily, there’s a service that will go through all your old subscriptions and ask you which ones you want to cancel. This service is Trim. Trim can even negotiate some of your bills for you! That makes it perfect for millennials who have an aversion to phone calls.

13. Start a podcast Blogs and podcasts are two of the top side-hustles these days. You can make money doing a podcast similarly to how you make money running a blog. Find a niche topic. This makes it easier to narrow down your audience and affiliate market. Once you have a dedicated audience (which could take a while), you can start reaching out to advertisers who’s products would make sense to mention. Here are a few other ways to monetize your podcast.

14. Become YouTube famous If you’re good at talking in front of a camera and have an idea/product you want to discuss, YouTube could be the perfect platform for you. You can earn money on YouTube in a variety of ways: Become a YouTube partner The big money on YouTube is if you meet the requirements to become a partner. This year, YouTube changed the requirements to become a partner. You need to have a channel that has reached 4,000 watch hours in the previous 12 months and 1,000 subscribers. When you’re a partner, you start earning by how many views you receive. Here’s how it works: “YouTube takes around a 45 percent slice of advertising revenue, although the CPM (cost per thousand) that advertisers are charged varies. Most partners earn anywhere between $0.30 to $2.50 CPM.” Connect to Google AdSense Once you become a Youtube partner, you can connect to Google AdSense, their advertising system. You’ll be paid based on the number of “impressions” your videos get. That’s when someone clicks on or watches an ad. Product placement If you can get companies to sponsor your videos, or place their products in their videos, you can generate even more income. But you’ll need to inform YouTube of these product placements, or they may pull your partnership.

15. Create online courses If you have a specific area you’re especially knowledgeable in, creating an online course can make you some decent money. This could be a course in just about anything: Cooking skills, massage therapy, how to play the guitar, etc. You’ll want to start by creating a course outline—show it to a couple people, have them tell you if they think they’ll actually learn whatever it is you’re trying to teach. Next, it’s time to make your course. Most of them are done through video, with worksheets included. When it’s time to sell your course, you can sell to places like Zippy Courses.

16. Write an e-book Writing an e-book and selling it is a lot like making courses online. Again, if you have a topic you want to write about—it could be as simple as the hobbies you like—writing about it should be easy, and if you can find a site willing to buy your book you can rake in a little extra cash. You can go through Amazon Kindle Publishing—they’ll charge you a commission each time you get a sale, but their reach is huge, so you’re more likely to sell more copies.

17. Sell pictures that you’ve taken If you’re hobby is photography, or you’re looking to become a professional photographer, there are a couple ways you can get started and make some money online. First, you can sell your photos to stock photo companies. Some of those companies include: 123rf 500px Alamy Crestock And more Or, if the only camera you have access to is your smartphone, you can sell your pictures you take with your phone. Apps and companies you can sell to include: Clashot EyeEm Foap Scoopshot

18. Shop online Most people shop online these days—and for good reason. It can actually save you money. If you use coupon sites, you can save money on things you’ll already spend on. Some of these sites include: Groupon Slickdeals Hip2Save ShopAtHome And more

19. Subscribe to a food delivery service Using a food delivery service can’t necessarily earn you money, but it can help you save you money if you constantly find yourself throwing out half the food you buy. Food delivery services send a box of food every week with new, sometimes unique vegetables, meat, fruit, and so on. If you don’t have time to shop and want simple meal-prep that leads to a good meal, a food subscription service may be perfect for you. Most of the services offer similar foods, it just depends on the price range you want. Our recommended food services are: HelloFresh, Home Chef, SunBasket, Purple Carrot, and Freshly.

20. File your taxes online While filing your taxes online isn’t a constant source of income, it can help you get your tax return sooner. Here’s three of the best tax softwares that make filing easy! TurboTax TurboTax is likely the tax software you’ve heard the most about, and for good reason! If you file a 1040-EZ, 1040, or 1040A you could file your federal return for free, plus, the guided format explains the tax filing process clearly, so you can be done filing in a matter of minutes. Plus, if you’re self-employed, TurboTax has a Self-Employed product that can save you from having to hire a costly tax expert. It costs $114.99 for the software. H&R Block H&R Block has evolved past its brick and mortar beginnings and offers online products that compete with the best of them. If you’ve used past tax software products, you can upload a PDF of last year’s return from any other tax prep service. H&R Block works like many of the other softwares—H&R Block Online guides you through your tax return to make sure you haven’t missed anything. All along, the Refund Reveal feature shows your estimated refund or balance due in the upper left corner. TaxAct TaxAct is one of the cheapest tax software programs, but it still offers a lot. Like TurboTax, it offers a free filing for forms 1040EZ and 1040A. Their Premium services are also cheaper, starting at just $37 for more complicated tax situations. While TaxAct might not look as fancy as the other tax softwares, it offers many of the same products for a lower cost.

21. Become a graphic designer A graphic designer creates digital art for their clients. And it’s actually a lot easier to make money as a graphic designer than some might think—it just takes a little persistence. First, you’ll need to create a portfolio. After that, you can find direct clients to work with by using sites like Fiverr, where you can sell your talents. You can also post videos of you teaching graphic design—with product placement—and get clients that way. Summary Making money online is becoming easier and easier. As long as you have some technological know-how, you can make a little extra cash on the side. We have just 21 ideas above, but there are an endless amount of things you can do to make money if you get creative.

THE 40 FILTH IS IN A CATCH 22

So if Donald Trump resigns he then faces numerous state and federal charges, and if he wins another term of 4 years, after such second term, he loses because at that point he's exposed to the judicial system, there are two term limits.

And the 40 filth will definitely be in a catch-22! So instead of a civil war, maybe his phony Pastor should be praying for him, besides the Southern Confederates have lost two wars already, why make it three?

Hence, Donald Trump is desperately trying to win the 2020 election, because he knows the consequences after he leaves office, and many like myself cannot wait.
