Aidpage

how many people are on AidPage.com? I'm screwed as usual.. the only thing I can ever do is ask people to view my youtube because I might make a dollar if a few hundred people click a videos. . My camera got stolen so I can't make new ones... but check this one out. It's good. It's free! enjoy.

I didn't change my thumbnail and I didn't think of any viral video ideas for you, but I am very happy to report full monetization options on all my videos now! Youtube has ushered me into a new era. haha. here is my latest greatest video. http://youtu.be/VaXh3qSLE_w

Woo hoo! Hey miss Bee's Knees Shizam. I got (not quite partner) but full monetization on all my videos now! It's a limited trial of video monetization for youtube accounts. It's doesn't say I'm a "partner" per-say, but I have the option to claim full copyright ownership and monetize at upload now. It's very cool! Here is my latest video. http://youtu.be/VaXh3qSLE_w

I just uploaded a new video! It's a great help to me if you give me thumbs up or re-post on your Facebook, or Google +1 it if you have it like that. THANKS!

 in response to Bee's Knees...   You are welcome. I have the last two covered.. I'd try fiverr but it already seems like it has a ton of people and I don't know how well I'd stand out.

Anyhow, all I can do is pimp my Youtube and blogger pages as much as possible. You already know my YT is http://www.youtube.com/user/rayofminneapolis?feature=mhee If anyone else here has an account, please subscribe?

And here are some adsense supported blogger pages for people to check out too :)

What is your Blogger page, Bees Knees?

I just recovered my password here! So I'm back and looking around.. There seems to be a better social aspect to this sites network since the last time I saw it. I'm kinda figuring out how to get in everyones visitors lists.. I'm thinking I can drive traffic to a youtube video or maybe my blogger, cause they have adsense on them. So it's kinda fun. I don't need to beg for help if I can drive enough traffic for spare change.

I hope the embed code works...

I have an idea! First I'll subscribe to you. I thought I should show people how to make popcorn with oil rather then a microwave.. but that's just a thought.. really I think quickly MARKETING your video after uploading helps tremendously. Embedding videos HERE is the right idea..I'll tell you a story about what happened to me recently. I made a video called Mini-Minneapolis. http://youtu.be/esDyRGnXwnM

In order to get some extra views, I entered it in a video contest, knowing i'd get a few from people judging the entries... Well, it worked! And it worked WELL!

I got enough views QUICK enough for the video to become monitized. I think thats part of the key. You need to get a few thousand views within the first few days... So I was happy with that, but here's the kicker. I WON THE GRAND PRIZE IN THE VIDEO CONTEST!! hahaha.. I would have never expected it! I was just trying to get some extra views! But it was the INTEL Visual Life Contest and I'm the Grand Prize Winner. Crazy huh? I won a new Laptop, a 1TB hard drive, a still cam and an HD Video Cam!  Guess it was my lucky day.. 

So, maybe that's inspirational. Good luck making your videos!

I've actually been successful at getting 2 videos "monetized" on YouTube. I'll embed one of them. It's awesome we can embed videos in comments here!

Between that and ad-sense on some blogger blogs, I make 2 bucks a day sometimes. Pays for a small coffee and I can sit in a coffee shop producing more content!

If you care to visit the blogger site it's http://globalnewsviews.blogspot.com/

Good luck! Have fun!

EDIT: Hey the embed didn't work! Well, heres the link http://youtu.be/esDyRGnXwnM

I contacted you, but haven't heard back.....

wow. I will try to contact you. This is a good profile.

Good lucjk man. I was your age when I became homeless. All I can tell you is don't go to war. i'm 28 now, still in poverty but I have a camper RV to sleep in. I don't think thats good advice, but if you can get a job and an rv you'll be cool. Hope your woods are warm enough man. Good Luck to us all.

I'm from Minneapolis. You have to go to Century Plaza Downtown and apply for section 8 subsidized rent vouchers . But the waiting list is 2 years at least. I don't know> I'm homeless and single myself so I don't qualify for any of the family programs. But you could probably start at Caring and Sharing hands. Here is a list of links for you to check out. Minneapolis Public Housing Authority http://www.ci.minne apolis.mn.us/citywork/other/mp ha.html People Serving People (downtown, families only) http://minneapolis.abou t.com/od/volunteering/ig/Peopl e-Serving-People.--0Q/index.ht m Caring and sharing hands http://www.sharingandca ringhands.org/ I think your best path to take is get into an apartment at People Serving People while you apply for Section 8 from the Minneapolis public Housing Authority. With any luck you'll be in your own place sooner then later, considering the kids. Good luck. *Ray

I've tryed art selling with a bit of success. I live and work from my RV. I've been homeless for a decade now.
It's to bad being famous doesn't necessarily mean you'll be rich. I've been writing my experiences in Minnesota for 6 years now... maybe a bit more.. sometimes begging for help, but I never get out of the poverty pit.
I'm always afraid of getting pulled over and my "home" impounded beyond my ability to get it back.
I don't have tabs/registration ($40) the reason I would be pulled over.
It's pretty frustrating when you can't pay for simple things to get your life in order. Even more so when you can't buy food!

I'd drive off with nowhere to park and get caught trying to sleep in a parking lot somewhere with no tabs and this sh*t is just a nightmare. I don't even have gas money. I just want to get my head above water so I can focus on entrepreneurial ideas and get back to doing art projects I was involved in.

I can offer art for money. I have a signature piece that is funny, I'll try to ebay in the near future.

For now, I've figured out how to accept paypal donations! Click the orange button above.

THANKS FOR READING!
Peace on the planet.
