Double To A Million - Step 20 - 4 Year Anniversary

How To Double Your Way To A Million In 28 StepsDTAMP - Double To A Million Plan Blog

Today, August 2nd, 2010, is DTAMP's Four Year Anniversary.

It has been a rough road with ups and downs, sharp corners, pot holes, orange barrels, obstacles, road kill and occasional crashes.

Over the four years, those who have followed this adventure have seen successes and failures, Problems and victories, sickness and health and the torment of the neighbor's demon dog.

But things change in life and DTAMP is subject to the change as well.

I have just learned that the neighbor is leaving and as a result the dog will be departing. It figures as I just reached an agreement with the neighbor about a month ago and the dog has been totally silent since.

From a health perspective, I managed to survive the six painful BCG cancer treatments and will be going for an another surgery in a couple weeks to see if the cancer is gone. I am believing for a healing.

I have not been able to collect much money towards the stake for DTAMP over the months. The last hit with trading took the wind out of my sails and I have thought it best to rest, recover and reduce all stress that I can so my body can heal.

The result has been that nothing much is happening.

I am only about $2.00 away from being able to collect $100.00 from an un-namable advertising source. Can't seem to get there with that.

I have also been going through a frustrating Clickbank issue. I have five sales made with a total of $50.07 sitting in the account but I cannot get it. It should have been more but Clickbank has already confiscated $8.61 of it due to there draconian and unfair policies.

The confiscation is due to what they call dormant accounts:

Accounts with a positive balance but no earnings for an extended period of time are considered dormant. Dormant accounts are subject to a charge of $1 per pay period after 90 days of no earnings, $5 per pay period after 180 days of no earnings, and $50 per pay period after 365 days of no earnings.

So it is difficult for the small time struggling Entrepreneur to not only make the money but if you can't make it fast enough they start taking it away from you. It is of course unethical but that doesn't seem to stop them.

I have been considering not using clickbank but to do that I would need to shut down access to the free "How to Double Your Way to a £Million in 28 Steps" book.

Why are my funds still stuck in Clickbank and why haven't I pulled out the remaining funds that are in there? They have conveniently created another rule that stops a small time person in their tracks as well.

It is called the Customer Distribution Requirement which reads:

ClickBank will withhold payment of any account balance until the following criteria is met:

• Sales made with 5 or more different credit card numbers; and,
• Sales made with two different payment methods (either Visa, MasterCard, or PayPal). Note: PayPal purchases do not count toward the minimum 5 different credit card numbers.

So essentially you need five sales, all with different credit card numbers and they must be with two different card types. (visa, mastercard, paypal, etc) except that paypal doesn't even count towards one of the five sales.

That leads me to my predicament, as you can see from my clickbank report below I have five sales, four of which were with visa or mastercard with different numbers but the fifth sale was with paypal so I do not qualify to get my money.

I still need one more sale with a visa or mastercard in order that clickbank will release my $50.07 . If I cannot get another sale then clickbank will begin to abscond with the money in my account.

I want to thank those of you who have made a purchase after getting the free Doubling booklet and (*** I wanted to put it out there if there is anyone that is willing to make the next purchase of one of the products with a visa or mastercard, in order for me to get the five sales needed to collect my funds, I will send you the amount of the commission I receive for your purchase. We will just need to work out the details of how to get you the funds.

I only need one more sale so this offer only applies to the first person to get that fifth sale (with a visa or mastercard) I need.

I appreciate anyone's help with this. Thanks.

Just go "Here" and request the free Doubling booklet. Eventually, you will be given the opportunity to purchase some interesting products that you might find useful in your pursuit of making money. Simply purchase one of those products and we will make arrangements for you to receive the commission.)

(*** The Above Offer is no longer valid as I have had a sale with Clickbank and fulfilled the requirements.)

Well, it is off to another year, hopefully, of DTAMP. I hope the fifth year is more successful than all the previous years combined.

Double To A Million - Step 20 - 3rd Year Anniversary

e Happy Anniversary DTAMP e

Three years ago today, August 2nd, 2006, I began the DTAMP project. At the present I am $3,015.86 closer to the goal of One Million Dollars. It isn't great but it is not to bad either. What surprises me most about the last three years is that it "Has" been three years. I didn't give up working on the project.

In most cases, I would have given up by now and moved on to other more exciting, maybe more profitable projects. I learned some valuable lessons working at DTAMP that I have applied to my personal life and finances that have actually helped to improve them.

Seeing results in my personal life, brought on by the things I learned, sticking it out through good times and bad with the Double To A Million Plan, has helped in me staying with the Project and not giving up.

Lately, I have fallen into a bit of a slump and things are moving ahead slowly. I haven't been able to trade the stake in the stock market because all it has wanted to do lately is go up. I missed the beginning of the move up in June and as a result have not been comfortable jumping in.

I am waiting for a pull back in the markets and then hope to get the signal to make a move. As a result DTAMP hasn't been growing much. I am more successful in a volatile, sideways market. NLY stopped that behavior and has been going higher almost every day for all of June and July.

I have been gathering aluminum cans though various methods, including getting them from a friend who has been collecting them for me. She owns a great gift gallery called Creative Connections .

Based on my rudimentary projections: $3000 divided by 3 years is about $1000 a year. $1,000,000 divided by $1000 per year equals 1000 years to reach the first million. So one of two things needs to happen here. One, I discover the secret to near immortality to last the remaining 996 years, 9 months and 27 days, or two, I find some way to quicken the pace by bringing in more money faster. At the present I am closer to finding the secret.

Double To A Million - Step 18 - 1st Anniversary

How To Double Your Way To A Million In 28 StepsThe Official Blog for the "My One Million Friends" Website
Today is my One Year Anniversary as a Doubler and the birth of the "Double To A Million Plan" (DTAMP).

I decided to begin this Experiment on August 2nd, 2006 and I feel it has moved along quite well with many things gleaned along the way. In fact, I have changed greatly over the course of this year and I believe that the DTAMP project has contributed greatly to those positive changes.

I go into my Second year with the hope that I can continue to move forward with the project. Although I do not possess the unbridled zeal and passion of my earlier Doubler days, I hope that I have gained the wisdom to slowly continue to build upon the success of this past year.

Of course not everything was successful but failure, as we know, is a large and necessary part of the process.

I continue to follow the basic premises found in "How to Double Your Way to a £Million in 28 Steps"

I will do my best to stick to the rules and try not to stray from them. There have been many times I have been tempted to do so, as doing so would have afforded me the opportunity to enlarge my "Stake" substantially. But if I did then this experiment would come to an end.

I could start another project, that didn't follow the rules precisely, but followed the Doubling concept in general just to see how that goes. I will have to think about that idea further.

In the mean time, I will continue to work on this experiment and see where my second year will bring me.
