this guest post was removed after it was found pretty much word for word in a book =(. I dunno why guest posters think they can do that and nobody will notice =(

These are the most entertaining comments I’ve read on here. Andrew you are one crazy mofo.

Last post, I promise.
My post simply recommended a book and explained why it contains extremely important concepts for internet marketers. I included a non-affiliate link, and a link to a non monetized page (much like affiliatedefined.com did at first).
Lets look at http://www.shoemoney.com/2007/08/09/link-cloaking-the-why-the-where-the-how/
A complete spam post, with the purpose of selling a product. That post is still up. But my post isn’t.

For such a snappy young lad you sure do butcher the english language. Verbatim – Using exactly the same words.
There is not a single sentence in that post that is “verbatim” from the book, jackass.

That’s not really related to the post at all, but it does remind me of another wise saying. “The strong move in silent, the weak cause a riot.”
Which is another good point about not giving away your money trees.

Well its safe to say they wont be guest blogging ever again…
August 20, 2007 at 10:25 am
What a joke….. they have an awesome opportunity yet they copy and paste…
August 20, 2007 at 10:25 am
that should be a Qoute of the day!
August 20, 2007 at 10:24 am
Thanks. My point was not to get a link to my site, or to pretend I am some genius. The point was I read a good book, that I thought would be useful to the community around shoemoney, and it really is.

Get that fat dick out of your ass. I sent the post to shoe, he posted it. Thats his fault not mine. He asked for posts and i sent one. To be honest, I didn’t expect it to get posted. But when I got the reply e-mail “Excellent post dude, i’ll put it on monday’s queue.” I figured they actually read it and saw some validity in it.
Now I just get a bunch of shit about “stealing” someones work when I made it clear as fuck where it was coming from.
This is like a book publisher blaming an author for writing something crappy. Don’t publish it if it sucks.

It doesn’t say don’t spend, it says don’t spend until you can afford it without negatively affecting your financial future.
August 20, 2007 at 10:21 am
It is a great book. Really raises your awareness of what you need to do to be financially set in the future.
August 20, 2007 at 10:20 am
Thanks. I figured this was a good post to raise peoples awareness that $10,000 a month means nothing when it stops coming in.

I was the original poster. This wasn’t word for word from a book at all. I just read the book this past week, and figured applying its concepts to internet marketing which is a much more volatile industry than many the book discusses, would be useful.
The only phrases taken from the book were PAW (progressive accumulator of wealth) and UAW (under accumulator of wealth).
I posted a non affiliate link to the book on amazon and made it clear where the ideas were from.
So how did I rip someones work off?
August 20, 2007 at 10:08 am
Is that book any good?
August 20, 2007 at 9:42 am
hahaha kunk ventures got pwned, way to rip off someone else’s work buddy…
August 20, 2007 at 9:42 am
Great advice shoe. A little cold water in the face is good sometimes. Years ago I read a book that really hit home for me. No this is not a affiliate link or plug.

There’s an old chinese saying my uncle told me, “make a lot of money in silence if you want to keep making it”
August 20, 2007 at 9:38 am
This post is so trie as I have “lived the dream” when I was riding high on money made frp, affiliate stuff with free google traffic (some blackhat, some not) but looking back “NOW” if I would have invested in learning even about ppc back then when times were good I bet I would still be “living the dream”……….
August 20, 2007 at 9:37 am
Thanks Kunk, this is an advice that will help me think twice before spending.
August 20, 2007 at 9:32 am
Not only did you rip off Millionaire Next Door verbatim, but you butchered it completely.
PAW = Prodigious Accumulator of Wealth
UAW = Under Accumulator of Wealth
Nice link to your ‘Coming soon’ site too, jackass.
August 20, 2007 at 9:02 am
Makes a lot of sense, but I guess when you get wealthy it is hard not to splurge
August 20, 2007 at 8:54 am
Works for some people, not for others. For some, getting those high consumption goods is the goal.
August 20, 2007 at 8:50 am
Great post. That’s why I always try to balance my risk between different ventures. I’ll also check out the book you’ve recommended right now.
But your blog link says “Coming Soon”. Could you post your blog link.
Thanks

sounds like Rich Dad, Poor Dad….less the “diversification” part.
