In one of my recent posts here on Shoemoney, I discussed blogging in detail. Specifically, how bloggers get paid. It sounds like a dream come true, doesn’t it?

If you’re feeling restless, demotivated, and sleepless, you might want to look at your screen habits. Patient.info recently did a survey of over 2,000 people. They found that people who binge-watch tv are three times more likely to feel depressed, anxious, sleepless and empty. This was especially true of the 18-24-year-old crowd.

A little while ago a friend told me about an arbitraging platform that was, “too good to be true. Just put money in and watch it grow”.
