Build up Passive Income while Working at Home

It’s been 6 months now that I started my restaurant business. As the day pass by, I felt that I became more and more familiar of the things that I do everyday. It’s like a daily prototype of thing that I can perform almost perfect that it already became mind-numbing.
I looked for a part time home based job to avoid boredom and to continuously hone my skills but I realized it isn’t that easy to find good ones. This is because other virtual employers don’t give real payment while other employers take advantage of their virtual staffs. I had my share with these illicit and immodest employers online.
Thanks to these experiences I learned a lot. Now I am enjoying passive income without spending too much time and money. I do it at my own pace and most importantly I don’t deal with bosses. My job now aside from being a restaurateur is a content writer, blogger and a regular player of PTC’s.
I earned dollars by writing English articles since I can write on different subjects. The other job that gives me another stream of income is by joining free PTC’s also known as Paid To Click job. This job is pretty simple. All you need to do is to click all the available ads and wait up to 30 sec for each ad to load and you’re done. You earn dollar that simple. You’ll do it at your time and your income will depend on your referral and your clicks.
There are other home based opportunities that you can try. The top 6 home based jobs are answering Surveys Online, Article Writing, Virtual Assistant job, Data Entry jobs and Web Designing. Just be careful and always do background check before you join or before you start working for someone online.

Deca Wakeboard: Wakes up your daring side!



My sister got home from Manila and it’s been a while that we went out together so we planned for a great activity before she’ll leave us again. We searched in the net to check some activities that we can possibly do that is located not too far away from Davao. Luckily, we saw the ads of Deca WakeBoard Park which is located at Barangay Mintal Davao City, around 45 min. travel from the City’s downtown area.

We found the perfect get away! So we decided to visit the place and see if we can do it since we imagined it to be very arduous. We enjoyed the travel going there. It is not difficult to find the place since it is known to the residents of Mintal. I’ll tell you how to get there.

You can ride a jeepney from Roxas St. since Jeepneys that travels to Barangay Mintal pass through that area. Just enjoy the ride and alight at Mintal gym. When you reached that place, you can ride a tricycle or a cab. Deca Wakeboard Park is around 5-10 min ride from Mintal Gym and it is close to Deca Homes Resort Residences.

As we approached the main entrance, we already saw some guys doing the knee and wake board. Suddenly, the itch to do it myself arises. So we asked the in-charge if we can start as soon as we are ready but we are told that it is not open for players yet. We need to wait for an hour since the Wednesday schedule starts at 10:30 AM – 12:00 PM then resumes at 1:30 PM – 5:30 PM. Additionally, schedules for Mon, Tue, Thu, Sat and Sun starts at 8:30 AM – 12:30 PM and resumes at 1:30 PM – 5:30 PM. The rates by the way, depends on residency. Regular Rates are 1000 PHP for Whole Day Play and 700 PHP for Half Day Play. For Davao Residents Only the rate is 700 PHP for Whole Day Play and 500 PHP for Half Day Play. Another rate for Deca Homes Resort Residents applies. Each rate includes the wakeboard, the vest and the helmet.

Before we start, we were told to gather for a short coaching since most of us are newbies. The game is thrilling and at the same time risky. The thing is the in charge asked us to sign a waiver that we will play at our    own risk. But despite the danger, nobody draw back. Who would? The fee is expensive. Hahaha!

Anyway, we learned that we can’t actually do the wakeboard on our first try. We need to take a crack and master the knee board first to become more familiar of the game. The first ride is not easy. I splashed when I almost reached the starting point it is because it’s very hard to navigate and pass between orange buoy. If you missed that, be prepared to be towed powerfully. What ever happens after that, just let go and release your wake board to avoid accidents. Give it a try, it’s worth it! Don't forget to bring your camera to capture perfect moments.
