Insurance is important

I am glad that Eugene and I made the decision to purchase insurance for Caitlin right after she was born. When she was three years old, she caught pneumonia and had to be hospitalised for a week. Thankfully, with her insurance, her medical bills for the hospitalisation, and pre- and post-illness visits to the doctor were covered.

And if you have taken a home loan, it is advisable to also get a Mortgage Reducing Term Assurance (MRTA). MRTA helps to settle your housing loan in the event something happens to you. It can cover the unpaid portion of your loan and your family can rest assured they will not lose the house.

A few months ago, Eugene's car was hit from the back by a van. Again thankfully for insurance, a large part of the repair cost was covered.

Many insurance companies are pretty innovative nowadays offering various types of insurance from the regular life to
home, car, education, savings, investment types of insurance. And with the convenience of the Internet, such companies also offer value-added services. Some independent companies such as this one, helps you to even compare car insurance.

Getting insured has never been easier. Other than meeting face to face with an agent, we now have the information and ability to purchase online simply with the click of the mouse.

Convenient Hotel Reservations

Making travel plans can be quite a hassle sometimes, especially when so many choices of travel agents, destinations, types of accommodation, mode of travel etc are open to you. If you are the type who prefers to make your own plans and not leave your fate to the hands of a packaged tour, do check out Hotel Reservations. This comprehensive site offers you good options based on your destination, type of accommodation such as bed and breakfast, hotels, motels, vacation rental condos etc.

I checked out one of my dream destinations, Bahamas, and found a beach villa with air-conditioned room, and full kitchen for USD150 a night. Sounds like good value as it comes with a living room, fully furnished bedroom and kitchen, offers seclusion yet within five minutes from restaurants, shops and bars.

Blog and make money

I started blogging in March as I thought it would be a good way to share some of my thoughts and stuff about our life with family and friends. Since I enjoyed ‘talking’ on paper as well as ‘virtually’, I started considering if this could be a way to earn some money from home. I started exploring making money via blogging and have been surfing other blogs. That’s how I came across PayPerPost.

PayPerPost is a site for bloggers and advertisers, providing bloggers with opportunities to blog about products, services, websites they are interested in, and getting paid for it by the advertisers. I was eager to see what I could do with PayPerPost so I signed up immediately and submitted my blog…without checking what the requirements were.

It was only after receiving an email rejecting my blog that I learnt my blog had to be over 90 days old and have at least 20 entries, among other requirements. I’ve crossed that hurdle now that my blog is over four months old!

The PPP community is filled with people from all over the world, all walks of life and they all have their own interesting stories to share via their blogs. It’s amazing how some of these bloggers are doing so well in their earnings from PPP. I’ve yet to explore PPP and its community fully and hope to do it soon. Despite having been an ‘at home’ mum for two years, I’ve yet to master the art of juggling ‘home stuff’ and ‘work stuff’ well enough to make tons of money from home!

I plan to take this slowly and whenever I get some money out of this, I plan to keep it in a little kitty for personal pampering. So, if you’re like me and looking for some pocket-money or even better, some big bucks to supplement your main income, try checking out PayPerPost.
