New to Blogging (How did I get here?)

I'm not much of a writer although I love to read. I'm not a fan of marketing research but I do find people's marketing tactics to be quite interesting. I'm not really sure how to start this but here I am typing away.

A good friend and business partner suggested I venture to blogging. If I want to build my own empire, he says, I should start building my "legacy" now. Ok, so empire and legacy might be over exaggerated terms when my goal, really, is just to have a "cash cow" that will help me retire as early as possible.

Anyway, Morbie, my hopefully "cash cow", is an online e-loading site that sends load to the Philippines. You might be wondering why a Canadian guy like me would choose this type of business venture. Well, I'm a bit of a romantic, I guess. I have a soft heart when it comes to long distance relationships and forbidden loves. When I got to know an "OFW" and learned of their hardships being away from their families, my soft heart (and business instinct) went out to her. Long story short, Morbie was born.

My baby was doing fine (on its way to the top) until the whole google phenomenon happened. Now, I'm back to building it up again, with the help of blogging and profiling among others.
