Rumors

Before I registered on payperpost.com, I did a google search on the company and the owner. I usually do this to check a site's legitimacy. What did I find? A huge controversy involving Mr. Ted Murphy. What was it all about? A and B-list bloggers were all upset about his new internet marketing company that was....*GASP* going to pay bloggers to post ads on blogs. How dare he? Reading through all the whining and slander, I came across some silly information.

Now whether or not some of this is true...only Mr. Ted Murphy knows. I just thought it was irrelevant. One blog stated Ted Murphy was a rich spoiled brat that had started a company with Daddy's money. What's wrong with that? At least he's not lounging around! Hello!!!! He's working! Another blogger implied he was defiling the integrity of the blogger. What??? Blogger.com is being used to peddle porn sites. Those are evil bloggers that defile blogging! Making a couple of bucks for writing a few words and posting a link is honest work for honest pay.

Want to start a rumor? Well, check this out. I was telling my mom in Puerto Rico how I get paid to blog. I told her that I wrote an offer about a windfall. She asked me why? I told her it was a piad offer. We got to talking and she thought that if this guy was really a millionaire, that his objective for that post was to bless someone by making their post come true. That's a wild thought. My father used to read the Daily News in NY and he loved the column written by the rich guy that granted people's requests. Of course, the column ended up becoming a parade of sob stories, but it was cool anyway. Kind of like the idea of Robin Hood.

Anwyay, if you ask me about Ted Murphy...this is my opinion. See a Need, Fill a Need...you can tell I have kids, huh? Yes, for those of you with kids...this was the mantra of the main character in ROBOTS . In this case, it rings true. He took advantage of a great opportunity and many people are kicking themselves for not thinking of it first. Oh well, cest la vie!
