I’m back with another post again. But hey, we are today going to have our elections. And as we all know, we’re all allow to vote once. No rigging! No cheating and above no vote buying! These all something we all have to adhere to during the voting process and please, as the electoral commissioner imposed on you.-( I was elected in an undemocratic manner and I certainly do hope that you guys are going to bear with me)

Ha..Ha… Again, the biometric machines and ID cards for have not yet arrived but this forthcoming elections will still be coming on as planned. The electoral committee-(made up of only me) have finished vetting the presidential candidates. We received a lot of nominations from millions of bloggers who wished to contest including myself but as you might verily well know, we’re still seeking for funds to print the ballot papers. Having a lot of names on the ballot paper is certainly going to cost as more so we have to manage.

Now as everything is now set. I mean everything which makes an election viable. We now have our ballot boxes ready and our electoral officers are ready at the various polling stations with all eligible voters compiled in one register.

But we do proceed, we ought to have a look at our various aspirants and listen to what they have to tell us. And the first person on the ballot is John Chow.

Now John Chow, tell us why we should vote you as the president of the Blogging World. He is the founder of John Chow Dot com.

I am a blogger, speaker and entrepreneur. I rocketed onto the blogging scene when I showed the income power of blogging by taking my blog from making zero to over $40,000 per month in just two years. And I did it working only 2 hours a day.

Today, John Chow dot Com is one of the biggest blogs on the Internet, with over 200,000 active daily readers and followers. John Chow dot Com is ranked number 16 on the AdAge Power 150 list and number 1 in the list of the Top 50 Canadian Internet Marketing Blogs.

I have written many books and runs one of the biggest money making blogs in the world. I have been featured in such publications as The Vancouver Sun, the Globe and Mail, the New York Times, Entrepreneur Magazine, Ming Pao Magazine and BC Business Magazine. I have also appeared on numerous radio and television shows, like The Lab with Leo Laporte and Global Morning News.

                    Other Interesting Facts About Me

• John worked at a job for a grand total of 8 months in his entire life. After that, he concluded that “Working Sucks!” and he never did it again.
• John was born in a small farming village in Mainland China. His family immigrated to Canada when he was 7 years old.
• John lives the Dot Com Lifestyle by spending summers in Vancouver, Canada and winters in Orange County, California. This assures him an average year round temperature of 72F.

From what we know so far from our first candidate in the name of John Chow, I guess it will be prudent for us to move on to second candidate on the ballot paper and he is of the name, Pat Flynn.

He is the brain behind Smart Passive Income.

I’m Pat. I’m a 30 year old dude from Southern California who makes a living on the internet. I consider myself the luckiest person on Earth.

I didn’t win the lottery, I don’t drive a fancy car, and I’m not a millionaire. What I do have is a beautiful wife, two amazing children, a loving family, awesome friends, and a line of work that allows me to spend most of my time with them.

My Story

I used to have a 9 to 5 job, which I really did enjoy. I was working as a Job Captain in an architecture firm and loving the line of work I was in. I had no plans to leave, but unfortunately there are some things you cannot control (like the economy) and so, I was laid off.

Getting laid off is a weird feeling. One day you think everything is fine and for whatever reason the next day you don’t really know what you’re supposed to do anymore. Instead of feeling bad about it, I immediately decided to work for myself from home.

It turns out that getting laid off was the best thing that ever happened to me. Without my 9 to 5 job holding me back, I’ve since been able to earn more money and work less (and more flexible) hours – which in the end allows me to be home and spend time with my family.

So Why the Smart Passive Income Blog?

With this blog, I want to be as transparent as possible with everything I do online. My businesses, my strategies and my income – it’s all out there for you to see. I’m not trying to show off my success – that’s definitely not my purpose. ‘ If you’re already doing business online, I hope that my experiences – both my wins and my failures – can help you reach your goals.’

And finally, please read this carefully:

I don’t consider myself an online marketing guru, my techniques are not secrets and the kinds of things I teach are not “get rich quick” schemes  - far from it actually.

Earning any type of income online takes a lot of hard work, a lot of patience and a little bit of luck too. I know I have an inspiring story and I am here to inspire you too, however I want to do it the right way. I speak only from my experience and please don’t feel like you owe me anything because of it. This is my way of paying forward the amazing things that have happened to me.

Standing on this platform as an a presidential candidate, I certainly do hope I’m going to win this election.
