Three Things I Intend To Do With My PWG Earnings

Coming up with a great new business model isn't very difficult especially when you know the direction everyone else is headed. Too often we find new business models are nothing more than the cookie cutter corporate model with some sprinkles on top to make it appear new and exciting. From the outside they seem to be the next big thing. But from within, you get exactly what you expected. One could say that PWG are among those like-minded individuals fed up with being fed the same old stale cookies. Our great ideas are based on what we would like to have in existing models.

Social Media
"I wish Zuck would let me decide for myself who I wish to be friends with."
The world is long overdue for a viable Facebook alternative with an intuitive self regulated review system for finding and making new friends. God forbid the users utilize Facebook to earn a few dollars without Zuck getting his cut. Barring obvious malware links, users should be able to make their earning avenues available in their posts and profiles.

Online Content
"I wish I could speak freely and write my world."
Let's face the facts, writers have it damn hard in this world. If they work for a news agency or publication they are little more than mouth pieces for corporate fat-cats unable string together a compelling sentence on their own. Their voices are highly regulated. And if they wish to keep earning that $0.0001 cents per view they will write what 'big-boy corp' tells them to write! We need an across the board sea-change in journalism in general. This work is NOT easy and writers deserve every $0.0001 we earn. For the integrity of the news and information being put out into the world, no one should be allowed to earn from another writer's work. Corporate ownership of a writer's thoughts is criminal. As a PWG writer, I will write whatever I damn well please and speak my mind openly as long as I cite my sources and backup my facts. If that offends your advertisers, they can sell their baby wipes somewhere else for a penny per 10,000 page views.

Multimedia
“Writing is like prostitution. First you do it for love, and then for a few close friends, and then for money.” - Moliere. Some call me a whore and perhaps there is some truth to the accusation. But at Youtube, you can't find anything without wading through the raw sewage of spam, scams and poorly produced power-point presentations with garbage techno playing in the background. After an hour of searching Youtube for something remotely relevant I typically give up and go take a shower to wash the filth off my skin. Like writing, information presented in video format should be held to the same standards as everyone else that must ensure the integrity of their work.

So there you have it. Three things I intend to do with my earnings as a preferred writer at PWG. Feel free to take these ideas and make your own millions/billions. It may be a while before I get around to it anyway.
