I guess my email notifications weren't working. I'm glad you like my story - its funny for me to read it again, even though I wrote the comment 6 months ago. Yeah, it was amazing that the CDs were so much. It was in Denmark which is one of the most expensive countries in the Universe. And the dollar was crashed so that made it worse ... but yeah ... $250 for a few stupid Danish CDs! That's why I never learned Danish :) I hope you are doing well, you don't seem to have posted in your blog for a while but I am sure you are active in other places! <abbr><em>Annas last blog post on [site]...<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ResidualStreamsOfIncome/~3/aVi0_t5flGg/" rel="nofollow">Finding the Best Wordpress Theme for Your Blog</a></abbr></em> Hi Jenni, its a little late but I just came back to your blog and saw your answer to my comment!

Its nothing in comparison, really, but there was a time, offline, when I was really struggling. I had barely any money - not even for simple things, because I was dedicating all of my time to volunteer work etc. One day I went to the library to borrow some language CDs. I put them in a big pocket of my coat. The pocket had a hole, and later I realized I had lost them. I couldn't find them anywhere. It turned out that the fee for losing a few CDs was about $250. That doesn't sound like a lot, but for me at that time, it was a LOT. I went through all kinds of pain and agony of regret and then I made a decision. I decided I would get innovative and earn that money back plus more. I started selling my old stuff. I started buying and selling dictionaries - I was able to make a lot that way, because of where I was ... (but that's another story). I just kept going and going. I earned back the money for the library and then more. I kept earning more money. I sold dictionaries for a year. I never had problems buying the little things in life again, even though I was still doing volunteer work. That went on for a year or two and then I started working online and earning money that way too. All because I had to pay $250 to the library! <abbr><em>Annas last blog post on [site]...<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ResidualStreamsOfIncome/~3/O__eBdtb6Gk/" rel="nofollow">Free SEO Advice from Google</a></abbr></em> You reminded me of my dictionary story – I never thought I would tell this online but you really reminded me.
