Thanks man! This check came from when I was messing around with PPI for a few hours. I didn't know exactly what PPI was, but I was eager to learn. I just skimmed through a few threads, and thought I knew everything I needed to BANK! After all of my research, I went through amonetize. I basically mimicked the method everyone else was doing.
I created the youtube video. I set it to unlisted until I had reached the amount needed to rank. I added my PPI link, with a bunch of spun content related to my targeted keyword. After all of that hard work, I was ready to go.
I believe at some point in time while I was messing with it, I downloaded and installed it to my computer. After I had installed it to my computer, my screen turned blue with an error code 0x0000185 and something about a required device missing.
The PC I was using for PPI was under warranty. So I called the manufacturer, and they told me the recovery cd would fix it. I told them perfect, send me one, because my computer didn't come with one. They said that it would only cost me $59 for the recovery cd. So I buy the cd, and a few days later I receive it in the mail.
After I had installed the recovery cd, my computer still didn't work. So I called the manufacture back, and they told me I have a bad hard drive, and I need to mail it to them. I spent another $30 dollars mailing it, but the cost to fix it and mail it back was free.
So yeah, it was a lot of hard work, but a well earned $35!
