It’s all getting a bit heated for what’s essentially some pretty useful info if you’re setting about looking for work, especially all the links to various websites. You’ve saved me loads of time. Thanks Michaela!

My words were “i will endeavor to post one myself that will do the job properly”
No promise there, but i will write one, Although, unlike Michaela, i will wait until i have written something worth posting.

Hi Hobbitual!

Perhaps we can now hear your suggestions on how to earn money on the road since you promised to “post one myself that will do the job properly.”

Yes Ian, but you referred quite clearly to myself and others as “Haters”. I fail to see why Scott’s post is an opinion and mine is an act of hatred.

My reply was to Scott, who said that in his opinion, many of the comments are “venomous.” He’s welcome to his opinion, just as you’re welcome to yours.

Hold on Ian MacKenzie. I fail to see where anyone has been “Venomous”, i myself provided a fair critique of what was actually a really rubbish blog. If i am guilty of anything it is levity and not venom.
I find it offensive that we were all treated as naive fools by the blogger, by being expected to take the blog seriously when it seemed to be just a “padding out” exercise. Believe me, i could have been venomous had i wanted to.

Hi Scott – venomous comments are definitely not the norm. I think these haters need to relax and crack a smile once and a while.

Wow, I can’t believe all the hate here. Is the site usually this negative?

Some of these suggestions are unrealistic but that’s no reason to be so venomous.

This article really was just painful to read. Having spent a couple years on the road the catchy title was enticing, but sadly turned out to be another forced, unsubstantial write up that’s hooked onto the numbered list bandwagon.

Its quite audacious to present an article with this title and then pad out the nonsense in this list, makes you wonder if the author has any travel experience at all.

Oh, for the good old days, when I used to do the road without worrying such things. In those days, any kid could pick up work in a bowling alley by setting pins for the night. (They had no such things as automatic machinery). Or putting a coin into a newspaper machine, taking the lot of them and hawking them up and down the aisle of eateries. Yeah, we just had to use our heads a bit.

Here’s an idea I never did use, but I’m sure it would have gotten me a breakfast, here and there: a sauce recipe for high-class poached eggs (half syrup, half ketchup, with a dash of Worcestershire sauce) traded for the breakfast!
