We Fall

Failures

• Loss of Home to Short Sale or Foreclosure
• Loss of Egg Farm Business
• Loss of Retirement Funds

Nancy Merrill, the mayor of Eagle, Idaho from 2002 to 2006, and her husband, have lost their 4,646-square-foot home valued in 2007 at $1.2 million after failing to pay the $3,563.16 monthly amortization since October 2008.  If their mortgage bank won’t approve their plan to sell their home through a short sale, the bank will sell the house in a foreclosure auction on May 29.

They Merrills mortgaged their home in 2000 to buy out their partners in a farm that supplies eggs to Albertsons supermarkets.  They also used their retirement funds in the buyout.  Due to increased operational costs and diminished profits, the business closed in 2007.

The Merrills have four children.

Perhaps you’re already writing for shared-revenue content sites, such as hubpages or squidoo, where you need to write more than a hundred search-engine-optimized articles before you’ll start to see a few dollars in your Adsense account. These are good sites to write for… and you can always continue writing there.

But there’s another site where you can earn money faster, and at the same time get much satisfaction from your writing, as you write only about things you enjoy writing about. You don’t need to research or compete for the most-searched keywords. You let your words flow, without getting blocked by SEO.

As of today, July 30, just over a month since Fortitude was launched, I’ve written two articles, one of which is “Leaving One’s Husband,” referred some writers, and reviewed a number of articles, and I now have earned $110. 44, an amount I haven’t gained from any of my Internet writing  endeavors since 2008.

UPDATE:

Sad to say, as of April 2011, this website failed to attract the number of writers it needed to survive, so it shut down.
