Poker for a Good Cause

The charity I chose to support is the East St. Louis Dream Center. Modeled after the LA Dream Center, the ESL DC supports people in the John DeShields housing project in East St. Louis IL. If you’re not familiar with ESL, it’s best known for it’s strip clubs and it’s crime. John DeShields is one of the rougher projects in the city but it’s near and dear to my heart.

I spent just about every Saturday afternoon for over 6 years in ESL visiting families, playing with kids, picking up trash, and delivering furniture. There are several families that I would consider as a part of my own family and watching the violence and poverty that surrounds them truly breaks my heart.

My Current Projects

Obviously it’s been a while since I’ve written that this site is undergoing a transition. To tell you the truth, I’m still not quite sure what I want to do with the site.

But, that works out since I’m really pretty busy with a couple of my other projects.

Currently you can find me writing on FlippingEasy.com, a blog about buying, selling, and flipping websites. The blog just launched Nov 1st but is already doing well and I’m having a blast learning as I go.

After selling BloggingExperiment.com for 5 figures I realized that there was quite a bit of money to be made in launching and selling websites. A lot of people either don’t know how to get a site over that first initial hump or don’t care to take the time. I on the other hand love launching blogs and getting them established. It’s keeping up with them day after day the becomes an issue for me. So, I figure creating and selling blogs might just be the perfect match for me.
