A couple of weeks ago, I published the article Are You A Freebie Seeker? I Have Bad News For You If You Are!
Today, I am going to do a follow up to that article.
I’m sure you have seen or heard about the riots that have been happening across the UK recently.
As I write this, we are bracing ourselves to see whether the ‘protest’ planned to happen close to our offices today happens or not.
We are hoping the police nip it in the bud before it starts.
I am not going to say much more about the riots themselves, there’s been plenty said so far with a lot of people stoking the flames from a distance and then when fingers are rightly pointed at them, they deny doing anything wrong.
Sadly, there are a lot of stupid people out there who won’t ‘own’ or take responsibility for their actions.
A lot of the people involved aren’t what you would call the brightest and best Britain has to offer.
Apparently someone arrested for smashing up a car was rather unhappy that he was recognised through video footage that caught him in action, he said… and I quote… “it was filmed without his permission”.
I kid you not!
I somehow doubt he asked for permission from the car’s owner before smashing it up!
There are other ‘hard men’ who were arrested for violent disorder that cried like babies in court, one of them called for his mother when he was being charged for his crimes.
What I really wanted to talk about were the looters that have been seen emptying shops of their products.
Social media is full of photos and videos of people with arms, bags, baskets, and even trays of goodies they have taken from shops and stores.
In one video, two girls (pictured below) were heard saying something along the lines of “it’s like Christmas” while holding baskets full of stuff they had clearly looted from a shop.
So here is what I want to say…

The FREE stuff that they have stolen, the FREE stuff that they think they are entitled to, is going to COST them FAR MORE than if they had spent a few hours a week working on a way to make extra money to buy the things they wanted.
I don’t know if these people are scumbags who shoplift regularly, or whether they are opportunists who foolishly got caught up in the moment.
Some of these people probably wouldn’t have considered stealing if it wasn’t for the fact there were scores of others doing it in front of them.
Either or, that is irrelevant now.
Now that their faces are plastered all over social media, it’s highly likely they are going to feel the long arm of the law.
I know that the guy in the St George shirt has already been arrested and processed for his part in the rioting and looting in Hull.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the others have already had the knock on the door and been greeted by the constabulary.
Social media may be responsible for allowing people to share the lies and disinformation that has lead to these riots, but it is now also being used to identify and track down those who participated.
The results of their actions will be:
- A criminal record.
- Potentially be blocked from entering other countries (that’s their holidays to Marbs, Magaluf, and Ayia Napa ruined)
- A spell in prison with some real nasty people looking forward to joining them in the shower.
- Being fired from their job.
- And trouble finding work in the future.
All because they wanted to get a few pairs of Crocs, some bath bombs, a tray of Greggs steak bakes, and not have to pay for them.
What is frustrating is that if you were to say to them that they could make the money required to buy those items by doing a couple of hours work each week on a side business…
They would moan that they don’t have the time… although they managed to find the time to loot a shop.
The truth is people who generally want something without paying for it, are lazy and entitled.
They want everything for nothing.
A lot of those people are finding out this week that this isn’t the case.
Nothing of value is free.
There is a cost and what that cost is to you,,, is down to you.
You can either find a way to make some extra money to pay for the things you want…
Or you can do something dumb and end up paying for it in ways that are really going to affect your life negatively.
I know which I choose.
I cannot say how much a pair of Crocs cost – bloody ugly things – or how much you’d have to pay for a full tray of steak bakes from Greggs, but I do know that there are multiple ways to make money online.
And they are often very easy and simple to do.
One perfect example of this is to build simple websites and add them to a marketplace where people buy and sell websites.
If you make a website that is a business and not just a website – ie, it makes money from advertising revenue or has a product ready for people to sell as soon as they buy it from you, you will be able to sell it for a lot more money.
A complete business-in-a-box website can be made within a day if you pre-planned what it needed and knuckled down.
Give yourself a month to work on it and it could be worth a lot more money.
That one website could sell for several hundred pounds, and possibly several thousand pounds.
It depends on who buys it, what your website is about (the product attached to it), and how much money it is making, or could potentially make.
With resale licenses for products with sales pages costing one or two thousand pounds each…
Do you not think that a website that comes with a unique digital product, a landing page to build an email list, and a sales page to sell the product from is going to be worth a decent chunk of money?
It most certainly will… more than enough to buy several pairs of Crocs and a tray of steak bakes from Greggs.
