Seventeen Sites Your Boss Doesn’t Want You To See

There’s one thing worse than being unemployed during an economic downturn–being employed. If your boss believes you owe him a living during good times, his or her sense of self-importance swells during a tight job market–and so do the number of the crappy duties, the fear mongering, and intrusiveness.

They’re more than happy to show you the door.

That may have been true a few decades ago, but with each year and each increasing spin of the technological wheel, you’re ability to be master of your own income domain increases.

Here are seventeen sites that can inspire you to manage your finances, work for yourself, find new streams of income, and generate wealth automatically. While “Not Safe For Work” means an entirely different set of internet destinations, these seventeen sites are probably ones your boss doesn’t want you to check out on work time–or any time.
