About matbram

My name is Matthew Mallard. I'm a Passive Income Hacker and lover of all things tech.

I prefer working because I want to, not because I have to.

Working is great, but if you're always working, you'll never have time to enjoy the fruits of your labor.

I'm a web designer, developer, writer, and entrepreneur who loves learning new things as well as networking with people.

Feel free to hit me up any time, happy to help out where I can.

I hangout a lot on IRC and in the channel ##passiveincome on Freenode.

Happy hacking!

    The ad is displayed on the results page when you click 'calculate', not the main page. Although I think he may increase ad earnings if they were on both pages.
