On August 1, SFI President Gery Carson had announced the “merger” of SFI with GreatLife Worldwide. This in essence meant managing affiliates had ended at SFI, and affiliates were advised to go join GreatLife, paying for the first month of membership with Rewardicals. However, life still goes on, for those not keen on joining GreatLife. The SFI website still comes up, though without all the bells and whistles it used to have. The Games Division, Eager Zebra on TripleClicks, is still very much active, allowing members to generate Rewardicals. Once the Rewardicals hit 52,500 you can then turn them into $35 worth of Bitcoin. The following are my selected activities since August.
On August 1, 2025, SFI President Gery Carson announced a merger with GreatLife as the final end of SFI affiliate management activities. This came as a big surprise. Affiliates were advised to join GreatLife, paying for the first month’s membership costing $49 with 19,000 Rewardicals. Although claiming to be too old at 64 years to continue managing SFI affiliates, Mr Carson did say that Eager Zebra Games (TripleClicks.com) and Rewardical.com would still be managed by him. Three new ZCredit packs were introduced in place of the former FDM memberships. So what exactly did he mean by “merger?”
June 8, 2025 was an interesting day playing Card King. I got to spin the lucky wheel a few times, winning 200 Rewardicals, 15 Rewardicals and 100 ZCredits. Not counting the 100 Card King points, for the 17 months starting from February 2024, I have won a total of 48 bonus prizes. 15 Rewardicals was won the most number of 19 times, followed by 30 Rewardicals 7 times. 20 ZCredits, 50 Rewardicals and 6 ZCredits tied at third position with 4 winnings each.
The most significant change in SFI of 2025 is, no more dollar commission payouts. That ended in November of 2024. Now, it is all about Rewardicals, in terms of what affiliates can get. The next is a new “flagship” product, Fun.Money, that offers “4-in-1” access to Eager Zebra Games, ECommergy, Elevation Mall and SFI itself. Rewardicals are basically benefit points obtained a number of ways, including FDM memberships, Eager Zebra Games, Badge Quest, Daily Grand and Daily Crown drawings, and more. You can then redeem or exchange them for Bitcoin, FDM memberships, ZCredits and other items.
On February 18, 2025, Gery Carson announced at the SFI Forum the return of Bitcoin as an option for exchanging Rewardicals. With an exchange rate of 1,500 Rewardicals per US dollar, a minimum of $35 would be required before an exchange could be done.
When playing HIDDEN, sighting a white or albino fox at the end of a winning round is usually a rare thing indeed! But something amazing happened on February 9, 2025. The very first fox that showed up after completing the very first word of game 6300700 was a white one. Not only this, another white fox turned up after the second word, making it two whites in a row! This happened within seconds, and so it turned out the day I sighted the pair of white foxes the fastest.
SFI is now quitting affiliate business and moving everyone that is interested to be under its affiliate membership at another company called Wealthy Affiliate. They will be concentrating only on the games division, Eager Zebra (EZ), so they will be moving ECommergy subscriptions to a new Eager Zebra subscription, ranging from $2.99 to $8.99 monthly. The last commission SFI will be paying will be for this month of November.

Yesterday, November 22, while playing the fifth free game of Card King, I finally won the King’s Ransom, with a bounty of 119 ZCredits! This is for the first time since I began playing several years ago. This win is worth about $36.80, as a pack of

In the morning of October 31, I noticed a new Top 20 Player badge among my HIDDEN achievements. I was surprised a bit, as I did not really put in maximum effort during the month. Maybe if I had done so I would have been among…
From the beginning of June 2024, my Country Rank at SFI shot up from the 52nd position it was on May 31, to the
Few weeks back, SFI began preparing affiliates for a new system that had been under development for months. Its login page changed. A countdown in days, hours and minutes began showing atop the home page. The BizQuiz daily question got suspended, pending the new system. Even a “sneak peek” video was made and put on the site for people to see what was coming. Finally on June 1, 2024, the system went into effect, a more simplified one, focused on sales of its ECommergy e-commerce library. This has the potential of providing affiliates commissions from $5 to $70 per sale.

Before April, I last purchased TCurrency in 2017. (That is a digital version of the US dollar strictly for use at SFI.) Back then, my account would be credited with the TCurrency dollars immediately after I paid for the order. (Those merchants are presently no longer…
Since SFI launched a brand new system on June 1, 2023, this has been the outcome: By July 1, “Share-Tech™ has had a fantastic first 30 days!” Notable changes that have been made since then include Zingo and Astro Auctions, a new “Dev Bank,” and a restructured E-Pack.
The game of HIDDEN is great for generating Rewardicals that can be exchanged for dollars or other things. So far in 2023 it has contributed over 40% of my Rewardicals. All 10 HIDDEN games each day come with 30 free clues each, and you are not forced to spend anything to win Rewardicals. Here are some tips on how you can maximize this Rewardical generating capability everyday.
Meet the Share-Tech™ Profit Sharing System, the new simplified version of SFI that took off on June 1, 2023. There are now just two primary ranks, Affiliate and Executive Affiliate or EA. Going Executive requires ONE thing—the purchase or sale of the new Executive Pack (E-Pack). It also means you’ve staked out a position in a major new profit-sharing system that guarantees a monthly income!
My badge count is usually 26, so when I noticed 27 on the Achievements tab of the SFI home page on March 18, I went checking, scrolling down the page. I saw a new Catalyst Club badge with green border around it, indicating it was the newest. I had to click on it to see what it was for. It made me realize a new PSA of mine just made a purchase, within 30 days of signing up.

January 25, 2023 turned out an amazing day on HIDDEN in terms of Rewardicals garnered, a total of 1,063 from 10 games! It was my best day on HIDDEN in this regard, surpassing June 20, 2022 when 596 RT was…
The new year has brought a brand new digital product with it at SFI, Jolt™, an auction platform where you compete with others around the world to win different denominations of a new digital card, for a fraction of their value. One interesting thing about Jolt is that it comes with instantly earned and paid commissions. For instance, each time one of your referrals or CSAs (co-sponsored affiliates) jolts the clock at the auction, Bitcoin Satoshi is instantly added to your SFI Bit Bank! This is unlike other commissions that get processed and paid after the end of the month.
This is the tale of the
mafia in the US, spanning two generations from the 1920s. In Italy,
the mafia sprung up as a sort of grass-roots political movement to
protect the interests of locals from foreign invaders. It was thus an
alternative government, an alternative social order with its own
systems of laws and punishments. Typical of its culture was the idea
of omerta or silence, not talking to strangers and especially
the police. Transported to America by Italian immigrants, the mafia
also became an alternative secret society distrustful of the wider
society. Several mafia families sprung up in New York and across the
States, each headed by a “Don” that operated through a
layer of people in carrying out activities both legitimate and often
criminal and illegitimate.

An overview and compilation of selected quotes from the best-selling work of Frederick Forsyth: Following the visits of their leaders to each other, an arms reduction treaty is hammered out between the US and USSR. It would lead to reduction in military spending with savings amounting to hundreds of billions of dollars. It will also lead to the bankruptcy of some defense industries, especially in the US where investments has been tied up in the manufacture of advanced weapons. A group of five Americans conspire to force the American President to resign, by kidnapping and murdering his only son, but making it look like the Soviets are responsible. This is to prevent the arms reduction treaty from coming into effect. ‘… there are four kinds of kidnapper. … amateurs … plan badly… They can usually be located. … the maniacs … want nothing material; they kill for fun. … the fanatics, political or religious … filled with hate for the Establishment and therefore for their victim, who comes from it. … The professional criminal… They want money…’

On July 3, 2022, I had my longest-running Card King game ever, with a straight of 43 and score of 4200. The email I received the following day from TripleClicks showed that it got me 10 entries in the Daily Crown drawing. And the list of highest 100 scorers for the day had me at the very top, with the next highest score being 3545. Think you can beat this? Go HERE and find out.
An overview and compilation of selected quotes from the best-selling work of Frederick Forsyth, highlighting some Ukrainian freedom fighters that projected a future breakdown of the Soviet Union: ‘One day, maybe not too long from now, the Russian empire will begin to crack. One day soon, the Romanians will exercise their patriotism, and the Poles and Czechs. Followed by the Germans and Hungarians. And the Balts and Ukrainians, the Georgians and Armenians. The Russian empire will crack and crumble, the way the Roman and British empires cracked, because at last the arrogance of their mandarins became insufferable…’
An overview and compilation of selected quotes from the best-selling work of Frederick Forsyth, highlighting the selfish economic motives of foreign-sponsored coups, with echoes of the Nigerian civil war: ‘I sometimes think it was a mistake to introduce the Africans to God. Half their leaders now seem to be on first name terms with him.’ So said the British mining tycoon Sir James Manson, before he paid for mercenaries to carry out a bloody coup in a small West African republic.

At the end of January, my over-all HIDDEN rank on the Eager Zebra Leaderboard was 412, a big feat after playing the game for only a few months. In February though, I earned an even more fantastic achievement, jumping all the way to 9th position! How did I do it?
The month of January 2021 was our month of Big News Tuesdays, with some BIG, BOLD announcements coming every week: Mighty101, a revolutionary, environmentally safe cleaner with over 101 uses! Flexxity, a new platform for affiliates and non-affiliates alike to sell their SERVICES. LowLock , the newest Eager Zebra game that is simple, fun, and fast-moving. And finally, a reformed Zingo game with multiple games for slow-moving Pricebenders auctions.

September 24 marked my 5th year with SFI. Was it a good year for me? What got better or was more, what remained the same or got worse? Read on, for these and other questions.
On October 5 as promised, SFI announced the 106 winners in their biggest Eager Zebra games promo, held towards end of September. Faisal A from Israel won the star prize of 25,000 CSAs. Five affiliates from five countries each won 5,000 CSAs, while 100 from various countries won 500 CSAs each.
Playing HIDDEN earlier today I made a new personal best score of 11595 points with 32 words completed in 36 minutes, winning my 8th Fox Rainbow badge, 5 other badges and 250 Rewardicals.
Playing HIDDEN yesterday I made a new personal best score of 9680 points with 32 words completed in 30 minutes, winning a third Fox Rainbow, 4 other badges and 10 Rewardicals.
On my 53rd Zingo entry I finally hit the jackpot to win 1,000 Rewardicals! I used to wonder how quickly some people won the jackpot after just a few seconds. Well, today I won it myself within a few seconds.

A big congratulations to SFI Bronze Team Leader affiliate Yusuf O who just won the King’s Ransom at a whopping 821 TCredits! You too reading this can also be the lucky winner like this of over $1,500 in value.
July 22 was an interesting day at SFI. On the one part, I picked up 20 Daily Crown entries. Towards the end of the day (late morning SFI time), a new promotion was announced, “The Fiver,” something for SFI affiliates to end July with. 55 TCredits for $15.55 would be the lowest price EVER on TCredits!
Hidden is a word-guessing game with a lot of drama, built around a foxy theme and spiced up with some sound effects. Today I played the game to win, not only surpassing the target of 10 words but also racking up 3585 points, a Daily Crown entry and three badges.
At the newly-relaunched Pricebenders auctions, of course! And I am referring to TCredits. Most of the time, it’s the slow movers that are there, the 100-Packs, the CSA packs, and the S-Builder Co-Op Units. Whenever a 6-Pack managed to show up, it got grabbed even before…

An introduction to what SFI is all about, including how to make the money and what you need to do the work.
NuxtJS is a framework that speeds up Vue development. After working through the Traversy Nuxt JS Crash Course, I went on to explore building and deploying the production application.
NuxtJS is a framework that speeds up Vue development, including server-side rendering for Vue applications. My first formal look at NuxtJS was to work through a Traversy video titled Nuxt JS Crash Course where its features were summarized and a small application was constructed.
While pondering the idea of using a separate library like Vuex to manage shared data in Vue components, I experimented to see if a global object would not serve the purpose. I found that yes, a global object could be used in Vue components, with some provisions...
To compare and contrast, I decided to upload both versions of the Todo List app to a web server, first the enhanced HTML version, and then the CLI version from the Traversy crash course, with mixed results.
The next assignment I set for myself was to enhance the Todo app, working with my plain HTML/JavaScript version: Implementing a Data Source dropdown, saving the value as a cookie, using an SQLite database, expanding the About page, etc. This has been accomplished between April 28 and today, May 5...
The new year 2025 hit me with a surprise on logging into SFI: I had finally achieved Grand Master status in SFI Badge Quest! The realization dawned on me while playing HIDDEN. When I opened the Rewardicals Ledger to copy out my winnings at the end of a game, I saw the 2,000 Rewardicals awarded to me for the feat.
The Configuration menu of the Vue CLI GUI lets you change the options used when building for production. The settings are saved in the vue.config.js file in the project directory, which you can also edit manually.
I next gave myself the task of converting the Vue CLI Todo List app from the Traversy course to a plain HTML/JavaScript version, to see how it would go. The CLI version had 1 .html file, 2 .js files, 7 .vue files or components distributed across different directories, plus two external modules uuid and axios. At the end of the successful exercise, the non-CLI version had just three files, for the HTML, JavaScript and CSS.
The Vue JS crash course by Traversy did not include the build process for the completed application, so I tried this out after the video ended. I first used the Vue Package Manager GUI for the build, then later npm run build, sorting out the app location issue when opened with the browser afterwards.
I work through another introductory Vue course this time by popular YouTube author Brad Traversy, building a simple todo list. The Vue-Router and the Vue CLI 3 are introduced along with the Vue Package Manager, a browser-based GUI for managing applications.
In the last post on the free Vue Mastery introductory course, I summarized the first seven lessons. This is the concluding part where I summarize the last four lessons.
