But, many are too lazy, and they just want the magic answer handed to them. It is sad to think of how many people believe that the only way to financial success is to become famous or win the lottery. Umm....no. There are other ways. Even if you come from nothing. You have no money. You don't know any successful people. You hate people. You didn't go to college. You didn't finish high school. It doesn't matter - and the key is .....working your ass off.
Do you think successful people ended up that way by sitting in front of an episode of The View, eating fruit loops? No, they had a plan. A goal. A vision. And they chipped away at it, day by day. Chipping away daily is exactly how I got to where I am today, working from home, in my pj's, enjoying the view of the Las Vegas strip from my patio. Now, I am by no means rich - and am not claiming to be. But I am exactly where I want to be, and I am ecstatic about the way my life has turned out. I am successful to my standards. (Read my about page if you want to know more about my past.) I stay at home with my two babies, and make enough money to be content; however one day, I would like to be very happily and comfortably content.
Anyway, in the last 6+ years that it has been to get me to this point, I have spend hours and hours and days and dog lifetimes researching, learning, practicing, and collecting information that will be useful from time to time. Google is my favorite teacher. Aside from Oprah and a few close people in my life, she has taught me a lot of shit. So, what to do with all of this information? Share it of course!
There is a shitload of information out there. And I mean a SHITLOAD. Blogs. Articles. Ebooks. Websites. Forums. And lots - most likely hundreds of thousands of people on the internet making money by telling you how to make money. And for every 1 legitimate work at home opportunity, there are 50 scams. Well, you are lucky to be here, and this must be fate, because I am in the know. I know where to find work from home jobs, how to start a website, how to start a blog, how to build websites, and how to advertise your site (if you have one) ALL FOR FREE.
This page is all of the great, amazing, legit and useful resources that I know of, as well as I will post new articles from time to time when I come across new and helpful information. I hope this page is helpful. It is a goldmine of resources, if you take the time to learn something new, and create the life that you want to live, baby steps at a time.
