hahahahahaha FUUUCK its so true. I've tried to stay clear of that place since i was in high school, too many crazy stories about that place. Now i just go on Halloween for the half naked chicks or when friends from out of town are here. Fuckin IV, the rumor is 1 out of every 3 people out there have an STD:anon.sml: haha.
For the past 9 years I've been self employed as a Real Estate Broker. Now days that's like living on the edge of a cliff. So, in the past few months, I started playing around with affiliate marketing. I really didn't know people were making loads of cash doing it. Now, I'm on a mission to be a high roller like some of you. Heck yea I'm doing it for the money....I want out of the RE business....it's really hard right now and business is really bad for me. Nobody works harder than people who work for themselves. I was so lazy when I worked for others...oh yea..I'm admitting it. My secret goal is comedy writing, for stand up & television skits. I wish I had more time to devote to it and when I am able to quit my day job, then I will dive into that a little more. :cool-smiley-008:
Why? To be the next affiliate superstar, create a blog, bullshit like crazy, and pretend I'm important! 
Hey no better time to start than now! Most of my friends are comedians from Toronto - if you write some stuff and send it to me, I can see if one of them wants to buy it (standup material that is)
Nothing written down, but a lot of ideas and stories in my head. I know I could do it given the time. I live in Norway but hey - we can still exchange ideas etc. I'll be moving to the US in a year or two anyway.
pm me about it if you like.
Freedom. I'm slowly learning that I don't need a lot in life to really do what I want to do -- travel, meet new people, sit in cafes and refine my copywriting skills. After an accident a few weeks ago, I realized that if I were to die without doing what truly set a fire in my soul, I would never really be at peace.
Money's a tool and maybe it's just me, but I'd like to have a bigger tool than the guy next to me, heh. That's why I do this.

I have a friend and business partner who, before quitting her job, talked about wanting the freedom to be able to watch the sunset without having to squint through an office window. I told her how fucking sappy that sounded, but couldn't help agreeing. My reason wasn't quite so romantic, though. I just want to be able to sleep in when I feel like it. Hehe.
Oh and travel the world and stuff, too, but sleep first. Sleep = my happy place.

I do it all for FREEDOM. I work 80 hours a week for myself just so I do not have to work 40 for someone else.
That is So nice of you! I am taking a class right now to learn stand up, so eventually I will be preforming my own material. Hey if things don't pan out,
I'll check into this. Thanks!
Blessings!
Money. No boss...afford to travel...because working with unintelligent fucks has driven me crazy time and time again.
Honestly if you're smart and ambitious there's money to be made anywhere. Whether that's a job or working in some other business. So for someone to say they got into this business from the money is kind of a misnomer. As they got sold a bill of goods most likely without realizing what makes you successful in this makes you successful in anything I'd imagine. Hard work, intelligence, experience stick-to-it-tiveness ( <- sick word ).
For me honestly it's freedom of not having an office, although I'm considering getting one and hiring people in house possibly this year. But I have the option now to work in my PJ's and can ski, travel anytime I want. The other thing that really moves me about this industry is how fast it moves and there's always something new to learn.

- I'm smart and creative (I can design, write, and program)
- I hate people (I want to work for people I like; if I can't have that, I'll work by myself)
- I hate driving in traffic and wasting hours of my life commuting (I want to work from home)
- I need money
- I need variety
- I enjoy working on projects of my own choosing
Doing IM is the perfect fit for me.

Yet another form SB
I also went to Santa Barbara...and it's def true...1 out of 3 chicks has an STD...so bad...that's what a roll of plastic wrap is for...hahaha...
Did you go to High School in SB? I went to DP...not to be confused with Del Playa...

I did it purely for the money to start off with (I wanted to pay off loans that were starting to get too much for me). Did that, got greedy, and now I have a whole new set of problems. The cash I gave to my parents to pay off their mortgage has, without me knowing, gone towards propping up my sister's mortgage payments for her stupid overpriced house she is selling. So instead of taking the sensible offer she already had and downsizing, she is now "waiting for something better" not realising that prices are crashing around our ears. Stupid fucking bitch. And stupid fucking parents for being such a soft touch with her. GOD.
And 2 days ago my so-called friends sat around moaning about their money woes, then made pointed remarks like "If I had my own business I wouldn't have to worry about losing my job," whilst sipping the drinks I had bought. I wanted to scream at them that I spent nearly 2 years on the brink of bankruptcy building up my business (not AM, my daytime bricks'n'mortar thing) while they were jetting off on holiday and buying £400 handbags, etc etc. But I live in a town where you can't fart without it being on the front page of the local news, so I just didn't want to argue and cause a scene.
So now I have no-one to hang with, parents who eagerly await their monthly cheque from me to spend on my stupid sister and nothing to do for fun because I haven't reached the point where I can afford to move the fuck away from this hellhole. So now I'm doing AM so that I can move somewhere nice and meet new people, and it's definitely motivating me more than just chasing £££s.

Seriously though, you don't HAVE to give that check away. Especially if everyone is being so stupid. You at least get some input into the situation...
