COMPLAINTS, COMPLAINTS, COMPLAINTS.

Here's what I hear in the discussion section from many people just arriving.

Oh the horror. the tragedy, the humanity, the shame of it all. I read in discussion, I have been here two days, let me tell you everything that's wrong at Wealthy Affiliate. Got a minute?

Well first of all nobody told me about the Gravatar Account. What, I have to give two comments to get one. By the way, when do we make money. There's more.

How do they expect me to get this set up in seven days? What a scam leading me on then charging me $19. for the month. I would not have signed up if I knew I needed to buy a domain (You Don't). If I can make enough money in the free period then I'll pay. If I can't it's another scam.

IT'S NOT WA, IT'S YOU

I could fill up pages of comments like the above coming from these leaders of optimism. You offer someone the world on a platter and their response is, "this food is cold".

My advice to these people is to change your attitude and save your complaints for when you really have some thing to bitch about. I am sure you will find something.

Before all of us is an opportunity to learn about making money online. Now you can choose to complain about every perceived problem here or you can focus on learning how to build a profitable online business. Your choice.

My hope is that you choose the business and a better life for you. Today I went yearly and in spite of WA's flaws I will go yearly again when it's time. That means my cost is about $30 a month. How about you?

IT'S YOUR CALL.

You can find faults in anything if you look hard enough. However, may I suggest that you complainers stop crying about the problems you see here (after day 2) and remember why you came here.

To learn how to make money. It's up to you, not WA. They know how to make money online. Now I know when you fail to make money here it will not be your fault but WA's fault. After all with all these problems, slights, horrors, old training, bad explaining, this to sign up for, that to sign up for, domains to buy and an overall affront to mankind itself. You may ask.

Has anybody ever made any money amid all these mistakes and this mess they call Wealthy Affiliate?

Yes, I have, and you can too.
