Thanks for the information, DRL. I'll have to look into it all. It will be fun playing detective. lol Much to learn and investigate. I'll check out your WA blog and then tell you what I think.

Okay, I'll read that link in a moment. Thanks.
Wish you the best too.:-)

Yes, I can ask bank about required business license when I go inquire about business account.

Lots of resources to turn to for free.

Thanks.:-)

I agree it's preferable to make money being self-employed than being underpaid working for someone else and let the employer keep all the credit as well as the money, once one has found the right outlet to build a business, which WA provides.
Thanks. Best wishes.

Hello Leonard,
I appreciate your follow.:) Thanks for the well wishes for me and Mooch. We both appreciate it. Nice that you're an animal lover also. That makes the world a more beautiful place. Best wishes and cheers!

Yes, Mooch is a cutie, but extremely demanding. We have a love/annoyance relationship. He's a bratty little angel.

That's so funny. That's how Sophie is too, very demanding. She is very impatient and if you don't do what she wants right away she meows loudly until you do it. Not just a normal meow but loud as she stares you in the eyes. Lol! We love her to pieces though. She's probably spoiled.

Yes, pets can be spoiled, but that's how they should be or rather treated dearly. Pets can be challenging just like human children. I have no human children, but I think I have an understanding of what's it like from having Mooch.

Yes, I see you have a lot of blog and training material on your profile. Thank you, Loes. I'm sure I'll find something that will be helpful. Best wishes.

Well, Mickeyb, it sounds like you used your inheritance well. I think whether getting money without earning it can be positive or negative also depending on when you get it. Growing up, I had materialistic parents who I feel financially enabled me and somewhat crippled me in that way. Thus, I had to learn later to develop a work ethic. However, I wouldn't mind some inheritance now so that I don't have to work at a "real job" at all and just work at this now that I do have more or less of a work ethic. Money in itself is not THAT important as people make it. I guess that's why people who win lotteries often aren't better off. Also, I heard people often lose their lottery gains after only a few years because they have not altered their self-image to fit that of a wealthy person. In any case, as you seem to agree with it, it is far more rewarding to earn a big income than to just have it handed to you.

That is absolutely true!

I have never, until just recently, NOT worked at a fairly physical job so that my family has all of the stuff they need and a lot of what they want! (My medical issues, at this point have kinda taken over in that regard....)

As for myself, I don't have a family to support, just me and my cat. Have to find meaning in life some other way. More to life than food and shelter alone. I believe niche website that has relevance to oneself and importance to others provides meaning as well as money. It's a good thing money doesn't grow on trees; otherwise, there would be less of an incentive. Best wishes to you.

Thanks. Right, I agree. Best wishes.

Don't worry about it, Igor. I look forward to getting it and seeing what it says about me when it's ready.
Thanks,
Boo, aka Jean

Thanks a lot Jean for understanding!

Sure, Igor. (My computer was slow yesterday. After disk cleanup and uninstalling a few things, it's functioning normal again.)

Thanks a lot!

Thanks, Joy. I'll take a look at the info from the link.

So much information to read, always feel like trying to catch up.

I got 2 speed reading courses from Udemy. I found out yesterdays from taking an online reading test from Staples website that my current speed is 220 wpm. I finished watching the first speed reading course yesterday. One thing that was emphasized is not to read every word because we can take in patterns and ideas without reading all words. So one technique is to start reading from right to left, then on next line left to right, then next line right to left. This also decreases vocalization. This seems impossible in terms of comprehension but supposedly is effective with practice.)

Since today is the final day of Udemy sale at $15 a course, I decided to pick up a couple of more courses (and this is my last investment for a while). One is "Confidence On Camera" and the other is "5-Step Creative Process To Branding." I picture myself making video with myself on camera and posting on YouTube, which is good way to get the word out.

Do you have videos? Do you plan to make videos?

Jean

Hi Jean,

I am re-focusing at the moment. I have been a relationship and life coach who has always also worked with start-up businesses to help them get on their feet. I have also been hosting retreats and ecstatic dance classes as well as helping my husband run his business and my daughter run hers for years.

Because I have decided to focus in a slightly different direction with my coaching, writing, and online business, so it is taking some time. Yes, I plan on having a variety of books written, video courses, and hope to get into hosting webinars.

It all takes time, :) Working at it one step at a time (or sometimes more:)

All we can do is keep moving forward!

Joy

Joy!

Well, best wishes with your business endeavors/helping people.

Still more fun being busy than having no opportunities or moping.:)

Jean

Jean,

I love to have many streams of incomes, from different businesses and love staying busy with multiple projects! It's my life's passion...

:) Joy

Wow, that's a lot of blogs on WA. One thing I need to do is greatly increase my reading speed. Knowledge is power to write good content. Okay, Robert. And have a beautiful day as well.

Hi again Jean it’s a good idea (only if you want to) to click the 'Like' icon within a comment if you like it as I have done with yours.
Obviously you don't have to click every single comment or you will be here all day doing nothing but.
But to click the ones you like that are replies to your own comments will be reflected in your WA ranking because it shows you are getting involved with the community.
Enjoy your day.
Robert

Yes, of course. I know what you mean. As a human, can sometimes forget, but I do like your comments. Thanks.

Yes, nice live chat. Okay, I'll read some of the articles on your site. Maybe post a comment soon.

That would be greatly appreciated. If and when you have you're blog up send it over to my wall and I will return the favor.

By "blog", I assume you mean affiliate website, right? In regards to my website, FYI, I'm sort of a slowpoke, but I'll inform you when I'd like comments. Thanks.

Hi Shawn,
Your website looks like a magazine with (increasingly) loads of info on sleep apnea. Not a lot of bells and whistles, just helpful info. Nice picture on the About Me page.:) I was wondering about "You May Also Like" where it looks like there are links to other websites? Does this help with traffic?

Thanks for taking the time to look over my site! The "You May Also Like" section was just added. It is part of the SumoMe plugin. I'm not sure if it helps with traffic and I'm wondering if it actually detracts from my website. I'll have to give it more thought and maybe ask a few more people what they think!
Regards,
Shawn

Hmm, don't know anything about SumoMe plugin, but that's one of the things I want to learn. Yeah, not sure if the "You May Also Like" section from the plugin is a good idea or not. Best wishes.

Thank you, John. The training rocks, I agree. I know I just need to spend more time on it. And you can get any question answered by the community or by sending a private message. Wish you the best.

Well a little time spent each day on the training can amount to a great deal in the long run. Have a nice day. John
