Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

Was so excited to get my first wire transfer from Google Adsense. Yaaay! Until I found out that $30 was taken from it for what is labelled as commissions and some other taxes that added up to $40.00. Now I'm like, what is this life!!! Whyyyyyy????? So upset but there's nothing I can do about it.

On the bright side, first Adsense Payout. Yoohoo!
