Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.
The subject of money can be a very sensitive subject, especially on a personal level. There are many messages and blogs from both new and potential members struggling financially to make a start with, or to get on WA’s platform. It would be rewarding if we can collectively as a community find ways help pay-it-forward on this platform and help give them a start their online journey affiliate marketing.
Some of us already pay it forward in our offline lives, it’s not uncommon for someone going thru the drive-thru or in the lineup at Starbucks and many other coffee shops to pay for a cup of coffee for the next person in line.
Recently I was at the grocery store check-out and the person behind me paused on his cell phone and told the cashier he’s going to pay for my grocery, I looked to the other side of me to see who he was referring to, of course there was no one there. With a surprising look on my face and in my voice, I asked “why would you want to do that?” He appeared very genuine and lean over and said “Life is good, and all I asked is that you say a pray for me and my family.” I sense his sincerity, so I graciously accepted his generous offer, asked for his name and agreed to pray for him and his family, which I did and still do.
The above pay-it-forward system is a little more challenging online. It’s not instant, there’s a process involved and we have to beware of potential scammers.
However, on this world wide web there are people in less develop countries that don’t have a trusted pay system and don’t recognize pay systems such as the popular PayPal, and a credit card is unheard of.
