Hello Edwin ... thank you for the follow. Wow, cockpit display engineer. That's heavy stuff. Do you feel your obvious digital skills have assisted you here at WA? I know the sick feeling from seeing the economy break down you retirement savings.

I got hit first by the Dot Com bust in 2000 and then once again with the 2007 Financial melt down. Definitely a shoulda, coulda, woulda.

I wish you the best on your WA journey.

Good morning. I have had such a welcome and people following and I am only in training. I have always wanted to play the piano well so got a used piano that needs tuned and a couple key s fixed on the front. You can play them okay but they are black keys so the tops have broken off. Another goal. I love the piano and music that comes from the piano. Thank you for following me. I am looking forward to creating an online business. Will help take some of the physical work away from my daily work.

Sorry to hear about the loss of your retirement savings, but I'm holding out for your real story of how with the help of WA you are now able to give more away. May your proverbial cup overflow in the days to come. Thanks again for the follow - I've added you as well. TTYL

Hello Edwin And Welcome To Wealthy Affiliate.
I actually thought we were already following each other.

Since you joined last year you will no doubt know by now that internet marketing can be a steep learning curve and there will always be something new to learn.

You must keep referring to the training (it does get updated from time to time).

If you get really stuck on anything then can I suggest you browse some of the 500+ blogs I have published within WA.

Feel free to send me a message anytime you get stuck and I will endeavour to point you in the right direction.

Have a great Tuesday.
Robert

Thank you for following me back Edwin - greatly appreciated.

Toastmasters International is a great way of
"honing communication and leadership skills".
I was not as confident to join Toastmasters. I joined Rotary, & have gained a lot of confidence over the years & also consider I will work here at WA & improve myself.

Hi! Thanks for following!
I sure you will be able to turn ate least one of your passions into a great niche idea. I love music as well (although I don't play an instrument - and probably can't carry a tune), but I will definitely check out your YouTube channel - thanks for sharing!
Good luck with WA!

Hi, Edwin.
Paul Mindra here from Ontario, Canada.

Thank you for inviting me to be a part of your network. I graciously accept by following you back.

Welcome to The Wealthy Affiliate Open Education Community.

I am pleased to make your acquaintance and look forward to learning, sharing, serving and earning alongside with you as we all move forward here.

Kindest regards,

Paul.

Hi Edwin, thanks for following me. I am pretty much in the same position your are, although I do have a few more years before I pull social security and pension. Hoping I will learn enough over the next several months to add some additional income to the mix. I play drums.

I will be following you

Greg

Hi Edwin,

Thanks again for your message on my profile.

I was reading your bio, and my father got wiped out by the recession in 08 as well.. He had 40 years in at the same company, busting his butt. I remember how many nights he came home so late when I was a youth, he gave them blood, sweat and damn near tears... They showed him the door with barely an explanation and then screwed him on his severance pay, and he lost his pension that he had been paying into the whole time. On top of that their retirement savings got decimated by the market crash. That was when I realized I wasn't happy in corporate life, and the long game wasn't there anyway. I still haven't figured out this entrepreneur thing to as much success as I want yet, but I don't regret the journey so far for a second. I can tell by the way you walk your path that success will not elude you for long.

All the best,

-J

Jets have radioactive components it their dash, guidance system for rockets launches, those dash boards are serious technology on the military side. can you kick up your foot and play piano like Jerry Lee Louis! Social Security not enough I agree, but easily counted for. Hope things work out, be well

Hi Edwin - Thanks for the follow and I will do the same.
I agree, I am very happy to have stumbled upon the Wealthy Affiliate space. I also was impacted 10 years ago as well. I've spent a lot of time getting back to where I was back then. But I realize it can all be taken away again without notice. That is why it's so important to have a place like this where we can thrive and remain in control.
Great meeting you, all the best to you,
Kevin

Hi folks, I wrote my 34th WA Blog like I was addressing a non member. It is to practice creating a similar Blog for my website 3 Radical Ways To Pay For College I posted the link above FYI.

Cheers!

Edwin

Sorry for being late - very busy days and night at the moment! :-)

Just wanted to say thank you being my follower and wish you a nice labor-day(night) ...

Old George

Hello

Please note that I am introverted and not very social (for example, I do not have any social media accounts such as Facebook or Twitter). I know that 'to 'follow' someone is part of the community and learning aspect of WA, but it is also a bit creepy, Consequently, please don't take offence if I do not reciprocate any 'followers'. Thanks!

Hello Edwin, its great meeting you hear. Yes , many of us lost a lot of our life savings in that financial crash in 2008-9, I am guessing the big boys of the 1% club were enjoying a few extra bottles of Champagne. :-) You are highly motivated to build an online income. WA is the right vehicle to get you there. You have said it, you believe it, no go and achieve it. We are cheering for you.

Hi Edwin!

Thanks for the follow - I am glad to have you in my circle. I'm excited to explore your posts & learn about your journey & any tokens of knowledge you've shared. I definitely will check o ut your Youtube channel! :)

I'm just about 1 week in here at WA & have accomplished more than I expected. I enjoy how the community works & how everyone seems to try to offer their knowledge & support. Here's to our success at WA! :)

You recently took me up on my offer to be in a mutual help group for WA members doing the super affiliate challenge. This was in my blog post Can I Support You In The Super Affiliate Challenge? .

I have now created my website for this challenge. It's https://superaffiliatechallenge.com.

Please go to that site and click Q&A from the main menu. It's a thread created especially for this group. It's password protected and the password is wasac (for wealthy affiliate super affiliate challenge). I look forward to your participation and mutual support.

Regards
Phil

Thanks for following me, Edwin!

I hope I can bring value in some form or other to everyone I meet. Even if its just to have them smile or laugh.

I hope you enjoy watching me as I go from where I am today to wherever the hell I am tomorrow. ;-)

I've been here less than a week and cannot wait to get back online and get to work and interact with the community.

Once again, thanks!

Les (remember you get MORE with Les)

Hi there.
Just wanted to leave you a quick message to say hello. I read over your bio and thought I would follow you. Feel free to follow me in return and if you want to contact me for anything or just want to say hello, please don't hesitate. All the best for 2019.
Hope you have a awesome day
Cheers
Dave

Hi Edwin,
I read your post, How to have peace of mind – a path for righting wrongs, and I was going to leave a comment but I couldn't find the section below it to leave the comment. I thought you might want to check your post to see why. Let me know so I can go back and comment for you.

Shiloh

I learned something new today on WordPress by accident. I discovered where comments get sent awaiting approval before being posted on ones site. I found out I received FIVE great comments. That made my day!

One of my posts that had received a comment was missing. I was able to get the link reintroduced in the right margin by changing the publish date.

Has anyone else had one or more of their posts links disappear? And if so how did they get them back differently than what I did?

Thanks for your time to respond.

Welcome to WA. It’s participation and persistence to get there and also takes a lot of creative thought to process...
Yes, thank you for following. And I am hungry to get started.
I am finding so much information for goals to success. This is surely a great opportunity with just what I need to develop independence and dreams.
Yes, www is a big world brought together with WA...
I’m just following my heart... if you’re into books, this will work out. Giving it time to sink in.

Truly grateful, thanks for the launch 🚀

Hi, Edwin.

Welcome to Wealthy Affiliate. WA is a great community. There is so much to learn. I am here most days. I learn something every day.

I've been a Premium member of Wealthy Affiliate over 18 months now, and I don't regret one day!

Keep moving ahead. However your day may be, take a little step forward. Some days you'll make significant strikes, other days you will not, but do something every day, however small in building your business.

You will read many stories of WA members succeeding with their online goals. Some have achieved this in a few months, for others, it has taken a couple of years. The common trait for those that have reached their goals is taking action. Everyone who has succeeded has taken small steps every day. Do something, however tiny, every day, and you will reach your goal.

Pace yourself and enjoy your journey.

Best wishes,
Paul.
Be Happy!

Glad to hear that you’ve become a Premium Member! This is a smart choice, as you now have access to the entire training regimen. In addition, you'll be able to contact and draw upon the knowledge and experience of thousands of like-minded business owners!

Hey Edwin!

Congrats and welcome to WA premium!

I think the most import thing to do with any new venture is to "plug in" and be consistent. Schedule time each day to do the training, work on your site and write content. You'll find that content is king. :)

Welcome to WA PREMIUM
You've made a life-changing decision. If you stick with it, over time your greatest dreams will come true. Can you imagine what it was like when the first owners of telephones placed them? They were cash machines.

You purchased a cash machine when you chose to go premium. You have proven to be a true entrepreneur and a goal setting winner. Please don't forget to FOLLOW BACK AND LIKE OFTEN. In fact, thank you in advance for the follow back and the like!

Your ranking will improve when you comment and like just like in the real world when people follow and like your site will move higher in the search engine. Follow the training to get a deep understanding of the internet. So, again, thank you in advance for the following. Enjoy and take it easy.

Greetings, and welcome to Premium. I think it's a great opportunity for learning, doing, and interacting with like-minded people. I hope your experience here will lead to success beyond your dreams.
All the best,
Wendy

Congratulations on your move to premium. The benefits and services are great and there are many talented and helpful mentors for us here. I hope you progress quickly toward your goals. Good luck.
Joe

Hello and welcome to Premium. This website is full of wonderful helpers and I have learnt to always use the search tab at the top of the desktop, the answer is usually in someone's free training. Type in topic, rather than long question.
There is an answer to just about every question, all you need to do is ask..
Aside from the Certification and Bootcamp courses, there is heaps of extra training. Check out the training classrooms as well as the live events. There are current as well as past events in here. You can find both these tabs on the left-hand side
Start playing with tabs and boxes on your dashboard, there is so much hidden information, just keep looking for it.
Enjoy Wealthy Affiliate. There are lots of people here only too happy to help you along the way with encouragement and helpful tips. Wealthy Affiliate is about training, but that is just a small part of this wonderful community. If you participate as well as train, you will gain so much more.
cheers
KerryAnn

Hi and congratulations on your becoming a premier member! It is awesome to have you on board. You will quickly find as you continue in your training how amazing this community is and with the support that you will receive as you progress. Here is to the new you! May you achieve everything that you wish to and more at WA :)

Hi Edwin, welcome to WA!

My name is Tim, you might remember me from my website Affiliate UNguru.

Just stopping by to say hello and to see if there's anything I can do to help you get started?

If so, just reply to this message and I'll get back to you asap :)

I also wanted to give you the link to start your training: Online Entrepreneur Certification - Getting Started Level 1 This is where I recommend you start your training. Everything you need to know is explained within these lessons and there are tasks to complete as you go too (which I also recommend doing).

I'm super excited to share this with you, because this is the exact training I followed myself to go from newbie to full time income online!

I know you are going to love this.

The last thing I wanted to mention is that it's totally ok to ask lots of questions. In fact, the more questions you ask the better!

Because when you ask questions, you have the rare opportunity to learn from people who have achieved some incredible success, by following the exact same path you are on right now.

This is extremely powerful stuff and it's one of the biggest reasons why WA stands head and shoulders above ANY other platform I have ever tried.

I remember when I first started here I asked LOTS of questions (even though I was worried some of them were 'dumb questions' lol). And I'm glad I did, because the value I got from being able to learn from people who were already successful was absolutely priceless.

It really was a major turning point for me, and it can be for you too.

So I encourage you to ask lots of questions and get amongst this awesome community as much as possible. The more you engage with the WA community, the more you will learn, and the more successful you will become!

Anyways Edwin, it's wonderful to have you as part of the WA community and I wish you the very best of success on your journey here!

Cheers,
Tim

P.S I also wanted to give you the heads up on some cool bonuses I've got lined up for you, if you upgrade to a Premium membership within your first 7 days!

★ Bonus #1 | Special Discount
You will get over 61% off your first month Premium membership (from $49 to $19)... which is an absolute steal! Getting everything you need to build a profitable online business for such a low price is simply a no brainer.

★ Bonus #2 | Live Case Study
Exclusive access to a Live case study that walks you through the EXACT process of creating a profitable niche website- right in front of your eyes- over the shoulder. This one bonus alone could change everything for you, as you are seeing the entire process in action from "idea to profit"- step-by-step, click by click. This case study is not available anywhere else so it's very high value stuff.

★ Bonus #3 | I Will Personally Help You Choose a Niche
One of the biggest stumbling blocks beginners face is choosing a niche. But it doesn't have to be that way. Because I'm personally going to walk you through choosing a profitable niche. Based on YOUR passion or interest! No more guesswork and no more 'fear' you've chosen the wrong niche. I am personally going to be working with you to help you find a winning niche!

★ Bonus #4 | 1-on-1 Coaching and Mentoring
I know it can be challenging when you're first starting out. So as a bonus on top of everything else I've just mentioned, I'm going to offer you personal and private access to me! I will be your mentor, your coach. I will be there for you every step of the way to make sure you reach and exceed your goals. I started right where you are now and worked my way to a full time income online. Which means I know what works and I know how to help you succeed. I am uniquely positioned to help you achieve your goals, in the shortest amount of time possible. So this is going to be a HUGE help to you going forward. Honestly, this ONE bonus alone is worth MANY times more than the cost of the Premium membership. This is going to put you in the best shape possible to achieve real success online.

There's no pressure to upgrade if you're not ready yet. I just wanted to give you the heads up now, so you know what you will get if you do decide to become a Premium member within the next 7 days. Talk soon!
