I am Derek, born and raised in the UK. As my picture shows I am no longer a youngster but I am willing to learn as much as I can to improve my financial well being. (Who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks).
Some will say I am past my use by date but I just ignore them and carry on anyway.
I have been meddling on the internet for some time, but I have always found an excuse for not being successful, or possibly for not following things through to a conclusion. Procrastination plays a big part in this.
I thought it was time to do something useful with the rest of my life, but to do this I also need to earn an income. (A basic state pension is not at all a good one).
I will be happy to hear from other users and also happy to share my life experiences.
Here we are a month down the line and although I have not progressed as quickly as some may have I am pleased with the progress made so far. Although I have other online blogs I have started to realize why they are not making me money.
Once I get my present blog running the way I want it I will have to go back to these other blogs and rebuild them. All I can say is thankyou WA and the WA community. I have learned more about blogging in a month here than I have learned in years elsewhere.

Hi Derek!
Congratulations on the strides you've already made! I am less than one week in and I too feel like I have learned so much! You say something very powerful...that in the past you made excuses for NOT being successful. What a powerful perspective. Thank you for sharing your story with us!

Hi there - a fellow "old dog" returns your follow.
It's interesting to see that there are others in my situation who refuse to step down and want to do something useful instead of being linked to the rocking chair!
Let's get together and "rak in the profits" for us as well - not leaving veruthing to the millenials and other youngsters...! :)

Hello Derek,
It is great connecting with you here at WA. Like you I'm a pensioner, but live in NZ.
My progress also, is not as fast as I wanted it to be. But the really great thing about the WA platform is that I can trust it! And I intend to stay as a premium member and keep learning and developing my site.
Go well in your journey.

Hi Derek, I liked reading your bio. I always say: I am getting younger every day because today is an other day closer to eternity. An inspiration from Psalm 92:13-16

Hi Derek,
I think you have been reading my mail!
I'm no longer a pup and looking for a way to add to my retirement.
"Procrastination plays a big part in this." Oh, how true! My biggest fault and not falling through is another. I just need some direction and I feel I have found it here at WA. Now the ball is in my court.

Cool Derek. Like yourself I have aged even from the picture shown. At 58 I'm finally ready to start anew and begin a journey full of promise. Thank you for the follow as I too will keep up with your progress. My going Premium will have to wait a couple days as my son in law and myself are heading to Phoenix Arizona to look for an automobile. I am from New Mexico near the four corners (the only place where four states connect within the US). Hope to talk with you as soon as I return. Thanks again and good luck!

Hi there!
It's very nice to meet you. I am also living on a fixed income an' you're right; it is NOT all it's cracked up to be. Thus, we all come together on WA an' work together to gain success for all.
I appreciate that you are still willing to learn. I personally feel that THAT is a big key to continuing to grow older with grace. We must always be willing to learn... from whomever an' whatever situation may present itself.
We can do it. Jus' hang in there an', with all of us pulling together an' encouraging each other, we can all keep moving forward.
Warmly,
~ Yaya

Hi Derek. You are a real inspiration to me. So much in your post echoes my own experience. Our age group, love of lifelong learning.........the procrastination! But I truly believe humans do not have a sell-by date.
I wish you all the best and much fun in this new adventure and I look forward to learning from you too.

I'd say never say never. It's never too late to learn anything. It is what you do with the new learning that is important.
I also never imagined myself doing any type of online business. Glad I found WA with their step by step training. Just have to find the time and discipline to go through all the training.

Hi Derek,
I noticed that you’re following me. Thanks so much for that. I hope and pray for your success here at WA. I’m wondering if we could do each other a favor? Could we possibly exchange a comment on a recent post, on each other’s website? I know time is precious, so I certainly understand if the timing is not the best for you. Anyway, if you’re able, here’s the post I need a comment on: https://howtoloveelementary.com/why-do-i-feel-like-a-child/
Please send me a link to your most recent post and I’ll add a comment for you. A warm thanks to you in advance.

Thanks for following. Just go through the training and courses by Kyle, anything else is secondary. If you want to look at something in more detail then do so by typing into question bar. Chat is also helpful and you can also ASK question.
But don't get too bogged down and go through main training and keep going. It a good learning curve.

It may take time but you'll be glad that you stuck with it. I've learned a lot already and I'm continuing to do so. You don't have to be in a hurry just continue at your own pace.

Sir Derek,
Indeed, thank you so much for the follow which I have just reciprocate. You have an amazing profile that I really enjoyed reading and laughed hard about it as it speaks of my personal predicament as well. Yes, indeed, you just made my evening more enjoyable than ever on this island paradise on the other side away from your world. I like your fantabulous humor.
I thought I would be working extra harder now that I have all the time on my hand, but as you eloquently expressed...procrastination is the culprit.
You have a great one. Good luck and God Bless.

The person was asking for comments on his posts. In his eyes, I was giving comments on his website and not the post ( I did actually both ) he declined the comment and sent me a long mail telling who stupid I actually reacted. I was just honest and tried to help him with the best...pfff. some people really don't get it.

Hi Derek, I am retired myself since 1999. I often wonder why I didn't join this business earlier. But this is where we are at now. I believe there is still time left to build this business and enjoy life at the same time. As long as we are around might as well make the most of it.

I think when I started I was too impatient and wanted to learn everything as quickly as possible.
Of course, I set myself an all but impossible task. Now I am just going with the flow, ok so I won't be earning as quickly as some but I am doing a more thorough job of it now.

Hi and thank you for the follow. Just a side note, after reading your post - small progress is better than no progress at all. Also, by acknowledging your mistakes (or to even realise why they are not making money) has already made you progress more than you realised - well done :)

Good evening to you Derek, my name is Ken and I welcome you to WA and thank you for the follow. I'm following you back.
I am also here to make sure my income going into retirement will continue to grow. You are in good company and the only thing keeping you from a six figure income is you. Consistency is the key - that and never quit!
I look forward to answering any questions you may seek. I wish you much enjoyment and success in your online journey.

Don't listen to those "use by date" people. You have many, many years to go. You mentioned one of my main interests there also. Making retirement a little more comfortable by supplementing whatever pensions a person my have.
I hate the mental picture so many people have of the helpless and almost penniless old and weak pensioner.
Remember that your income in old age is only "fixed" is you allow it to be that way.

You are certainly right Dave. That is why I am not sitting around festering like others that I know.

Thank you, FirstLearn for the follow. You are absolutely right I am going to be 63 in September and I am still following my dream!
Living on S.S.I is not enough to pay the rent and put food in your stomach. I have been trying to be successful at an online business since 1999. I have a good feeling about Wealthy Affiliate. While leaving comments on websites that are finished made me realize all the errors I have to correct on my website. A good learning tool, not an easy one. If they don't like your comment you get disapproved. Wrote 5 comments so far 2 are approved.
Much Success,
RP

Hi Derek,
Thanks for adding me to your network; I’m adding you to mine as well. I read your bio and was struck by the notion that some people say you’re past your “use by” date. Just remind them that George Elliot said “It’s never too late to be who you might have been.” It’s my new mantra!
Best,
Nancy

Hi Derek, yes it's really good, I am not too far in front of you, and I have learned a lot also, I knew squat, nothing before I joined WA I have to say I am enjoying it most of the time, especially posting my content I like the writing, and still myself in training on level 5.
So good luck to you wish you success.

Hello Derek ! Thanks for the follow. Following you right back. My Dad lived to be 102 and at age 97 told me he was not old. He continued to be productive through ideas a lot of which were translated to reality by others for him.
The best to you here at WA and BEYOND !

Hi Derek, thanks for the follow. I read your Bio. I to am not a youngster, but that has not held me back. I now have three Blogs and two websites. One of the Blogs and websites is for my better half Trish. I have built them for her. I really didn't know what I was doing before joining WA. If you do each course and complete each assignment without skipping any you can't help but be successful. It was through WA that I have been able to accomplish what I have. Another great thing about WA is the Community. If you get stuck on something and can't figure it out ask the Community. Let me tell you, there is so much talent and knowledge out there it is unbelievable. Also I am following you now. We can watch each other grow. I wish you the best of everything. :-) Frank

Hi Derek! Thanks so much for adding me to your network. I've added you to mine as well.
I completely understand the procrastinating issue. I'm great at that myself. ;) May we both overcome that little quirk of ours. :)
I wish you much success on your journey here at WA! You're definitely in the right place for it to happen!

Howdy Derek!
Glad you are here :)
You've found a great thriving community and place to learn new skills that can really pay out. Internet Marketing is fast paced and can seem a little complex at times.
My best advice to you is to not only start, but also finish the Online Entrepreneur Certification (OEC). By completing all 5 courses, you will have learned how to use this platform and have good base skillset to get your online business going.
Thanks for follow. Glad we're connected. Look forward to learning from each other!

Its was great to hear from you, I also live in UK and like yourself have been looking to build an on-line business since I retired from mental health nursing in the NHS. I am making slow but steady progress and will try to look out for you and offer support wherever or whenever I feel able to. Will also follow you. Wishing you every success.
