Congrats on the SWAG group selection. 5 grandkids are nice we have 2 who are twins and a total of 8 children though only 7 are mine with one from a teen pregnancy for my wife being the other. I wouldn't trade my wife, life, or family for anything and for them I do everything. I also am a firm believe in our heavenly father and congratulate you for articulating that in public during a time when it's not popular to be a Christian.

Hi Hennie, meet another old timer. When I did engineering I started out with Fortran. All of us had to teach ourselves this as the course material in computing was with Pascal.

I am so glad all that has changed except, I believe, for a few organisations.

I just left a comment on your Funnel Post.

Now let us keep in touch.

Hennie,

I need direction on WA. Currently, I'm working to dig self out of a self imposed financial hole. With that in mind, where is the best place to start on WA. Promoting the WA program or developing my own site. Given a choice, my own site is the dream, but time is a factor. Is this an appropriate question? Just under the gun, and still overwhelmed by the WA site.

Thanks!
Brendan

Hi Hennie, well you have lived through the progression of the computer age for sure. I'm not far behind you since I grew up with black and white TV, real to real recordings, and dial phones. This is a new adventure for me for sure not having much computer experience. I share your spiritual belief system. Continue blessings on this journey with WA.

Hennie,
Thank you for asking. I would focus on www.ebettercare.com, which I have built it since joining WA on 9/25/2017. Known to us inside WA, we all like to monetize the niche and the contents we are good at, am I right? That is why I have been baffled so much chiefly due to total digital blindness, but I like and struggle to rid it and let me be able to stroll on modern path of life like the younger.

I do appreciate guidance so to walk out of such pit of life.

Best to your and family,



James

Hi! Hennie,
It is nice to meet and know someone like you who are so digitally in tune with technological evolution. I admire and respect these. Your work offers a lot of inspiration to advance modern life, and I hope to aspire to follow you and move on.

If time allows, welcome to learn each other more by visiting my site as listed at the right lower corner of my WA profile page.

Keep in contact for mutual benefits to come,


James

Hi Hennie! Or is that Gu Day Mate! Not sure where you are in the world.
Hey, reason for the message, one; thanks again for your insight regarding my market niche, or niches as the case may be.
Two; I'd like you to give my undated profile a read over and see what you think. Might be a tad bit long. Wouldn't be the first time.
I am of the tendency to give my life's history to a complete stranger. Some find that a bit off putting, but hey, if you don't like that, then you're probably not going to like me over the long haul, or even the short haul, for that matter.
Love chatting with you. Any chance you'll be at the Vegas shindig? Would really get a kick out of meeting you in person.
All my best
Mark

Hennie,
Your thoughts here would be appreciated.

Okay, this is my line of thinking, at the moment. My Target Audience will be toward single women. Whether they are single moms, stay at home moms, divorcees, or just single. Huge needy audience right there.

All input appreciated!

I want to thank you for the much assistance and answers you have contributed to me. I am old school to and never before WA had I created a website. I now have created my first one and it is connected and ranking but I am still not sure how to get it to the top. I'll just keep plugging along, learning, learning, learning and placing, placing, placing and then one day I'll get referrals. This is the part that I don't yet understand. My links are on the website and I still have to figure out some of the many things I need to do to get more success. I have just started the 2nd course lessons and this is where much of my answers will come. Thanks again for all your input. Carla

Hey Henniest!

Thanks for answering my question. Hey I just looked you up on WA and saw that you love Jesus! Right on! God bless brotha Henniest! All glory to Jesus! Hopefully we meet one day! I just started on WA about almost 1 month so its been pretty good so far. I feel like there is a long journey for me ahead in this affiliate marketing stuff. So new to this. But by God's grace and plan, what ever happens, it will all be for his glory!

Aloha,

Hello Hennie and Welcome To Wealthy Affiliate.
Since you've been here you might have come to the conclusion that internet marketing can be a steep learning curve.
You must keep up with the training and keep referring to it but if you get really stuck on anything then can I suggest you browse some of the 400 blogs I have published within WA.

You can always get in touch with me as well.

You have decided to follow me and I will follow you as well.
Have a great day.
Robert Allan

Hello, Henniest.

I enjoyed reading your profile. Congrats on being a SWAG. I did not apply because I'm moving slowly through the Certification course and it's all I can do to work on my first website at this time. Hoping Kyle will do this again next year or make the training available then.

I'm planning on doing Bootcamp when I finally work my way through and have my website up and hopefully generating some income by then.

Unlike you, I am very low tech (and have a T-shirt to prove it that my sister gave me for Christmas one year!)

Following you. Have a great day.

Carol

Thanks for the connection Hennie, I appreciate all the networking that happens at WA! I've been here about 4 weeks now and have become acquainted with so many fantastic people!

I "super" excited to be part of the SWAG, and will do my best to contribute to any group efforts, even though I'm one of the new kids on the block!
~ Bob

Love your about page. How cool that you went through all those stages, from the monstrous MainFrame and forward. I am 61, so I remember all of that also, but was not into it yet!
I am also an active sister of Jesus, and I am counting on Him to help me through all of this ( and everything else, too!)
Best of luck with WA, and with all those wonderful grandkids! Carol

Hello there Henniest,
That must be an early photo 'cause you don't look 65
Isn't it grand to have grandchildren, I only have 2 but they are so precious to me.
I'm with you there about the earliest computers, I didn't even have one till about 20 yrs ago, now I go to a Computer Club to learn everything about them.
Thank you for following me I have followed you back.
Cheers Jae

Thank you for the follow. I started my first job in NCR Singapore in 1987 and at that time, NCR supplied mainframes to major banks in Singapore. Those mainframes and banking terminals still using cassette tapes to do the recording. IT is really changing each day in life.
You are right that internet is affecting our lifestyle and going online will give us an opportunity to create income stream. Wish you accomplish your goal here.

Hello old timer! Glad to see you love technology. I do too. I experienced first hand and watched computer graphics in animations and FX grew over time. I am so blessed to be part of that beginning process.

You are definite in a right place at the right time. Best wishes in accomplishing your goals in 2018.

Hi Hennie,

Thank you for following. Same old school -i'm 62. I remember late 70's, early 80's, my first encounter with computer, a minicomputer at the University in Grenoble, France - punch cards etc, then came the Apple micros, PCs, programming in Basic, Cobol etc. Thank you also for sharing the kind of love the world badly needs. I wish you all the success, peace and happiness.

Bashir

God Bless you, extra Blessings to Anette and extra love to your Grandkids. I did not work on main frames but I remember the birth of our electronics as they have evolved faster and faster every decade. This background surely helps you in your business, thanks for the follow and Happy New Year!
Victoria

Hello Hennie,♫Welcome! I am so pleased you found WA. Nice to meet you ツ I wish you a lot of learning pleasure and fun at WA. Thank you for adding me to your network.

From the start, I have written training for every issue I had problems with myself. And I share all my interesting findings on my blog space. I have listed them on a blog for you. When you type in “Blogs list top rated by Loes” into the search bar on top, you'll find my goodies under Blogs. I hope to help you with those.

If you have any questions, please reply to this message or leave a comment on my profile.
Success building your business in 2018. See you around, Greetings Loes

I was around from the early days, too, but I didn't work on main frames at that time. I am into Ham Radio, and through our radio-based Packet AX.25 system, we were ON the internet before most people even had a clue that there WAS an internet! That was back in the mid 80s. I am an elder in our little store-front church, so I'll encourage you to keep the faith as well!

I am glad to find you Hennie. I am into mainframe application development. I have a senior colleague at work who speaks about punch cards and tapes. I often ask him that it would have been awesome if he could have kept some of those samples with him. It would be interesting to see them today in comparison to how we punch in multiple jobs today on our laptop.
Thanks!
Subhadeep

Hi Hennie,

Thanx for the follow, I also worked with computers at the card reader stage but digressed for a number of years eventually getting back into PC's and running a computer support business for small business which put my kids through school.

Now, with a new partner in my life I am exploring the virtues of the internet world via affiliate marketing.

Thanx again for the follow, may your Xmas be good to you and all the best for 2018.

Steve

Hey Henniest, care for a caricature? That's ok if you don't want it,
I do it for practice and man this place is a treasure chest of new faces I can practice on.....umm, like yours.

We do have something in common we are baby boomers, lucky to say. I am proud and btw Henniest, We (us) are in the numbers. I mean bigtime numbers. We are not going out quietly, if you know what I mean.

This e-commerce marketing is huge and we play a part of it, no kidding. I'm here for 3 months now and have nothing to show but
my website outside of WA.

But I know this place is exciting for me and newbies who are just beginning their own journey such as yourself. I'm excited for you.
We have over 3 billion of us humans and counting and we now
at the beginning of a new paradyn.(I hope I said it right and mean it right too. lols) but everybody as individuals have something somebody in this world want from you and that is exciting my friend. Ok, enough of my thoughts.

Getting back Henniest, I'm drawing people care for one. I love to practice my skill and put a smile on faces. There's no catch, my professions screams for me to get better and what better place
to place but right here.

let me know my brother from a different mother.

Btw, God Bless you my friend!

Hi Hennie,
It is a pleasure to meet you! I agree with you on giving our Lord Jesus all the glory! My website does just that.
Sounds like you got in on the ground floor in "the computer evolution" and your knowledge and experience will be such a plus here!
Kyle and Carson have given us all a wonderful opportunity to learn and grow here and I am so thankful for them both. This is a very supportive community.

Blessings,
Lynn

Thanks for the love,
I wanna show some love back by sending you my blessings of health wealth and prosperity plus longevity and I encourage you to stay positive and keep striving towards your dreams and your freedoms. (Time, Financial, and Location Freedom) Stay superbly blessed and highly favored Peace

I'm sorry Henniest but my memory goes back quite a bit further than yours :) . With regard to a "main frame" the company I was with had an IBM which had to be fed with punch tapes etc. and took up a huge amount of air conditioned space. It's cost was I believe around £250,000 In the early 60's. (a huge amount of money for that time). Today a £300 desk top computer could cope in place of that main frame.
Like you I'm a Grandparent dare I say also, a Great Grandparent!!
I also believe in our Lord Jesus, The Lord of Lords and The King of Kings.
It's great to have contact with you.

Hi Hennie, thanks for following me. I'm following you back.

I'm glad I was able to help you with my recent blog post. I have quite a few others that may be of help for you now or later on. They are listed on my profile.

Wishing you success with WA :)

Hellooo,
Welcome to WA. Here, age doesn't make a difference but experience does. You do have a step up with your understanding of computers and the internet. Now it's up to you to establish your goals, blog or website and actualize those goals. You will find plenty of help with that through the Certification course and Affiliate Bootcamp lessons and you always have members to help you if you have questions. .
All the best to you.

good day- i'm following you now-- I have a question:
I'm at the part putting in my seo description, and having a problem with my thought pattern. If I'm promoting WA can i use those words (letters) in my description-- something like this 'veterans are making money with the WA affiliate program made easy, not a make money now, but a career.' don't know if i can put something like this in the description part. suggestions please!

Well we have a lot in common. I started in IT on the IBM 1401 and went to the 360 30 and eventually the fastest and biggest computer (at the time the 155 and 165. I managed computer operation for a major local bank. I got tired of the politics and moved into technical recruiting where I provide recruiting services to the hearing impaired (with technical experience). I learn American Sign Language while at the bank. I moved to the hearing candidates as I wasn't making any money (not that many deaf programmers in 1973) Anyway, I when from mainframe to desktop computing technical placement.

Look forward to more dialog.

William

I am still busy with Phase 1 of the Bootcamp. The info is so good. I wondered what the rest of the phases have in stock.

I had a look. Well, I can't wait. I wish I can take a long vacation and work on it full time. I am so excited.

Wish you all the best. Blessings.
Hennie
