Hello everyone. My name is Jimmy.
** Many Thanks to Everyone who has followed me or Followed Back.. It is deeply appreciated, and I look forward to getting to know the community better. **
I have been "working" to build a business online for many years now. However, I have had a tendency to chase BSOs (bright shiny objects).
On Feb. 23, 2016, I had a heart attack. It has rekindled my desire to generate my Own income and not be dependent on a regular "job."
I am former U.S. Navy..serving from 1987 to 1993 as a nuclear power Electrician's Mate. The world view has changed much since then, it seems.
Over the years, I have managed to earn 'money' online. The largest at one time being $108. I've been receiving a recurring commission for just over 2 years from a website that I promoted only once ( it is only $9.60 a month.. but paid every month). So I KNOW that we can earn money online. It is merely a matter of scale.

Hi Jimmy
I know the feeling - oh do I know the feeling! Yes - we KNOW it can be done! I too have earned a little here and there and I've even sold stuff from a website I created - BUT - the dream of an income keeps eluding me! Kudos for picking yourself up after your heart attack - hope you are doing ok now. I've been AWOL from WA for some months. I was very active back a bit, but I allowed some negativity from 'f & f' to affect me and I just couldn't seem to get back. However - I came here today to see whats been happening in my absence and find a your profile first off! It just happened to strike a chord.
Cheers

It is good to see you are back. Sorry it took so long to respond.
F & F can mess us up sometimes. Try not to let negativity influence you. I have found over the years that when people think you are going to do better than they are OR when they just don't understand how you can pursue "that internet thing" (or any business venture really) ... they will have all sorts of negative comments.
Good luck to you.. Hope to see you around.

Hi Jimmy,
Read your profile, you are right it's just a matter of scaling up the income and this is the right place to do it.
How are things going? I have looked at your blogs which contain some good info. How are things progressing for you ?
Thanks for the follow have followed you back.
I will stop by again
Best regards ...Age...

Things are going ok, right now.
One of my 'problems' is that I am not hungry enough. I have a fairly good job and make pretty good money at it, so it affects my motivation a little.
I am still dedicated to being my own boss, it is just taking me longer than I have wanted it to happen.
One thing for sure that I can say, if we don't have any buy buttons ( or calls to action) on our sites then we can't earn any money.

Yes I am a BSO chaser too. I loved that analogy. You are right though, it's only a matter of scale. I do have had a similar level of success with recurring income and it just needs to be a couple of orders of magnitude more. I agree. Good luck and feel free to knock on my door for a brainstorm.

3) I can invest 15 hours a week during my off-duty hours and 60+ hours during my time off.
My goal is to earn 5 grand a month with my online business by July 2016 and build the business from there to be earning 25 grand a month by February 2017.
