So what was In saying about, oh yeah, two years ago I went Premium.

I knew I wanted more than two sites and I wanted the more intense training that
came with Premium, but the're real life issues that needed to be
addressed.

Back to the Story

After Laura and I moved out of our house (2013), we started staying at our daughters. We use a basement bedroom and the basement is finished so I have a work space and WiFi. However, we were/are traveling back and forth between our property andIndianapolis, in Indy three to four days and at the property three to four days per week. We have been doing that for five years.

At our property would stay in a camper until our cabin was livable. We moved into the cabin in 2014.

Our cabin needed work if we were going to live there full time. So that is really number one priority for spring and summer.

This is now

So, in September 2016, I stumble across WA. if you have read my first blog
https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/jthommen/blog/its-a-start
I said "I am sitting in an unheated shed about 300 yards from my cabin. The shed has WiFi but the WiFi does not reach my cabin." I was using a refurbished Dell laptop trying to run windows 10 with two GB memory. Then Randy had to give up WiFI. Now what? The only "good" cell service at the Property was and is AT&T (not a plug just a fact). So I bought a Hotshot device and bumped my data plan to 50GB/month with rollover ($20/mo). That barely reached the shed. So that gave Randy WiFi but still not me at the cabin. Next solution use my phone as a tether. Barely workable as my phone was old and not really being supported. (By the way, I am the IT guy for our community so it my job.) The other factor is Laura use 12 volts DC through solar panels. So now I needed a new laptop and phone.

So what has changed? Truck is paid off, house in Indy finally sold. Most important of all the Property is Paid off. So now Laura have some financial relief. There is still work to be done on the cabin but that will be never ending. I now have a new laptop and phone and they work great at the cabin. Now I can work WA here and at the property.

Time to really dig in and start. That is one of the reasons for the two blogs. Practice, I need a lot as I have not done any creative writing since college.

Yes I stayed Premium for two years and never did anything. Why? Because I believe in what Kyle and Carson are doing here with WA and I wanted to support that effort. One of the results of that is that I can now use WA on my phone. ( Great of training videos)

So at this point in my life, I am still setting priorities. Life is about setting goals and priorities and continually pushing for that goal. My goal is to make the people in my community some money. Randy has goals, Bobbie has goals, and Laura and I have goals. So my goal for the next year is to start my online business. Start sell products that Randy makes. Start selling items the Bobbie finds in storage units. To become an affiliate with WA to bring other onto this great platform. To learn all I can about this business.

This story will be fleshed out on my website when it is ready. So my next priority is to go back through the training, finish my first website and publish it to the web. The real works starts now but I feel things are in now in place to accomplish my goal.
