So far, my experience at WA has been great!
I hope I can encourage anyone working to make their dreams a reality to KEEP GOING!
Only months ago, I was abruptly laid off for no fault of my own. I've never relied on a single stream of income. I've always kept contract work, and side jobs close at hand. Within a month of being laid off, the company I did contract work for lost their three biggest clients (about 80% of their contracts). A few months later, both of my parents suffered medical conditions. One had to undergo surgery, and the other was required to stay off his feet. And they'd just gotten a new puppy (a big, beautiful German Shepherd/husky mutt).
I had been cut off from all my usual streams of income. I struggled to help my family get through this. I had no idea where I would get money for the next couple months, much less a regular stream of income. Briefly, I contemplated extreme decisions (even suicide), but I thought of all the people who were relying on me.
Looking for work online, I stumbled across WA through Brok's site http://www.fulltimejobfromhome.com/. I had no reason to believe that I could afford to invest in myself this way. But I KNEW I couldn't wait another moment to seize my future by the 'nads. I believed, and I took action.

Not even two months since I've joined, I have learned so much! I've been developing a site just for sharing positive news (big and small) with people. Years ago I designed a comic book universe. Now people are writing for it, and it's gaining traction on the web (srecomics.com). More artists are sending in designs for characters. I now have a regular gig that brings in weekly income, but allows me to work on developing my web acumen almost full time.
This week, a friend was sharing with me about how a business deal blew up on her. She was doing everything right, but the whole thing went south and they lost a lot of money. She and her husband had taken a risk, and put everything into making their investment a success. Like me, she had wrestled with suicidal thoughts, not knowing how they would make it. This time, I was able to encourage her, and remind her of the beautiful daughter that was looking up to her. I was able to share my hope, however meager it felt to me.
There's an anecdotal story of a general who had to sail to war. Once he and his men had unloaded, he ordered them to burn the ships. He told the men that their was no going back, they either won or died. They Won!
For a while, it seemed that fate was burning my ships. I wanted to head back into the water and get the drowning over with. But now I know that the key to winning is committing to the success. Nothing could drive me back into my old life. I WILL make my life. I WILL build wealth for my daughter. I WILL share what I've learned with as many people as will listen.
WE WILL WIN!
If you have any good news you wanna share, PLEASE add it in the comments and/or on my site @ GNFTH.COM
I want to be encouraged by you as much as I hope you are encouraged by my continuing story.
