Today I wanted to take a few moments to appreciate the fact that Wealthy Affiliate is connecting people and this community has already given me many incredible friendships.

I also want to say a big THANK YOU for all the people that I have had an opportunity to meet either here online and also "in real life" through this community.

When I joined Wealthy Affiliate in 2015, I never imagined what kind of impact this platform would have on my life.

WA Gave Me Much, Much More Than I Ever Expected!

When I got started here, I thought that my dream is to have a freedom to travel anywhere in the world and make me passive income even while I am sleeping.

WA training & community didn't only help me to make money online and travel around the world but also gave me friendships that are most likely going to last for a lifetime.

The people here at WA are amazing because they also want more out of life, they're friendly and open-minded.

Here are a few pictures that I have taken when meeting awesome WA members during my travels.

Below you can see Riaz on the left side of the picture. He gave me as a gift his company's t-shirt :) It became actually one of my favorite t-shirts and I wore it so much that it's now almost grey and the "K" has started to disappear but it's still a good t-shirt to wear at the gym! lol

Riaz is an amazing person and I had an opportunity to meet him already twice in Kuala Lumpur.

Below you can see a picture of me and Jerry in Singapore. Jerry is one of the most phenomenal persons that I personally know.

When we met in Singapore in April 2018, he was still working part-time in a restaurant and now this year he has already made even +$100k in a week.

I met with Anis (see the picture below in this post) and we we're talking that everything Jerry touches turns into gold :D

In the last month (July 2019) I visited in Barcelona in Affiliate World Conferences and after that had a few extra days in Barcelona.

I had a privilege to meet with Miren twice and we had a great time. I think that Miren is very unique WA member because it seems that most WA members are guys and older. She has had a discipline to make her website profitable already.

We also went to a beach and thought of publishing an episode "WA goes to the beach" or something funny but let's leave it for another time. ;)

Just a few days ago I visited in Budapest, Hungary and had an opportunity to meet with my 'brother' Anis.

It felt like we would have met many times before because we've talked online since 2016 I think. Anis had a huge positive impact one me starting to publish one blog post every single day in 2017 that gave nice breakthroughs with my website.

I am going to Hoi An, Vietnam for the end of this year and I tried to talk him to come there also. Let's see what he decides! ;)

Would be great to have another ambitious WA member in the same city and push each other to the higher level.


I also met Derek last year in Vietnam but we forgot to take any picture. However, I am sure that we will meet again!

If I would need to give a "WA member with the funniest jokes" that would immediately go to Derek :D

It has also been a great pleasure to share with him recently things regarding our websites and overall progress. Having these "running mates" is invaluable.

Then at the beginning of this year I met around 20 other WA members. You can see my pictures and video of the Wealthy Affiliate Las Vegas conference here. If you are coming to Vegas next year, we're going to meet there :)

A HUGE Positive Impact of Being Part of a Community

Wealthy Affiliate provides a lot:

  • Step-by-step training that teaches you to make money online
  • All necessary tools so that you can make things happen
  • Websites, support, keyword research tools, etc. etc.

However, the community aspect is HUGE.

Being part of this community here was a major reason why I started achieving breakthroughs and results online. I didn't know ANYONE personally who would make money online when I started here. That's why this community played a huge role for me.

I highly recommend especially for people who don't know personally people who make money online to get immersed in this community. Here you'll get to know many people like that.

It always gives me a feeling, "If other people are doing it, I can do it also. If they are achieving something, maybe I can achieve it too." And then I go out there and do it.

Recently, I have also become part of 2 other Internet marketing communities and I feel that has given me leverage to take my game to the next level.

I would love to hear if you have experienced the same with online communities?

Looking forward to your comments.

Cheers

I would agree that being part of the WA community has had a positive influence on my life. The community is what makes it easy to stay and drives me to get things done.

As you say the fact that others are successful and are willing to share means that I can be successful also. This is a huge influencer in what we can tell others who are looking for a way into the internet.

That is really amazing Roope. Not only does this platform provide tools, but friends and a true community, online and off. I have not experienced that in most online communities. I've been in 'gaming' communities that are very interactive but they aren't making money to travel. lol This is unique for sure. :) Thanks for the article.

I understand. Yeah, gaming communities may rather take money than make money I guess :)

So good to hear and it is wonderful we have a cross path. All the best to you and keep up the good work.

Thanks Norman, all the best to you too!

Roope, what a fun time you've had! Great post and thanks for doing a great job helping and meeting people.
Joe

Have a blessed week.
Ray

Awesome to hear that you've also got a great experience here at WA!

Thank you for your article. I love reading your comments it's always inspiring. Continue to inspire and make us dream, we all need it.

Thank you very much my friend! it's a pleasure to share :)

Hello Roope,

What a fantastic and exciting blog post, it is incredible what some members have achieved at Wealthy Affiliate, and of course, you're very good self-being one-off these people!

It's great to see what Jerry has achieved, 100K in a week, absolutely amazing, I have watched you both grow your business, fantastic!

Wishing you all the best Roope,

Roy

Thank you Roy! Yeah, the transformation while being here at Wealthy Affiliate has really been amazing!

I think your post will encourage many people to move there Internet business forward! A really great post Roope!

Hey Roope,

Really enjoyed reading this post! I sure love the community aspect of WA and you rlly inspired me to be able to meet some WA members in the future when i travel!

I've visited Hoi An 2 months ago and it's a really beautiful cultural town, Vietnam always holds a special place in me and I hope you will enjoy it!

Cheers,
Cheng Kiat

Yeah! Maybe we'll get a chance to meet too.

Hoi An is amazing. It was voted as the best city in the world recently for a good reason. I was there also last year for 2,5 months and it was my favorite place so I wanted to go back.

I've only been here for a few months but it is the community and their encouragement that has kept me sticking with it! I loved reading your story!

Happy to hear that you've also enjoyed the community so far!

I'm actually glad there is no photo of me...I'd need a wig to fit in!. Let me know when you are in Hoi An. I might just be able to pick up a new Kitaman gear for you! lol.

I do have a pending meeting with Riaz (again).

One plus story, not that long ago, Riaz was telling me he owes the offline success of his two businesses to what he achieved at WA due to his site being the source of the investment that allowed him to start what was and is his dream business.

WAwesome :-)

Sounds cool! Let's meet in Hoi An then! I'll be there from 3rd of November onwards probably 2-3 months.
