Hi,
I'm from the Philippines and just to give you an idea if I was a new worker at the local Mall, the minimum wage is P500 which equals about $10 a day.
Its difficult to find good paying jobs.

But the internet means I can connect with the world and there really are no limits to what I could earn.
Whether its Affiliate Marketing or building some other business for myself and my family.
My husband Mel Waller has been working online for 11 years and living in the Philippines. He's a great role model for me to achieve more and have the freedom to do so.
Have a great weekend!
