Hello everyone, I am William and I had been searching for income solutions since I became unemployable due to health challenges and undisclosed age discrimination, (implied but not spoken).
During that period I was under employed, laid off, scammed or just not considered for employment. I tried every approach on the planet. I was becoming depressed and withdrawn. I even accepted my Social Security benefits (not entitlement as I paid into the system for over forty-five years) early at 62. I did that so as not to be a burden on my family or friends because that was how I was raised. Now maybe you’d call me head strong, proud or just stubborn, but as a former Marine and self-sufficient my whole life, I refused to give up until I solved my problems.
I took stock of my meager assets: a 2001 ford, a roof over my head, a good computer, the internet and a Social Security check that would just about cover my expenses as long as the car didn’t break, the rent didn’t go up, I didn’t eat much, and didn’t leave the house but once a week. I began my journey researching work at home opportunities. I found out that there was a lot I didn’t know. But I learned a lot until I discovered a path that would have made it easier, You guessed it, Wealthy Affiliate!
My loss and your gain., I am retired on a small fixed income and will be using my web sites coupled with the knowledge I've learned here at Wealthy Affiliate to pay those bills that are above my budget to date and more, MUCH MORE!
