It Was Sucking My Will to Live!

I'm ecstatic to not be a Realtor anymore!

I spent close to 30 years thrashing around trying to get rich in the real estate industry.

Don't get me wrong, I still fully believe in the ownership of real estate. It is the foundation for wealth in this great country of ours. Right now there is a lot of doom and gloom about values dropping through the floor and a lot of it is well founded. Don't panic, The market will rebound eventually and prices will rise again. Unfortunately it may be longer than a lot of people think before this happens.

But the market is really not what I'm here to talk about today.

I'm here to talk about my escape from the residential real estate trap.......That's right! I escaped.

Selling residential real estate is a dream job for some people. I know several people who can't think of anything else they would rather do than to go show houses all day long to some young family with a couple of kids. Some of these people are very successful, even in this horrible market. I applaud them and wish them the best of luck.

As for Me?.............It slowly began to suck my will to live!

I had to go. The tanking market was just a convenient excuse.

So here I am with my entrepreneurial spirit intact. Ready for my next great adventure. What will that adventure be I can hear you asking?

Affiliate Marketing on the Internet.

I'm putting in 5-8 hours a day while holding down a full time industrial packaging sales job.

It ain't easy!

However, affiliate marketing is really the way to go if you want to start an Internet business. It's the only thing I know of that you can start and "boot strap" up from scratch with very little capital investment.

What it will take is some time, focus and commitment. Fortunately, I have plenty of all three of those.

My goal is to start and build this thing up to the $200,000.00/year range and fully document the process on my blog

My hope is that I can be an inspiration and a beacon of light for some of my fellow Realtors who are still stuck in the quick sand of chasing that next commission check.

If it's something you love to do, more power to you and go knock em dead! If deep down inside, you can feel it sapping your life force. I urge you to run towards the light.........escape, close your eyes, grit your teeth and jump!

It's really nice over here in the real world.

Yours in Internet Success.
