Hello, I am Rob. I am a complete beginner. I am going to lead you guys through my apprentice days on this internet thing. This will be the first of 5 articles showing what's happening to me, and I think it is good stuff. Actually you are already a week late. But don't panic I will catch you up to speed quickly. I was a no internet person. Well I had dial-up. And even an email address. And I checked my mail about once a month. My computer was always the best, to play games on, you see. And I was happy. I was even quite cocky about the knowledge I had on computers. You know, holding my own in a conversation. Now I have always been an entrepreneur. Self employed. I am 48 years old and have only worked for a boss for about 5 years of that time. Phew. Truth be told I am really unemployable. To full of it, probably. My ability to earn an income has never been a problem. Staying with a small business idea and not getting bored once I see it working is a known issue. So what. I don't really care enough. Now here's what happened. I have had a small manufacturing business for about 12 years, and in between I often run new investments or small work from home things. For myself and for friends. Last year I dedicated almost entirely to doing art. Yeah, real art. Hey and good stuff too. Which was fine until some collection of boneheads totally twisted the world's economy on its head. Thanks guys. No problem. I had switched to a full time internet connection in June, and was planning to work on tidying up my existing website. But now I found myself in the deep stuff in December. So easy - get an internet business. Hell it must be easy, right. A lot of fools that I know have good websites that do bring them in a lot of business. So I searched through all the ideas, opportunities, work from home, surveys, investments, businesses for sale, cash schemes you name it. And there were so many. Now here was a challenge. I searched all the sites, thought up new words to search under, like passive income. Ha-ha, what a joke, I now know that many thousands of people use those exact words to search every day. Silly me. Still no problem. Free offers are scary, words like financial or advertising remind me of accountants and tax people, so boo to those. But I knew that I couldn't really trust anybody, and would have to learn the hard way, which is usually the most fun anyway. So I jumped in and bought my first e-book. This was a week ago. Yeah, and then my second. And then I hit the jackpot. I got one that I am so impressed with. Wow it feels like a year ago. And I was a different person then. Better or worse? Who cares? And so the sorry story of my learning and computer education has begun. And hence this rambling tale of exhaustion unfolds. And before you start to mutter and moan, yes I have started to be taught how to do these serious article letter things. And of course I know that this is all confusing and wrongly laid out. I still don't care enough. But it is your fault guys. I have been sitting in front of the nasty keyboard thing for 7 days, well actually 8, not getting any sleep. And every minute I discover that I know nothing at all. How the hell did I get to be this old and be so dumb? And as I realize what something does, so I also find out that there is more. Ack. And more. And things called html. What the dickens is html. Why can't you give it a name? Bah! I think I am going to go now, as it looks like my language is deteriorating fast. You will have to wait for my next article thing to see how and why I am going nuts. But I am not so stupid as to not leave a link to that site that was is and always be the jackpot site. Well I hope the link thing works. Maybe if it doesn't, one of you more cleverer types can find me and explain. http://androb.thebestbizreview.com/
